Engagement Photoshoot

Robyn Amos, 24 October, 2022 at 23:10 Posted on Etiquette and Advice 0 4
Hey Everyone


I’m having a mini meltdown. Our Photo package came with an engagement shoot- which is happening this coming Saturday. What do we wear? What do we do🤦🏼‍♀️ Also, Places in and around Bristol that would have amazing autumnal pictures. Thank you xx

    Abd breathe! your photographer should manage the shoot ad tell you how to stand/pose and i would hope they would have a few suggestions of where to go but think about woodlands or open parks with lots of trees for color. In terms of dress, is up to you. you could wear what you were wearing when he proposed, or just a nice dress and smart trousers/shirt for him whatever you feel comfortable in. Maybe give your photographer a call and explain youe stresses, I am sure they will help and calm you a bit. Hope you have a great day

    Wear what makes you feel comfortable and confident. And make sure you aren't wearing anything that clashes with what your OH is wearing.

    Your photographer should have some ideas of suitable venues, but think if there is anywhere that is special to you as a couple - e.g. a park you've gone for walks in on a date. As Charlotte says, give the photographer a ring if you are worried - they'll have heard it all before and will be used to answering questions from nervous couples!

    Hi! We also thought about arranging such a photo session, but decided that what would be at the wedding would be enough for us. But we discussed this idea with our photographer. He said that we can consult with him about clothes, and send him photos directly from the fitting room Smiley smile He also said that he would help us choose locations. He will also tell us how to get up, turn around, where to look - in general, he will lead the whole process. So don't worry! Make the photographer your best friend before and during photoshooting. It will be easier for him if everything is prepared as well as possible before the photoshoot. Good luck!

    Westonbirt Arboretum or Leigh Woods would be lovely for autumnal photos and not too far! Or it's nice around Clifton observatory and the suspension bridge if you're into getting those in the background!

    In terms of outfits (according to the Instagram black hole I need to get out of!) it might be a good idea to wear something quite classic instead of trendy so the photos dont age immediately but ultimately I'd recommend wearing something you feel comfortable in!
