Ugly Ginny: Creepy Photographers Making Weird Faces Next to Gorgeous Brides, VOL 2

Yes, it’s time for another volume of self depricating photos!

A few months back I did this blog post (check it out if you haven’t already…) chronicaling the various embarassing photos I find of myself on my second shooter’s camera after a wedding. Lugging gear, being in time crunches, and in general standing next to hot brides leaves me looking… interesting? As a coping mechanism for my own self loathing, let’s share them with the world because hey… they’re pretty funny! And once again, I must stress that on a wedding day I am professional and do not look like this 99.9% of the time….

But… it seems as though my plan backfired. You see, I didn’t think that anyone actually was READING my blog. Then it started. My couples…. yes coupleSSS… not just one…. started demanding ‘Ugly Ginny Photos’ in their wedding galleries. Which is why I love the people who book me- their sense of humor is always awesome. But this isn’t why this has backfired.

Because you see, as soon as my husband first heard this request, his response was ‘OH don’t worry, we have like 20’. Good lord. Have we given him and my other seconds a new goal in life: take as many incriminating photos of Ginny as possible (of course, after getting the important shots for the day…)

It’s not lookin good, folks.

In the words of Juvenile, Girl you look good won’t you back that camera up. You a fine motherSHUTTER wont you back that camera up.

How was this not posed. Am I a fish? I’m reminded of that scene in monty Python’s Meaning of Life where the fish with man heads are swimming past the screen!

‘Don’t look at me’

I know there was a legitimate reason for me shooting up at some decor…. but seriously? Was it THAT hard for me to click the shutter? Something looks very strained….

‘Don’t touch my wife’

And finally…. the best. This is like a legitimately beautiful photo- the light is phenominal, Mike nailed it. And just the right amount of awkward Ginny creepin in on the side.

Ok…. I feel the need to explain that last one further, because its just so darn creepy! We were getting ready to do a shoes photo of just the girls feet, hence the reason why I was looking so pensively at their legs…. I swear there was a purpose.

But… I think this crop just really exemplifies my awkwardness:
