k, i have to wear these shoes tomorow to a wedding..but when i walk, my heels come up! how can i make it easi.

easier to walk in or fit better??
i dont really want to wear nylons – its really hot out and the shoes are open – toed!

what do I do with these nasty in laws?

I have been with my husband for 6 years now. Every year his parents seem to become more and more hateful towards me. I don’t know what to do to solve the problem and need some help.

I just turned 22 and they didnt even call on my birthday. They knew it was my birthday because my husband spoke to them two days before about pitching in for a hotel for our first year anniversary and my bday present. His mom agreed but refused to speak about it at the time because her spoiled rotten daughter was home and gets jealous easily, My husband let it go but they never called for our anniversary or my birthday and I just found it very rude.

Let me also mention that my husbands parents are not short of money. They make money hand over fist, Over ten thousand dollars a month off of an idea that I gave them. If it was not for my idea then they would be flat broke. I never said anything about it to them though. They have no mortgage or anything so its all profit except of course for the horses that they buy for pleasure riding and lessons which I think is just a total waste of money.

See, we are going through a very tough financial time. We have never and will never ask them for money but we don’t because they tell us flat our “we can’t help you” we are not in financial distress because we dont work. We are a very young couple starting out (22 and 24) My husband works a full time job and I work part time while going to school full time and have a part time kennel at home that I handle on the side, but school is expensive and we are just barely getting by.

On our wedding day they never helped with a thing and his father freaked out on us because his mother bought him a shirt from wall mart for 20 bucks. His father didnt even speak to us on our wedding day which really hurt because my parents were not able to be there. We had a very small wedding with only four people and they made us pay for their dinner, photography and everything. She even complained about having to do my hair which really hurt because my mom couldnt do it. I shopped for my dress alone.

When I told them I wanted to go to school to be a nurse they told me I could never be one and that it was a stupid idea. I finished my first year and I was on the deans list and they never even bothered to care. They never ask how school is going and when we told them we were having trouble getting a loan for school they told me at the dinner table I should either drop out or become a stripper. They call me lazy and stupid all the time and I just stay polite and try not to let it bother me. I dont know how to deal with it anymore.

Are they jealous because they have a failure daughter of their own? It has always seemed like they were trying to get her to compete with me or something.

Do they just hate me?

What should I do? Should I give it to them? What should I say?

PLEASE HELP
JUDITH — I dont think youre understanding the issue. When you get married your in laws become your family. They have absolutely no right to treat me or my husband the way they do. Do you honestly think it’s ok for them to tell me to drop school and become a stripper? Thanks for the crap advice… you must be a mother in law urself

How should I photograph in these harsh lighting conditions?

I’m going to be shooting a wedding in a few weeks. So far in my photography career I have been lucky enough to not have to shoot any weddings in unfavorable lighting conditions, but the one coming up, I have no idea what to do with because I’m going to be stuck as far as the location. It’s an LDS wedding. For those who aren’t familiar with LDS weddings, the actual wedding ceremony takes place in the temple–no pictures allowed. Because of this, it’s extremely important to the married couple to have pictures taken just as they exit the temple. After that it’s sort of traditional to take photos of all the family/wedding party/friends on the steps on front of the temple. They are going to be exiting the temple around 12:45pm, so the lighting is going to be atrocious. This is the Arizona sun we’re talking about, too, so it’s going to be harsh, super bright lighting. Once I get the initial exit photos done, I can just move to a shaded side of the temple and there won’t be a problem, but it’s the initial shots I’m worried about. I can’t use a reflector because the group will be too big. Worried about using a flash because the AZ sun is so bright already. It will be hard not to blow out details while filling in the shadows.

Any suggestions on best exposure and things for a situation like this?
First, these are all helpful suggestions, so who is the rude person going through and giving people thumbs downs??? Grow up!

Second, I just wanted to mention that I *DO* know how to adjust all the settings on my camera, thank you! I just have been lucky enough to never have to shoot in these kind of lighting conditions before (still can’t figure out how that happened with 6 years of shooting in AZ!), so it’s a learning experience. I just wanted tips on what people do for exposure and things, and people have been most helpful. :)

Would you wear either of these as a guest at a wedding??

Its the second weekend in September, at 3 or 4 in the afternoon, and it’s indoors. It’s not a real formal wedding, but it’s not casual either. I need help! I really like these two, but I’ve never been to a wedding, so I don’t know what’s appropriate. I like the first one (black and white), but can you wear black? Is there too much white to where the bride would get pissed? How about the brown and pink one? Any opinions help. Or, if you have a link to some cute dresses, let me know. Thanks!
