                   It’s always a little intimidating to have your picture taken .... and many couples may feel that they aren’t
                   photogenic, especially if they don’t have practice! My encouragement to each and every couple is that this is
                   not going to be like senior portraits. You get to spend two hours cudding and kissing your love, and if I do
                   my job right, it will feel relaxed and natural.   I realize that preparing for your engagement session can be

                   a little overwhelming.  Here are some tips for outfits and accessories that will make the preparation a little
                   more managable!
























               -  Don’t try to MATCH...try to pick outfits and   -  Most often, couples like to have one casual, everyday
               accessories that coordinate instead.              outfit and then one outfit that is dressier!  This will give
                                                                 your shoot two totally different “looks”.

               -  Don’t be afraid to be BOLD!  Accessorize and make
               your outfits your own! Scarves, bold necklaces and   -  Make sure you’re comfortable in what you’re wearing.
               fun shoes are always welcomed!                    And ladies, avoid super low cut tops, or tops with no shape,
                                                                 as it limits the number of angles I can shoot you from.
               -  MOST PATTERNS are actually ok.... however,
               graphics are not favorable for portraits.  If you’re   -  CELEBRATE!! Lots of my couples like to bring

               wearing a pattern, make sure it’s not overwhelming   champagne to pop or confetti to throw. This makes for
               and distracting.                                  super fun, candid photos, and it’s a great way to officially
                                                                 announce your engagement, or use on your save the dates!
               -  Be sure to check out my Pinterest boards for more
               inspiration if you’re having trouble!             -  Clean the ring! I love to shoot a few rings shots while you

                                                                 change outfits.
               -  Empty your pockets! Literally.  You don’t want to
               have key chains or phones showing through your    -  Relax! You don’t have to be a pro at this! I’m going to
               pockets. (This is for the guys especially!)       help you along the way and it’s going to be a blast! Enjoy
                                                                 this time together, and make a date out of it! Plan dinner
