Engagement shoots
Engagement shoots in Sussex
I love photographing pre-wedding and engagement shoots. First of all, they are such a great way for the photographer to get to know the bride and groom. Furthermore engagements shoots build a nice a bond for the wedding day and engagement photos can also be used for save-the-date cards, for wedding invitations or simply as presents.
Here are some of my recent shots and my top tips for the engagement photo shoot session:
- Pick a special place. If picturesque it is a bonus 🙂
- Choose a look for the location. It is fun to coordinate outfits. You can be both smart, casual, boho, outdoorsy etc
- The main thing is to wear something you feel confident in. You will look fabulous anyway!
- Discuss clothes colours with your photographer. I normally recommend colours that go well together and compliment your location. Most of the time you can’t go wrong with pastell.
- Consider professional hair and makeup (fix hair – the UK is often windy)
- Bring a prop that symbolises the two of you. If unsure talk to your photographer
- Iron your outfits
- Leave your pockets empty. Leave, phones, keys, wallets behind
- Most importantly have fun 🙂
- Last but not least hire a professional photographer 🙂
