    Hi Bees!

     

    We're shooting our e pics this weekend!

     

    We're going to our alma mater where we first met and started our story.

     

    Anyone have any ideas about what to wear??

    @Miss. Flutterby: I'd do two outfits. 1) Your school's colors/matching school sweatshirts. You're going back... gotta represent! 2) A sundress. It's summertime and there are fun cute dresses for every style and body type. Have fun! :)

    We did ours at my alma mater too! We ended up wearing jeans and gray shoes , and I wore a black shirt and he wore a light blue shirt, which were our wedding colors

    @hollygowedding: I love that idea of wearing our school sweatshirts. It might be warm but maybe for a few photos it could be all too cute.

     

    @MrsSl82be: oo I think we both own the color I'm thinking about using for the wedding. That's such a good idea too.

    @futuremrsmp: Thanks for the idea. I was wondering if we should do a dressy casual.

     

    Thanks Ladies. I'm going to have to go through mine and FI's closets and find stuff.

    Keep any advice coming.

    Maybe your school colors, or do you have old jerseys you could wear from your school or old School Tshirts with Logos/Mascots?

    Have a blast!!! xo

    My only piece of advice is to wear comfortable shoes. In our first session I wore heels that killed my feet... and rather ruined my mood. The photos would probably have looked better if I weren't in so much physical pain.

    I would think about the feel you want the photos to have- romantic?  Vintage?  Sporty?  As a photographer, I like to work with a theme.  I think dresses always look lovely.  I would suggest FI wearing a plain shirt and slacks if you have a print dress, or vice versa.

    Most importantly, wear something that makes you feel confident and like yourself- that will shine through.

    I think it would be neat to incorporate school colors / jerseys or something similar in some of your pics. Otherwise, engagement pics with a pop of color always catch my eye, or even something similar to what you'd wear everyday but with an extra pop or extra accessories, heels, something like that.

    Have fun!
