I don't have a very good pic of mine on my work computer. Here's one from our wedding and then the stock photo from the jeweler's website.
The diamond is from his great-grandmother's engagement ring. Sapphires are my favorite so he chose a sapphire band with a vintage look and its absolutely perfect. His has a tiny sapphire in it also

I don't have a good photo really either so using one from our wedding day. My engagement ring is 3 diamonds on a white gold band with rose gold swirl and 4 pink saphires on each side. When we discussed wedding rings I showed DH 3-4 rings I liked and he combined them all. It's a lot on a ring but I love that he had it made for me and wanted it to have everything I like. My wedding band is 3 diamonds that "cradles" the lower diamond.
Here's mine (and my husbands too LOL). I liked the look of the diamond in a halo, but I work with kids and always felt like the center diamonds sat too high and I would scratch a kid's eye out or something. My husband worked with the jeweler to select a diamond and halo that would work to have the center stone sit almost flush. As a bonus it looks like a larger solitaire from a distance!
ETA: the picture is showing up kind of blurry for me. Sorry about that!
My promise ring. Has three sides to it, representing past, present and futue. ♡

Nothing outrageously large but it is so special to me. The center stone is from my DH's grandfather's ring I apologize. I didn't have a good photo so I took this one this morning and of course it includes the worse paper cut of my life!!!

This is fun! Here is my set up. DH picked out the E-ring all by himself! I didn't even expect/want one, so it was a total surprise. I confess to liking it after all. We have matching wedding bands. I love the white gold/yellow gold combo. Anything quirky is my jam.
And I will never be a hand model. The one of DH is one of my favorite wedding pics. He doesn't wear his ring all that much because of his work, so I love seeing it on him!

Here's mine! It's a morganite, which is a type of emerald, which is mine and my husband's birthstone. So I thought that was a nice little touch. My wedding band is just a simple rose gold band. My engagement ring has an intricate design around it, so it was hard to find a wedding band that fit with it.

My Husband picked out my ring with no help. I told him I wanted something simple.. but he said the ring is a sign of how much the man loves the woman-so the woman has no say so in it.... Either way, he did good.
The blue topaz is my engagement ring. My brother-in-law actually gave my husband the ring to give to me as a Christmas present. We weren't even officially together yet. We were best friends, had been for years, and his brother was trying to help my husband realize that we were meant to be together. So he offered my husband this ring and as soon as he saw it, he decided he was going to ask me to marry him. We didn't even become bf/gf for another month. We got engaged 3 months after that.
The little band on top is my wedding ring. I don't wear my engagement ring much anymore because it gets so dirty. Hubby's ring cost more than both of mine combined and he never wears it because of his jobs. Lol.

It's actually 2 separate wedding bands on either side.
Here is mine! I love it. In person the morganite is more of a lavender.
