One thing that really helped me sanity-wise before the engagement shoot was us getting our hairs did. I had an appointment to have my hair cut the day before the shoot, and JP’s hair needed a little trimming. I thought it would be fun if we both got our hairs did in fancy land rather than just me. So, well, we did. Of course I took too many pictures of the event, but I needed to document JP’s fancy-salon experience! (I’m usually his hair cutter… or he also is…)

P’s cute feetsiesI entertained myself by shooting myself in the ball knob. Luke did my hairs first.

I think he was smiling over something dumb I said

All done! Hot stuff…

The super-awesome Luke of Vis-a-Vis, my regular hair dude, cut both of our hair on Saturday, then came over to the apartment to blow our hair out on Sunday pre-shoot. It was great, and really made me feel like a pampered rock-star. Great hair? Check. That was one less thing for me to be all neurotic-pants about.

Anybody else get a little extra pampered before engagement shoots for the sake of sanity (or fun)? Did you also get your fiance to join in on the fun?
