I Want to Take Engagement Photos ♡

Before the pre-wedding photoshoot, a couple who got engaged would like to challenge themselves with engagement photos ♡

In many foreign countries, there is a custom of having engagement photo sessions in stylish everyday outfits, rather than tuxedos or dresses, capturing natural lovey-dovey moments.

(In English, it is also known as the 'engagement session'*)

The engagement period flies by and is a super sweet time ♡ Being able to capture that period in photos is very precious, and engagement photos should become a trend in Japan as well*

In this article, we will introduce popular engagement photo poses from overseas, as well as those full of Instagram-worthy vibes,

showcasing poses and pictures that have a distinctly foreign flair.

Couples considering taking engagement photos should use these compositions and atmospheres as references ♡

If you're doing outdoor location photos, try a lying down shot too ♡ Rather than a posed shot looking straight at the camera, a natural photo of the couple relaxing taken from a third-person perspective is stylish.

As long as there are a couple in love, you don't need any elaborate shooting props*
