What to wear on your engagement session

One of the first questions couples ask me about is “What should we wear?”

From my experience, i’ve found that a certain color, style, texture or cut enhances the way a photograph looks. The soft pastels and soft whites create a modern look, while a long dress that has a lot of movement gives your photographs a natural and romantic feel. Meanwhile strong colors (including black)and more structured garments add more drama and contrast to a plain bright environment which helps making things appear more formal…I’ve been thinking for a while about creating a helpful post for my brides to help them be inspired to pick their perfect outfit, i invited Vanessa a friend of mine to try out a few pieces i thought would be perfect for any engagement session.

Have a look, Hope you’ll love and hope you’ll be inspired to pick the right outfit for your engagement session with me :).

Keep in mind that many photographers aren’t stylists. Stylists are a wonderful resource that you can collaborate with to come up with the perfect wardrobe for your shoot. If these kinds of services are too pricey, companies like J. Crew and Nordstrom’s offer free personal shoppers to help pick out clothing that flatters your shape and complement each other…XO Love, Ina
