I know right now I'm guilty of this -Uh oh - I just realized my husband has been asking for the purse shots for THREE-POINT-FIVE YEARS. He bought me a beautiful triangle-shaped purse on a vacation in Italy that would be a fantastic photo prop strategically and tastefully placed to block TMI. When I see the purse, I feel guilty and a little sad, it's actually an awesome idea for a photo shoot. But since it involves just me "in the raw" and only a purse for coverage, I'm waiting until until I look _____ (fill in roving excuse: more thin, in better shape, more tan, etc). Ironically, at the time we bought the purse, I was about 12 pounds thinner & I look at photos from that trip and I realize I looked GREAT. (Dammit, why didn't I do it then?!) Well waiting to look younger isn't really an option, so I'd better suck it up and do the shoot ASAP!
