What To Wear For Your Engagement Photos
It's an exciting time in your Wedding Planning and you've made it to scheduling your Engagement Photos with the expectation that your shoot will be epic. But what to wear, where to go, how does it all work? Here are 10 easy tips to set you at ease when thinking about your Engagement photo shoot. Let's start with some commonly asked questions.
1. WHERE SHOULD I GO AND WHAT SHOULD I WEAR?
It's always a great idea to have a location or two in mind for your photo shoot. Do you live near a waterfall or near a picturesque park? Write down a few suggestions and be sure to coordinate your outfit for your location. Your stilettos aren't going to work well on slippery rocks.
2. SHOULD WE WEAR MATCHING OUTFITS?
It's trendy to wear coordinating colors that are complimentary but wearing matching outfits is considered a FAIL.
3. HOW FITTED SHOULD MY CLOTHING BE?
Want to look great? Super tight clothing or baggy just doesn't make the grade. If you have a rocking hot body wear fitted clothing. If you have some love handles that you want to minimize then layers flatter. Baggy is out and so is skin tight.
4. SHOULD I WEAR MY WEDDING COLORS?
Your Engagement photos have many uses, from Save The Date Cards, Gifts to Parent's and In-Laws, or for use as a personalized Guest Book. Wearing your Wedding colors or a hint of the wedding colors helps to Marry your colors to your Wedding. Very trendy!
5. SHOULD I WEAR BRIGHT COLORS?
Wearing colors that compliment your skin tone and wedding colors are a hit. Wearing super bright colors is definitely out.
6. SHOULD I WEAR THE NEWEST PATTERNS?
We all love a great houndstooth pattern but it doesn't always look great in photos. Close-up, maybe. If you must wear patterns then make them BIG, but not too much. Looking like wallpaper isn't trendy but pairing some patterns to solids is. It's also advisable to not advertise your favorite brands. Writing on clothing does not photograph well for Engagement Photos.
7. SHOULD I BRING EXTRA SHOES?
You might be doing a great deal of walking so be sure to have a pair of comfortable shoes to change into. Clothing that isn't your style or binds should be left on the hanger in your closet.
8. ARE MANY OUTFIT CHANGES RECOMMENDED?
Start out Dressed To Impress but bring a comfortable outfit that fits your style and personality. Let it shine through.
9. SHOULD I WEAR JEWELRY?
Adding tasteful jewelry can make you feel like a million dollars. It's your turn to shine.
10. SHOULD I POSE LIKE A MODEL?
Don't forget to be yourself. Your clothing, accessories and your favorite place should all reflect on who you are. Just imagine the fun you can have if you are comfortable with what you wear and where you wear it. The camera loves a great smile.
I hope these Top 10 Trendy Tips for What to Wear for your Engagement Photos were helpful. Trendy shouldn't take you out of your comfort zone.

We Turn Your Most Cherished Photo Memories Into Personalized Puzzle fun...
Many years ago I purchased a personalized puzzle from a company that had an impressive website and all the right images. The price was ridiculously high and the time that it took to receive the product was weeks from the time of order. When I finally received the puzzle I was so disappointed that I became skeptical of ordering online. The puzzle that I had paid a hefty fee for was extremely smaller than expected, as they never advertised a finished size on the product but had an impressive piece count that misled me. Not only that, it was thin as a matchbook! My disappointment stayed with me for a very long time...
I am a retired Special Needs teacher who used puzzles in the classroom. I am also a widowed Mom to the most incredible amazing son, Artie, who has autism and is my inspiration and helper.
My son was having difficulties with focusing and I thought that a photo puzzle of himself would help. Immediately, I flashed back to my experience and decided against it. The idea began to bug me so I opened my own company to correct all of the pitfalls of the industry. Our puzzles are made thick and with high-quality materials. After all, they were made for my son and he sets the bar pretty high! The idea was born out of love and continues to grow...
At The Missing Piece Puzzle Company, we specialize in turning your cherished memories into timeless treasures. With our passion for craftsmanship and commitment to excellence, we take pride in offering custom photo puzzles that capture the essence of your most precious moments.
My company has been reviewed by YouTube influencers DOPE OR NOPE, and of course, The Missing Piece Puzzle Company is DOPE! How fun is that?
It's also rumored that one of our puzzles made a trip to the ISS, unfortunately, I cannot officially confirm or deny... (That was epic!)
