From Casual to Glam: Outfit Ideas for Your Engagement Shoot

As a Wausau, Wisconsin engagement photographer, I understand that one of the most exciting parts of planning your engagement shoot is selecting the perfect outfits. Your choice of attire can truly transform the look and feel of your photos, making them unique to your love story. Whether you're leaning towards a casual and cozy vibe or going all out for a glamorous and elegant session, here are some outfit ideas and style tips to guide you through the process.

1. Casual and Cozy:

For a relaxed and intimate feel, opt for comfortable yet stylish outfits. Consider pairing jeans with cozy sweaters or flannels. Neutral colors work wonderfully in this setting, creating a warm and approachable atmosphere. Don't be afraid to show off your personalities through your clothing – your engagement photos are a reflection of your unique connection.

2. Rustic and Natural:

If your engagement session is taking place outdoors, embrace earthy tones and flowing dresses. Think about incorporating nature-inspired colors like olive green or deep brown. Flowy boho dresses or outfits with textured elements can add a touch of whimsy and romance to your photos, perfectly complementing the natural backdrop.

3. Elegant and Glamorous:

For couples who want to add a touch of sophistication and elegance to their engagement photos, consider something that leans more into the understated drama. A beautiful flowy dress is perfect way to do this!

4. Themed and Playful:

If you have a unique theme in mind for your engagement session, let your outfits reflect it. Whether it's vintage, retro, or even a favorite movie-inspired style, go all-in on the theme to create playful and memorable photos.

Most of my clients like to use their complimentary second outfit to bring versatility and variety to their engagement session. It’s a great way to show multiple sides of you as a couple!

Your engagement shoot is a chance to celebrate your love story, and your outfits are an essential part of that celebration. Don't forget to have fun with your choices, and let your personalities shine through. Whether you're opting for a casual, natural, or glamorous look, I'm here to capture the beauty of your connection, no matter what style you choose.
