How to Prepare for An Engagement Photoshoot



It is such a beautiful time within your relationship, with you and your partner becoming engaged. Your mind is buzzing with the sweet words, the huge display of love and commitment that your engagement shows. You and your partner couldn’t be happier, and you now get to celebrate your new relationship status. So, what better way to honor your engagement than with a photoshoot?

Planning a photoshoot can be a great way for you and your partner to bond, all while getting gorgeous photos of you both beaming with pride. However, there are a few ways in which you can truly ready yourself for your engagement session.

We believe that every couple deserves a loving collection of photos with their fiancé. That’s why, here at Joseph Hummel Photography, we want to assist you in preparing for an engagement photoshoot. To learn how you can be fully prepared for your photo session, please feel free to continue reading for some wonderful insight:

  • Engagement photos are very important. Your engagement photos serve a greater purpose than just to fill your home and social media sites with gorgeous images. In fact, this can be an opportunity for you and your new fiancé to get to know your photographer. It also gives your photographer a chance to get to know you, and discover the best way to highlight your unique bond.

  • The perfect wardrobe. Your photoshoot attire is a crucial element within your photos. It will actually be used to complement your theme, the formality of your photos, and can even assist you in sharing the unique bond that your relationship showcases. For example, if you and your partner are both avid fans of reading, you can incorporate your favorite books into your photoshoot. Or, if you are both passionate about sports, you can wear your favorite jerseys for your session.

  • The right timing, and location. Location is important to the overall setting of your photos. Be sure to choose a location that complements the vision you have for your photos. But, keep in mind the time of day as well. If your location doesn’t receive the best light for a portion of the day, perhaps you should choose a new location. The amount of people that traffic your location presents is also another point to consider. Do you want other people present within your photos? Or, do you want your photos to just feature you and your fiancé? The aspects should all be considered.

Your engagement photos can be captivating with the aid of these tips. Here at Joseph Hummel Photography, as an incline village photographer, we would be honored to capture your romantic engagement photos.
