Friends.
I need your help.
We're getting our engagement photos taken next week and I haven't the slightest clue what to wear.
Oh wait, back up.
Yes, we're already married. But our wedding photography package included an engagement session. So now we're planning to go romp around downtown, smiling at complete strangers in nice clothes.
Call it a 'married for one year and two months' photo session.
We don't mind. I'm just happy we're finally getting around to this.
Other than my dilemma of course.
See, we're having our session downtown, in a bit more 'trendy' part of town. And while we're definitely doing the whole jeans/casual look, I'm hoping I can convince Adam to toss on a button-down so we can get some photos that might pass as a sophisticated couple.
Maybe.
So on the off-chance that we do have an outfit change, I want an amazing dress in my back pocket. One that is timeless, but flattering and hopefully not a huge hole in my budget.
So help me here. Am I going in the right direction? Or should I just be throwing something on from my own closet? What did you wear for your own engagement photos?

Those dresses are so cute! I had a friend who wore the outfit that she wore when she went out on her first date with her husband. If you don't have that outfit, you could always pick a rehearsal dinner dress, etc. I always like sentimental things! :)
Found your blog today! Too cute. I love all three but the second dress seems more fun and flirty for downtown!
Consider something with a bit more color. That was a tip from our photographer. But love the style of all three.
What Natalie said. Color will pop in your photos more. Especially if your husband is in a more typical button down. I do love the first dress, though.
I was beat to the punch! Yes, more color! Ask your photographer, but we were advised not to wear white (I know, crazy to tell you that when you just took crap-loads of pictures in a white dress just a year ago!).
Otherwise, I love the last two dresses. Super cute!
i love that first one. the top cross over is so pretty
Yep. Color. I AM a photographer and I always suggest my clients go for the pop. It makes you and your partner stand out from the scenery as a beautiful contrast. I love every single one of those dresses though so you should just go right ahead and buy them anyway:)
I don't know if it's already happened but I like them all. my fave is the second one though. have fun doing the e-session!!
