Hey y'all,
I've been looking around for a good picture of Bradley and I to use for our newspaper engagment announcement. This is my favorite. It was taken when we all went out for my birthday this year. What do y'all think? (Be honest, I can take it!)

Thanks y'all
. I'm just concerned about using it for our official announcement b/c most of the announcements I see in the newspaper are full-body shots with something pretty, like the marsh or the beach, in the backround.

We won't put the announcement in the paper until June or so, but it doesn't hurt to start thinking about this kind of thing now!

This is a great choice! You two look so happy together and it reflects who you are much better than something more formal.

Wow, thanks guys!
I'm flattered! We're lucky to have one really good photo like that that we can print in the paper....most photos where Brad is in the picture include a beer bottle or something like that!

Although I agree that it is a darling picture (and you are both a couple of gooood lookin people) I do wonder about the darkness behind Bradley`s head...it sort of blends into his hair and looks like all the same color....and i wonder what that will look like when printed in black and white in the newspaper.
Just a thought....since you asked.

I think it's perfect! Very loving and nothing out of place--it even shows your ring! I think you can easily get someone to remove the two of you from the background and put you in front of something prettier if ya want.

Linda, you made an EXCELLENT point and that is definitely the type of critique I needed to make this decision!

A-ha! Another great point. Maybe this is my excuse to learn how to edit pictures better so I can do something about that pesky backround! Thank you!

I think it's great. You both look so happy and not posed- so to me it looks even more authentic than your usual wedding announcement photo. I say use it!
