In this episode, we explore the often-overlooked topic of post-wedding dissatisfaction through the lens of a recent bridal session with a client struggling with her wedding photos.

Despite having a beautiful wedding day filled with moments she cherished, she found herself grappling with feelings of disappointment once the reality of her pictures set in. I delve into the deeper emotional layers behind this dissatisfaction, drawing connections to body image and social dynamics that can often shape our perceptions, particularly in the age of social media.

Central to our discussion is what I’ve coined the "post-wedding mandate." It emphasizes the importance of actively reorganizing your social media presence after the wedding is over. Just as you might declutter your home post-holiday, it’s crucial to allow space for new interests and directions, moving away from the wedding-centric content that can perpetuate feelings of inadequacy.
