Here are a couple tips to help prepare for your engagement shoot!
-Try to do it on a weekday!! There will be less people/crowds killing the vibe at your photoshoot location!!
-Choose outfits with natural colors! They tend to photograph better & make your skin tones dreamier! Aka try to avoid neon colors or distracting patterns to keep the attention on your beautiful faces!!
-Dress according to the weather as best you can!! You don’t want to be freezing OR sweating your booties off!
-Ladies – use this day as your wedding make-up/hair trial day!! Nothing better than being pampered and relaxed right before a photoshoot!
-Don’t be afraid to include props! Motorcycles, puppies, musical instruments, champagne, you name it! This photoshoot is yours so make it as unique as you want!
“I found Toni on Instagram and I knew instantly that I wanted her for our engagement photos. Her style and eye for beautiful photos is unparalleled! When we first saw our photos, we were amazed at how they came out. I got emotional as we watched our slideshow and thought it so perfectly fit us as a couple. We both loved how Toni went the extra mile in making us feel comfortable. The whole experience was so much fun and I cannot wait to book her for our wedding. I highly recommend Toni for all your photography needs (:” — Melissa
