Hi All,
Has anyone ever gone into to have glamor shots of themselves done. How was the photo shots and what was the results? I am thinking of having a photo shot as everyone who see me thinks I look go in a dress. My main worried is my thin hair on top.

Someone I knew did. They were told to show up en-femme and everything went normally from there. YMMV

Alice, I have a question for you. I saw in another post of yours (in a much more serious topic) that you go to a store in which a lady named Mary-anne helps you. I was wondering if you happen to be in the Pasadena, Ca area because I have been to a store that has an employee with the same name. Bieng a newbie to dressing and all, if this is the same lady. It would be nice to know that I could have a CG/TG friendly contact. Thanks! Sorry for posting off topic. :)

LOL!!! Thanks Alice. I could only hope! Unless she's on two continents at once, I really don't think that they are the same person either. <giggling> I had to ask because the lady that I've dealt with is sooo nice and seemed to know what was up. I haven't seen her scince christmas time so I haven't had the chance to let her know that the clothes I was buying were for me. Thank you again, and btw, how did the glamor shots turn out?

Hi All,
Just to let you know.
I DID IT.
is was a wonderfull afternoon and I tried on many different skirts and dresses. I though I looked great on the day and felt great when they said I looked like a woman. I have heard that many times before and that I look natural in a skirt/dress most notiably at my pink party. I am looking forward to seeing the results however it will take a bit of time for the phtots to return.

I was jumping for joy yesterday afternoon ;D ;D. I just could not contain my elation at the day. If my friends did not know before yesterday that I am TG and a bit crazy they certainly know now (no other workd besides crazy to describe how I was acting). I do not understand the why but I am certainly a lot happy when I just do it. I think the photo shoot was a great day as it proved to myself that my feeling of being TG should not concern me as I have a lot of feminity within me.
I am now looking to set up a pink party Mark II. Everyone will know by then I am TG and it will be an even bigger weight of my shoulders. I already have a pink top and white skirt picked out for the occasion. Sometimes things are just great.

Hi All,
I saw the photos last night and they where mostly great. I couple of them very feminine and I just need to shave/wax my arms as the next step. I will have them back in about 2-3 weeks and will update my avtar as soon as possible.
I lot of my focus yesterday seam to focus on how I looked. I was assure a number of times that I looked feminine, I carried myself in a feminine way and could pass as a woman. I asked how many guys could do what I did and she said that only a few and concluded that I am very feminie - espescially in the way I walked. Well it seams that some things come naturaly as I still do not know what I do to appear that way. However I enjoy wearing my skirts and it very much suites me.
Has anyone else ever had a preoccupation about how well they pass or is this just me? It seams like I am trying to justify why I love to wear my skirts however since it who I am in another sense there is nothing to justify.

The next bit of pressure (repressed excitement?) will likely be, "Oooh, I want to show my friends how I look." That may mean coming out to some well-chosen friends. Have fun and good luck.

I think that any one of us would honestly say that we would love to pass. For some of us it is a reasonable goal, for others it is pure fantasy. I do not go out dressed en femme very often, but when I do I try to pass. I am realistic enough to know that I do not pass very well, but I am enough of a dreamer to wish that I did.

Truth be know I think we all do.
:) Gillian tells me that I'm lucky I'm not a vampire. I asked why and she said "Vampires can't see their reflection in mirrors and that would drive you crazy". Ya, ya, she's sooooooooo funny :)

You look beautiful Alice. I'm sure you turn alot of heads.
I to have a preoccupation about how well I pass. I'm always double check to see if I walking right and ducking into the nearest bathroom to see if my hair and makeup look okay.
You shouldn't have to worry about it with how great you look.

The only reason I didn't discuss passability is because there is far more to passing than you can tell from a single picture. I also noticed the angle of the picture is not straight-on, but from above. I have noticed these types of shots tend to give a more feminine appearance. But as I said before, from what I can see, you look great.
