Head Shot Help!

I apologize in advance for the pure vanity of this blog post but I can't decide and who better to ask then the people who have helped shape this brand :)

SO I was in need of a head shot and STAT for a few big things coming up. Unfortunately, my current iPhone snapshot of me on my wedding day just wasn't going to cut it any longer though I don't know if you'll ever get a more genuine smile out me... I was going to pay a professional but wanted to try it out myself first. I did just spend big bucks on a Nikon and hubs can take a decent shot so we headed down to the beach this weekend. The light was perfect and I just got an adorable fedora and ombre scarf from my friend Cooper at Hat Attack (talk about beach chic - you must visit their website!).

I'm deciding between these:

1

2

3

4

5

6

7

8
Again, I know it's vain and in a way I hated putting all these up but this is going to be spread all over the internet in a few weeks so I want it to represent me and Shorely Chic in the best way. So, which do you like of 1-8??

And thank you Brian for going to 5 different beaches until we found one with no people to save me from being embarrassed, and for taking all these pics while Jack barked his head off in the car waiting for us to be done :)

  21. You are beautiful Liz... not #1...there is something unnatural about your hand...# 8 shows maturity and sincerity...it's welcoming and says, "come take a look inside"...hope that helps !
