Engagement Photo Tips

It has been far too long since our last post! (sorry) With weddings and events winding down a bit between now and the holidays we are excited to dive back into our blog posts. We promise not to leave you hanging for that long again. So without further ado lets talk engagement photos! Are you taking your engagement photos soon? Already taken them? Here are some tips and ideas for you. 

 

INCLUDE YOUR FURRY FAMILY MEMBERS 

This one is a given. We all love and cherish our four legged family members, make sure to include them in such an important photo shoot. We think this Preserve couple nailed it when it came to including their pup.

MAKE YOUR PHOTOS WORK DOUBLE-DUTY

Get a cute holiday shot during your photo shoot for all your holiday cards that you will be sending to friends and family. And bonus you have a cute holiday photo of your first "engaged couple" Christmas. 

 

LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION! 

Choose a location that creates an interesting backdrop and you are sure to capture some stunning images. Natural settings are always winners. Think lakeside, mountain top, beach, a forest setting, rolling fields, pretty much anything that creates additional visual interest. 

Last but not least HAVE FUN! Try and relax and be yourself, much easier said than done! Take this as an opportunity to really get to know your photographer and his or her style. Ask questions, be silly, be open to different ideas, and trust the professional you hired to make you look stellar in your photos!
