Engagement Session & Wedding Day Confident & Camera-Ready
Look your best. Feel your best. Love your photos.
When you feel good in what you’re wearing, it shows in every single frame. If you’re uncomfortable or second-guessing your outfit, that discomfort will come through in your photos—and I want you to love every image we create together.
Engagement Session Style & Confidence Tips
Fit is Everything
Clothing that’s too tight can emphasize areas you may already feel self-conscious about, while baggy or oversized pieces can make you appear broader and hide your natural shape. Aim for a flattering, tailored fit—something that feels “just right” when you look in the mirror.
If you’re debating between an off-the-rack option and something tailored, spend the extra money on the tailoring. A well-fitted suit or dress can instantly elevate your look and your confidence. It’s an investment that will pay off every time you look at your photos.
Polish Your Look
Wrinkles will instantly devalue your attire and your confidence, so take the time to iron or steam your clothing before your session. Just as important—use a lint roller prior to arriving, especially if you have pets. Stray hairs and lint can be distracting in photos.
Be Honest About Your Insecurities
We all have little things about our appearance that we notice more than anyone else—whether it’s a softer arm area, a feature you feel is more prominent, or even concerns about eye alignment in photos. Sharing these with me ahead of time allows me to be intentional about posing, camera angles, and subtle adjustments so those concerns fade into the background and the focus stays on your connection, your expressions, and the beauty of the moment.
Dress to Your Comfort Level
If there’s a part of your body you’re self-conscious about—whether it’s your arms, legs, or something else—consider wearing clothing that offers coverage in that area. When you feel more confident, you naturally relax in front of the camera, and that confidence is what makes the photos shine.
Timeless Over Trendy
Your engagement session is the first chapter of your wedding story. Think about how your images will look years from now. Choosing timeless, classic styles means that the wall art hanging in your home 20 years from today will still feel just as beautiful and relevant as the day it was taken.
Wedding Day Attire Tips
Your wedding day is the biggest stage for your photos, and every detail will be magnified—especially your clothing.
-
Prioritize Fit Early – Schedule fittings well in advance to avoid last-minute stress. Even the most stunning gown or suit can look underwhelming if it doesn’t fit perfectly.
-
Comfort Matters – You’ll be moving, sitting, dancing, and embracing loved ones all day. Make sure your attire allows you to move naturally so your expressions and posture stay relaxed.
-
Mind the Details – Crisp collars, smooth fabric, steamed veils, and polished shoes all photograph beautifully. Little details make a big difference in creating a polished, elegant look.
The End Result
When your attire fits well, reflects your style, and helps you feel confident, it allows you to be fully present in the moment—whether it’s your engagement session or the moment you walk down the aisle. My goal is to guide you toward clothing choices, preparation, and posing that ensure you’ll look back on your photographs with nothing but joy, pride, and love for the story they tell.
