You're totally entitled to your opinion, I just think name calling doesn't support the disagreement you have with what ESB is saying. A lively discourse is better than throwing insults back and forth. <br /><br />Totally big of you to apologize. The other anon's comment about her self esteem also got me. It just doesn't have a place here. If she doesn't like what ESB says, then fine. Address that. Don't throw her character into the ring. Personal attacks do nothing for discourse and ultimately make the commenter look bad.Sharonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6468279200135971946.post-18946492408423184092012-05-03T15:50:11.408-07:002012-05-03T15:50:11.408-07:00I can't hate her because she is pretty or beca...I can't hate her because she is pretty or because she is wealthy or because her wedding is truly beautiful but i will hate her for buying the Chloe dress I could have bought for my wedding at half price overseas but didn't because I am an idiot.<br /><br />So now I am going to wear a burlap sack.

I'm a narcissist, sue me. I think over-choreographed e-sessions can be tiresome (think antique chest of drawers dragged into the woods for a styled faux tea party/boho picnic*) but this is pretty simple and the couple looks beautiful. I actually think it almost makes MORE sense that this shoot looks weddingy than not...seems related to the celebration more. Does that make sense?<br /><br />*We did an engagement session and it was kind of concepty.
