We took engagement photos yesterday. We were not aiming high on the originality front: beautiful fall day in a park, matching T-shirts, cutesy poses. Because I am extremely lame, at some point during the proceedings, I thought, “This is not going to impress the Internet at all.”
Then something magical happened:
Collin: “How many engagement photos do you think have been taken inside porta-potties?”
Louis: “By the end of today, at least one.”
[Photo by Louis Stein. Do us a favor and click on over to his blog and then click on some ads. He took our pictures for free yesterday, because I forgot to bring the negotiated payment of a four-pack of Red Bull. He deserves an influx of ad-click nickels.]

Bwahaha! You guys crack me up. This is fantastic. Please use it on your save-the-dates, or at least pretend like you did for my amusement.

YOU are magic. I am suitably impressed.
FYI, sometimes ad systems frown upon users being encouraged to click on ads…it might not matter since you’re urging people on Louis’ behalf and he’s not doing it directly himself, but just something to keep in mind.

Good to know. But also, weird, considering I think I only ever even look at internet ads when I am deliberately trying to do someone a solid. Maybe I’m weird?

And you totally should use it on your save the dates.

FYI, it was an extra-wide “accessible” porta potty. Which I’ve never actually seen before Saturday.
