HAIR CUT/COLOR


IF YOU'RE PLANNING ON CUTTING AND/OR COLORING YOUR HAIR, DO IT ABOUT 7-10 DAYS PRIOR TO THE SHOOT

MANICURE


There will MORE than likely be a shot of your ring on your finger, get a manicure. And while you’re out, pop into a jewelry store and get your ring cleaned so it’s EXTRA sparkly. 

Pick your outfit FIRST and make sure it FITS properly. Then coordinate your fiance’s outfit around yours. Feel free to bring an outfit change and we’ll change it up if time permits.

OUTFIT


You’ll want to make sure your outfit complements your partner’s so be sure to coordinate with each other. The one thing I see so often are clothing items that are too big or too small on someone. A GREAT fit really elevates the overall look.

Patterns



Don’t wear any crazy patterns or any thin stripes, they tend to photograph weird. really elevates the overall look.

jersey material



Don’t wear any free flowing jersey type of shirts/dresses. While SUPER comfortable, they tend to photograph oddly and are super unforgiving.

complementary




Clothes that complement each other adds great composition and dynamics to the images. Matching clothes doesn’t have the same impact.
