What you wear depends on the location, season, and the overall vibe you're going for, but the biggest goal is to look like yourselves while feeling comfortable and confident. Coordinated outfits usually photograph better than perfectly matching ones.

Here are some ideas by style:

Classic & Timeless

• Neutral colors like cream, beige, navy, white, camel, or soft gray.

• For one partner: a midi or maxi dress, or an elegant blouse with tailored pants.

• For the other: chinos or dress pants with a button-down shirt, sweater, or blazer.

Casual & Relaxed

• Dark jeans or well-fitted pants (avoid distressed denim).

• Flowy dresses, knit sweaters, linen shirts, or simple tops.

• Clean sneakers, loafers, ankle boots, or sandals depending on the setting.

Dressy & Romantic

• Long dresses with movement (they photograph beautifully).

• A suit without a tie or a sport coat with dress pants.

• Rich fabrics like satin, silk, or velvet (season permitting).

Colors that photograph well

• Earth tones: olive, rust, terracotta, mustard, chocolate.

• Soft pastels: blush, sage, dusty blue, lavender.

• Jewel tones: emerald, burgundy, navy, deep teal.

• Creams and warm neutrals.

What to avoid

• Large logos or graphics.

• Neon colors.

• Tiny stripes or busy patterns that can distract.

• Wrinkled fabrics.

• Shoes that don't fit the outfit or are uncomfortable to walk in.

Coordinate instead of matching

Rather than both wearing white shirts and jeans, try combinations like:

• Cream + sage

• Navy + camel

• Blush + gray

• Olive + ivory

• Burgundy + beige

Accessories

• Keep jewelry simple and timeless.

• Bring a second outfit if your photographer allows it (one casual, one dressier).

• Consider a hat, scarf, or bouquet only if it fits your style.

• Make sure nails are groomed since close-up ring shots are common.

Dress for the location

• Beach: Light fabrics, bare feet or sandals, soft blues and neutrals.

• Garden: Florals, pastels, flowing dresses, loafers or dress shoes.

• City: Chic monochrome looks, tailored pieces, leather accessories.

• Mountains/Desert: Earth tones, boots, textured knits, layered clothing.

One final tip: wear something you've worn before and know you feel great in. Engagement sessions are about capturing your connection, and being comfortable tends to translate into more natural, relaxed photos

What makes my approach different is that I photograph every family the way I would want mine photographed. I know how quickly life changes, and I believe the little moments—the laughter, the quiet glances, the way your children reach for your hand—are the memories you'll cherish most years from now.

My goal isn't to create perfectly posed photos. It's to help you feel comfortable enough to be yourselves. I believe the most meaningful images come from genuine emotion, real connection, and the moments you don't have to force. That's what I'm drawn to, and that's what I love to capture through my camera.

These aren't just photos to me—they're pieces of your story, preserved so you and your family can look back on them for generations to come.
