I sounds like you may be worried about wedding pictures, or maybe you just want to be perfect for your spouse. :lol: I had some really screwed up teeth. You can see my clincheck movies that I linked to in my signature. I can tell you that my smile in pictures used to be horrible, but in less than a year I think my smile in pictures looks nice. I still will need refinements mainly to get my bite correct and make a few minor adjustments, but these things don't show in photos.

So I would say if all you care about is photos, then Invisalign will improve your teeth enough in a year to look better in pictures and you won't be stuck in braces for pictures even after your teeth are done moving. But you really should consult with some orthos or dentists.
