My great claw hand? The first prom photo I was in, I did the same thing. I didn’t know how to hold my hands, so I spread them over Jim’s, and it looked like a huge claw. I was 16. Not very dainty; rather arthritic looking, actually.
No, NO, NO !! I didn’t think that at all it was because yours and Steve’s hands were together and I felt I would like to give some time to photographing them entwined !
I think I want to be more dainty in my entwining…probably my perfectionism. It’s hard to look at photos of myself and not criticize something.

You needn’t tell me Scilla.. I am 15-16 kilo heavier than I need to be and have always been.. I really don’t like having my photo taken now..
Let us be kind to ourselves, though. I know that IRL we are lively, animated, youthful & beautiful!
Weddings can be a kind of relationship trial…the trepidation of meeting extended family seldom seen or completely unfamiliar, first impressions to be made, and all the social insecurities we carry with us…but I think we did pretty well. 🙂

Great. Ready to be framed! ♥
Well, I guess I’d have to print it first. 🙂 Haven’t had a hard copy photo made in a while…
