Im obsessed with beachy vibes and bringing sunshine to your wedding by making YOU GLOW with confidence in front of the camera! (even if taking photos make you nervous)
Have you been feeling stuck on what to wear to your engagement session?! Then you need to read further. Recently, I had the incredible opportunity to photograph Paradise and Cole against the beautiful backdrop of Palm Beach Island, FL. They were dressed to the “T” for their photos, so I wanted to share some tips on what to wear for your engagement session to make sure you look amazing and feel absolutely fantastic like these two.
Coordination doesn’t mean you both have to wear the same outfit. Instead, select colors that complement each other. Think neutral colors and simple textures, you don’t want your clothes to distract from you!
Palm Beach Island is synonymous with beautiful beaches and tropical scenery. Light, airy fabrics and colors work wonderfully against the coastal landscape. Think sundresses, linen shirts, and other breezy attire that complements the relaxing vibe of the location.
Neutral colors like whites, beiges, and grays are timeless and photograph beautifully. Pastels and soft hues also work particularly well for engagement sessions, especially in serene, seaside settings. These colors highlight the beauty of the couple without overwhelming the natural backdrop.
While a subtle pattern can add visual interest, it’s generally advisable to avoid bold patterns or logos that can distract the eye. Solid colors tend to be more flattering and ensure that the focus remains on the couple.
While it’s easy to focus on the main outfits, don’t forget the importance of good footwear. Palm Beach Island’s sandy shores might invite you to go barefoot, which can be incredibly romantic. However, if you plan for a more formal look, make sure your shoes complement your outfits and the setting.
Accessories can add a touch of personality to your look but keep them balanced. A delicate necklace, a stylish belt, or a pair of classy earrings can enhance your attire without stealing the spotlight!
Above all, choose outfits that make you feel comfortable and confident. If you’re comfortable, it will show in the photos. Engagement sessions are meant to be fun and relaxed, so wear something that makes you feel great and allows you to move freely.
Your engagement session should be a fun, memorable experience that truly encapsulates your love story. With these tips on what to wear for your engagement session, you’ll be ready to create unforgettable moments! If you’re excited to book your own engagement session or have any questions, don’t hesitate to get in touch. Let’s work together to craft images you’ll treasure forever!
Paradise and Cole were a joy to photograph, and I can’t wait to capture their wedding later this year. Remember, the most important thing is to be yourselves and let your love story unfold naturally. Happy planning!
