Engagement Photo Styling Tip 1
Incorporate a piece of your new life together. Your engagement shoot is one of the many steps leading up to your happily ever after with your lovely spouse to be. Wouldn’t it be cute to incorporate something into your shoot that will become near and dear to your new life together? We love the idea of using vintage cars, picture frames, etc. Photography: Stephanie Williams | Via The Wedding Scoop

Make a day of it! You’ve already spent the time to get all dressed up so why not make a day of your engagement shoot? Spend the day on the lake with a cute sailboat, or maybe at a fair. Just get creative and have some fun! Photography: Vicki Bartel Photography | See more here

Make it colorful/have a color scheme. Color can be a very powerful tool to utilize while planning your engagement shoot. Test out some possible combos for your big day or try something crazy that’s a little too daring for a wedding. Photography: Cassi Claire | Via Le Magnifique

Use words. It’s said that a picture speaks a thousand words. Since a picture already has so many why not add a couple more? Set the mood or tell a story with some cute 3D letters in your shoot.

Engagement Photo Styling Tip 7
DIY some props. One of the most popular ways to spruce up an engagement session is props, props, and more props!

Engagement Photo Styling Tip 8
Incorporate your lifestyle/hobbies. Your engagement should ultimately be a reflection of you and the things you love, namely your cute spouse-to-be! There’s always room for a little more love though, so think about including hobbies or passions into your shoot somehow. Photography: Taryn Rahl | Source: The Pretty Blog

Include pets. Your furry four-legged friends are definitely an important part of the relationship so it makes sense for them to be a part of the shoot. They’re undeniably cute as well so what other reason would you need? Photography: Clayton Austin | Via: Green Wedding Shoes We have found so many stunning engagement photos, and most of the time the bride to be is wearing a fabulous ring. It's amazing how many beautiful engagement rings we come across, like this Rubellite Ring 1/4 ct tw Diamonds 14K Rose Gold from Jared® The Galleria Of Jewelry.
Engagement Photo Styling Tip 10
Choose a destination engagement location. There’s no rule saying you have to take your engagement photos close to home. Were you hoping for a destination wedding but it just wasn’t practical for guests and budget? Take the opportunity to go there for your engagement session instead! Or just use it as an excuse to travel and get away with your spouse-to-be.
