Engagement Photos to Commemorate Your Engagement ♡
Congratulations to the brides-to-be who have decided to get married ♡ From now on, there will be plenty of wedding-related events like family meetings, registration, and pre-wedding photoshoots. The busy bride-to-be period is about to begin!*
Before all that, there is one more event I want you to schedule. That is the engagement photo shoot ♡ Engagement photos are pictures taken by engaged couples in casual clothes.
The charm of engagement photos lies in the ability to capture the natural selves of the couple* After getting married, you may want to look back together with your partner and say, "We used to date like this," or "We were so young," while enjoying the memories♡
Engagement Photos Have Many Charms ♡
Since engagement photo outfits can be casual, the costs are lower compared to pre-wedding shoots* Moreover, you can use these photos for your wedding video and paper items, so it's definitely worth capturing them♡
Now, you might be wondering how to take wonderful engagement photos ◎
Here, I will introduce four recommended ideas to emulate when taking engagement photos♩ Be sure to create lovely engagement photos with your partner!*
Engagement Photo Idea 1: Matching Outfits
Many couples opt for casual matching outfits during their engagement photo shoots ♡ By coordinating colors and combinations, you can maintain your everyday style while creating beautiful photos*
Even couples who don’t have matching clothes can simply purchase basic knits or shirts from stores like Uniqlo or H&M♡
The idea of matching accessories is also lovely* Consider coordinating items like shoes or hats, and incorporate those into your engagement photos♩
Engagement Photo Idea 2: Feet Shots
Feet shots are popular in both pre-wedding and post-wedding photoshoots ♡ Since faces are not visible, it creates a stylish and romantic atmosphere♩ This type of shot is also easy to use for videos or paper items♡
An engagement photo where the bride hugs her partner from behind ♡ You can really feel the love between them* One can’t help but imagine the happy expression on his face♡
A feet shot capturing the moment when the bride is on her tiptoes to kiss her partner ♡ It has a stylish feel, like something out of an international poster* I want to wear my favorite heels for the engagement photo shoot♩
Engagement Photo Idea 3: At a Meaningful Place
Where is the best place to take engagement photos?* Scenic tourist spots or large parks are nice, but the best recommendation is to take photos at a place that holds memories for both of you ♡ Every time you see the engagement photos, you'll remember the feelings from back then*
If you are a couple who went to middle or high school together, capturing photos in the classroom would be lovely ♩ Shooting along your commuting route is also a great idea◎
Let's capture lovely photos in places filled with memories, like the city where you often go on dates, the location of the proposal, or a city you traveled to together♡
Engagement Photo Idea 4: Lovey-Dovey Shots
Lastly, let me introduce some lovey-dovey shots unique to engaged couples ♡ Try poses that you may feel shy about typically, and create engagement photos bursting with happiness*
Recommended poses include carrying each other, resting your head on their lap, or kissing on the cheek—these poses convey your affectionate relationship. You will surely feel warm looking at the happy expressions in the finished photos♡
