Re: Engagement Pics Outfit?

I found this article on the blog of my Boston photographer, which I think is good advice:

Since it comes straight from a photographer, I'm assuming she knows best!

There are pics in my album. I think it depends what 'look' you are going for. If you want formal, beach, casual, trendy, etc.

I just bought my outfit!! I was going for a casual fall look so I bought a black sweater to wear with blue jeans and black ankle boots, my fun accent is a deep red scarf with orange birds on it..
I was torn between dress or no dress also but in the end I went with what I knew I would be comfortable in

I wore skinny jeans, heels, a tank top plus a cardigan for our 'formal look'. Then took off the cardigan and switched from heels to flats for our 'casual look'. It worked out great bc now we have 2 different looks that took us 2 min to change!

Here is a link to what I wore:

We did them in Disney so I had an outfit all planned out for the both of us but it was FREEZING the morning of. Who knew Florida could be sooo cold. I wasn't supposed to wear the white jacket and Ryan was supposed to wear blue plaid shorts. This is what we ended up wearing and I think it worked.

Re: Engagement Pics Outfit?

Mine are in 3 weeks. I want to stay true to who we are on a daily basis. Something casual yet fashionable and fun. Something timeless..

I just ordered jeans and a top for me (lets hope I love them) and once I finalize what I'm wearing, we can work on FH - he's WAY easier than me!

I ordered:

This Top

These jeans (although I may not want to wear ripped jeans for the shoot)

I have these shoes

and I'll prob wear some colorful chunky necklace

For FH - He'll prob wear dark jeans and a pale pink or white button down.

Very cute!! FH is an issue .. he is a jeans and tshirt guy and barely has any button downs!
