As I was going through my recently uploaded outfit shots, this one of my husband just made me giggle ...mostly because, he's carrying my bag ...like it's his bag. But also because of the face he's making ...quietly saying "come on already I just want to be done".
The husband takes my outfit shots now/again my bro was my photographer for a while ...but since the husband has no desire to be a photographer, I set up the shot and adjust my settings on my camera while he is my stand in. Then I make him stand exactly where I was standing, show him the previous few shots I took of him so he knows what I want the background to look like, and then we proceed. He's not a huge fan of this process, especially because I'm a ridiculously insane perfectionist and bark orders at him ...but he does it for me, patiently, three days a week.
...I love him so much, it's ridic.
My husband is a sports-watching, video-game-playing, comic-book-reading, writer-nerd ...and he dresses accordingly ;) He is wearing a Mass Effect T-shirt, Marc Ecko shorts, one of his 100 pairs of Adidas shell-toes, and Ferragamo square aviators. We don't always agree on fashion but do allow each other to dress as we choose ...though we do ALWAYS tend to agree on expensive sunglasses. :)

aww so sweet! i hope i find that kind of love someday :)
This is so cute! Totally reminds me of how my bf is sometimes when I make him hold my stuff while we're taking photos.
xo, alison*elle
Aw this is such a sweet post! Kind of hilarious at first, but it's really touching at the end... You guys are a perfect couple, so perfect for each other:)
Aw, mad props to you patient sweetie of a hubby!
Your hubs is adorbs!!
Awww how adorable :)
x
I love him.
Is that inappropriate?
:)
Nerdy guys are the best (in bed).
Very handsome (and patient) husband!
Aw you guys make such a cute couple I bet having you around is a lot of fun, yay for him liking expensive sunnies, now I know you both have great shades!

So sweet! My husband doesn't like to take pics either :))
haha my boyfriend carries my bag like that too. and he actually loves dangling it off his forearm/wrist like us girls/women. sometimes i'm not sure if he's just joking around so it can be a bit worrying. he seems to enjoy it a BIT too much and sometimes even offers to take my bag without me complaining about how heavy it is! lol. anyway that picture of your hubby is really cute :) xxx
What a keeper! Not only is he a looker but he also is patient and agreeable! Winning! :)
Aaaaaaaaaaaa! Girl, you are BRILLIANT!!! That's what I need to do with my man - photograph him first at the exact spot. He would most likely hate me, but I will refer him to your post if he does... Your Mr deserves a medal and a kiss for his patience AND carrying a girl's bag. x
you guys are really fortunate to have each other and you are one lucky lady to have a man looking so handsome even with a handbag.
amazing couple just keep on loving each other:)
I always wondered how you got your shots! My fiance is really patient with me but I'm really not with him... I know what I want the photo to look like and he just can't get it right haha.
This is a great way around it... less arguments I would imagine... fabulous!
Minus the sports-watching, you described my boyfriend to a T haha
nice post, i so much recognize this process of how my boyfriend and i take outfit shots
love this post!! I know my hubby would do the same!
I get this look all the time from my boyfriend, the "really? really?" I know this is my first post, would it be moving too fast to say that I think i love your blog? I mean really really love it! Keep up the good work ma'am!
Love this :) You guys seem like a great couple that has fun together and is really in love...kudos on your successful marriage!
Love this post. My husband IS a photographer, but he also gets irritated with the way I bark orders, so I haven't even been able to get him started on regular fashion shots. Go your man for doing it!! And love this shot of him carrying your bag.
so sweet! HIM and your post!
I am so glad to know I am not the only one whos husband doubles as a photographer! We are lucky to have such supportive spouses! Very cute!
this is exactly why i rarely ask the boy to take pictures of me. he has little patience when it comes to me and my anal ways re: photography. hence why i love this post. your husband's face in that picture is classic. husband of the year goes to him. nuff said.
um, this pic and your commentary made me LOL!!!!
I love that you said ridic. ! One of my fave expressions.
Your Marriage makes me want to get married. You two just seem so totally happy together. Isn't it great to find a man that loves you so much he'd willingly be photographed holding a purse (a very fashionable purse) but a purse none the less. LOLZ!
that is adorable! at least he has the patience to stand there, even with that look on his face!
I have been following ur blog for quite some time now...
I have never left a comment before...
But this, is just too funny...hahhaha
I see this pic and I see my husband...
He goes through the same thing...
He takes my pics...and he sometimes makes the same face ur husband is making...
I guess all bloggers husband goes through this...
xx
I think you've tapped into the collective style blogger unconscious here because I know I go through the same thing. I've actually started leaving my husband in the car with a book while I snap my photos- less snarky comments occur that way. Not that he doesn't try... but I'm a perfectionist too. But no matter what role they play in our OOTD photos, our husbands patiently wait for us to find an outfit, apply makeup, change outfits, change shoes, layer on jewelry, then take outfit pics... and all before dinner. They're angels. I think it's sweet you devoted a whole post to your man.
super sweet!
the things love gives us the patience to do.
you've got a keeper.
A man who can carry his woman's bag is my kind of man.
i think your husband is so sexy and that beard makes him look extra good,
no offense to you i'm just saying
such a sweet shot :)
xo
Maegan, it was a totally surprise for me! I thought yr hubby was a great photographer! Now, u told me he doesn't like to shoot, instead, you create all the scenery for the photos, and it just clicks on the machine! Lol! Now, I know it´s not only me that do that with hubby...hehehe...

Not many left like him to go around.
