Engagement Pictures (Round 2)

Even though we booked the limos we want last week, I'm stillll waiting for our limo company to fax us back a clearer, and legible contract before anything is officially signed. We have the cars we want, they are ours...I just can't post with a clear conscience until the contract is fully and completely signed and filed away for fear of jinxing it. So, though I have a post on the limos we chose completely ready to go, it will have to wait for tomorrow or next week.

In an effort to post at least twice a week, I now give you "Engagement Pictures Round 2." I know, I know...more pictures?? Please understand this is not in an effort to show off more pictures of...welll...us (only sort of, maybe..no...). There simply are a ton more pictures that I didn't like at first, but have been obsessively editing and playing around with on picnik.com, and I like them soooo much better now.

Firstly, picnik.com is awesome.

It's very simple to use, and you can do whatever you want to with the file: upload it to twitter, facebook, your picasa web albums, google buzz, or save directly to your computer. I highly recommend this website if you ever have to do any photo editing, or just want to make a picture black and white, sepia or other colors. You can pay to use all the features they offer, but I use what's available for free and it's definitely more than enough for what I need to do. Picnik has so many options to play around with for photo editing. Some of the options are really weird and goofy and I would never actually use. I found myself setting up most my pictures kind of the same way after awhile...a vintage 1960's look. I plan on including a lot of these edited photos into our guest book that I am making through blurb.com. A lot of these are duplicate pictures from my first engagement picture post if you want to click there to see how I edited them to look different.










 


That's it! I promise I won't make you look at 54,000 pictures of Chris and me again UNTIL AFTER the wedding!!

Such a good looking couple. I still love that pic of you against the wall. I like the perspective in the pic of you and Chris holding hands. I also remember you sent me the link to picknik a long time ago and it really is easy to use. If I can navigate it anyone can!
