They’ll help you get your best angles and share some tips, including how to pose, so you’ll be prepared for your wedding day photos as well.

Here are 3 simple tips to get those perfect engagement photos:

Tip #1: Choose a nostalgic location your familiar and comfortable with

Engagement photos do not have to be traditional. Its to celebrate your new engagement to the person you love so a favorite nostalgic location is best. It will help you and your boo be more comfortable and natural being in a more familiar environment rather than someplace you’ve never been.

Tip #2: Go with neutral outfits

Neutral outfits are the easiest to wear so that you can shoot at multiple locations without worrying about contrasting or conflicting colors.

Tip #3: Still nervous about the photoshoot? Have a drink!

Yup, sometimes sipping on a cocktail just before the shoot will help you loosen up if you need. Its important to relax and have fun with your engagement shoot so you avoid that awkward school photo day smile for your engagement photos.
