As I've countlessly mentioned a thousand times in the blog, not everyone is comfortable with the idea of prenups, myself included. In fact, my husband and I totally scratched this idea and never had a prenup. Instead, we created a Wedding Documentary chronicling our entire wedding preps from the time of the proposal down to the very last night before the big day. Speaking of Wedding Documentary....have I shared this video in the blog? Hmmm.....but anyway back to this particular feature.
So when Geli shared with us her similar dilemma and what she eventually came up with, I couldn't help but applaud her and her fiancee for sticking to their own beliefs and doing something that felt authentic to them.

"Pre-nup photoshoots have become a staple these days, and almost everyone expects couples to do that. But as much as we want to skip that because we're both camera-shy (me, just a little), we decided to compromise and come up with something to present to the public--we did our own pre-wedding photos. :) Though we find other couple's pre-nup photos fun, it's just not our cup of tea.
We want to like the idea of it, but pre-nup shoots look staged most of the time--I mean, we don't go picnicking in the middle of nowhere, bringing luggage, books, and SLRs on normal days--and imagining ourselves to be in that 'staged' situation with a stranger photographer as paparazzi just makes us feel very uncomfortable.
