Your engagement photos are not just about creating the perfect image for your save-the-date or wedding website; they should tell the unique story of your relationship. In this blog post, we'll explore the importance of authenticity in engagement sessions and share tips on how to pick the perfect locations based on your interests and personalities!

Choosing an Engagement Location Thats Authentic to You

The Foodie Couple

If you and your partner are food enthusiasts, consider incorporating your love for it into your engagement session. Choose locations like a vibrant food truck, a charming ice cream shop, or your favorite burger joint. Let the photos capture the joy and connection you share over a shared meal, making the session feel more like a romantic date.

Music Lovers

For couples who share a passion for music, a record store can be a dreamy location. Surround yourselves with your favorite tunes, explore the aisles together, and let the music set the tone for your engagement session. These photos will not only reflect your love but also showcase your shared interests.

Downtown Enthusiasts

If you and your partner enjoy dressing up and hitting the town, consider a chic bar or a downtown area for your engagement session. The city lights and stylish backdrop will complement your sophisticated style, and the photos will capture the glamour and excitement of your relationship.

Outdoor Adventurers

For couples who prefer a more laid-back approach, a session in the great outdoors could be perfect. Choose a local park, a scenic trail, or even your favorite spot to enjoy nature together. These photos will showcase your love for the outdoors and each other, creating a relaxed and authentic atmosphere.

Cozy Homebodies

If you find joy in simple pleasures and intimate moments, consider an in-home engagement session. Capture the warmth of your relationship by playing board games, cooking together, or enjoying a cozy night in. These photos will reflect the comfort and love you share in the private moments of your life.

Lia + Jake’s Personal Engagement Session

Lia and Jake's engagement session at Robin Hill Park was an absolute joy to capture. Having met them at my church, I couldn't help but become their self-proclaimed #1 fan from day one. I jokingly told them that if they ever tied the knot, I'd be there with a foam finger raised high at their wedding! To my delight, they not only embraced my quirky enthusiasm but also entrusted me with documenting their love story through their engagement session and wedding.

Lia and Jake are not only the cutest couple, but they are also the nicest and most genuine individuals one could meet. I wanted their engagement photos to mirror their personalities, ensuring that each frame captured the authenticity and warmth that defines their relationship!
