Montana Engagement Photos: A Guide to Outfit Ideas and Inspiration
Choose outfits that complement the natural surroundings.
When planning your Montana engagement photos, it’s important to choose outfits that complement the natural surroundings. Think earthy tones, cozy sweaters, and boots for a rustic feel, or flowy dresses and light fabrics for a more romantic vibe. Avoid bright colors or patterns that may clash with the natural scenery. Consider the time of year and location when selecting your outfits, and don’t be afraid to incorporate accessories like hats or scarves to add some personality to your photos.
Consider the season and weather when selecting clothing for your Montana Engagement Photos.
Montana’s weather can be unpredictable, so it’s important to consider the season and weather when selecting your engagement photo outfits. No matter when you are planning your Montana engagement session, be sure to wear layers. Things can change on a dime and you need to be prepared!
If you’re planning a winter shoot, opt for warm layers like wool coats, scarves, and boots. Also, remember to wear long underwear. We will do our best to keep the car warm and have some hot chocolate on standby, but if you feel cold, you will look cold in your photos.
For a summer shoot, choose light fabrics like cotton or linen and avoid heavy layers. Keep in mind that Montana can be windy, so avoid loose-fitting clothing that may blow around in the wind. And don’t forget to bring a backup outfit in case of unexpected weather changes.
Coordinate with your partner for a cohesive look.
To make the most out of your Montana engagement photo session, it’s important to coordinate with your partner to create a cohesive look. This doesn’t mean you have to match exactly but rather choose complementary colors and styles. For example, if you’re wearing a patterned dress, your partner could wear a solid-colored shirt in a coordinating color. Or if you’re wearing a bold color, your partner could wear a more neutral color to balance out the look. Remember, the goal is to create a harmonious and visually appealing photo.
Add personal touches to make the photos unique.
While coordinating your outfits is important, don’t forget to add personal touches to make your engagement photos unique and special to you as a couple. This could be incorporating props that have special meaning to you, like a vintage car or a favorite book. Or you could choose a location that holds sentimental value, like the spot where you had your first date or where you got engaged. These personal touches will make your photos even more meaningful and memorable. One of my all-time favorite sessions was when a couple styled their session around their passion for fly fishing. No matter what you choose, the photos should reflect your personality and relationship. They shouldn’t look like some generic Instagram photos. For each engagement session, I offer I work with my couples to style the experience to perfectly reflect their relationship.
Don’t forget about accessories and footwear.
When planning your engagement photo outfits, don’t forget about the accessories and footwear. These details can really elevate your look and add some personality to your photos. Consider adding a statement necklace or earrings, a stylish hat, or a fun pair of sunglasses. And don’t forget about footwear – choose shoes that are comfortable and appropriate for the location, please avoid high heels. While these may be cute, they are also very dangerous!
Choose a photographer you trust
