Engagement Shoot Question

Hey Girls

I want to do my engagement shoot but have a question... what would you do?

We got engaged on Christmas eve and we both LOVE Christmas, we go all out for it and its such a big holiday.

Would you take your engagement pics around christmas time at Rockafella Center
Or
this summer on the beach? I love summer and we are getting married in July and I love the pics on the beach (scared about frizzy hair though).. I'm so confused!!! HELP!

Re: Engagement Shoot Question

If you like christmas and that is when you got engaged, I'd go for that time of year. I think taking a picture in Rockafella Center would look amazing!

Re: Engagement Shoot Question

I think you should do Christmas time, especially since you got engaged at that time. The pictures would be beautiful!!!

Re: Engagement Shoot Question

hmm, that's a tough one.
Christmassy pics could be so cute
.. i can picture you guys bundled up in cozy scarves sharing hot cocoa!
But on the flipside you would be dealing with the cold weather and runny red noses

IMO i think i would go with the beach pics. You can be more playful and really see you and your fi as opposed to you guys covered in clothes.

But i am sure you guys will have great pics either season!

Re: Engagement Shoot Question

Rockafella sounds like an awesome idea, my only thing is the constent crowd surrounding you. It might be hard to take a bunch of professional pictures with people walking in front of you and everywhere else. For me, I wanted to make sure we wouldn't have to wear any bulky jackets in our photos. If Christmas is really a huge thing for you guys then don't let anything else determine you decision.

That was one of my worries also, there are TONS of people there all of the time. I would have to do it during the week I guess but there are still crowds.

Re: Engagement Shoot Question

I voted for the summer. While Christmas has special meaning for you, Rockefeller Center is a crowded mess during the holidays and you'd have a tough time getting good shots that don't have 1,000 people in the background.

Re: Engagement Shoot Question

We're doing summer time shoot because we want to use pictures on our STDs, and need to send them out next fall.

Re: Engagement Shoot Question

I would do x-mas b/c that the time you got engaged. It would probably be nice to look back and remember your engagement at around the same time of year it was.-If that makes sense.
