Fun and Gorgeous Engagement Photos in Naples

Since there was so much engagement talk last week, I had a few more amazing engagement photos that I wanted to share!

Astrid of Astrid and Rene Photography, a husband and wife photography team in Naples, FL, sent me these gorgeous photo boards of Sarah and Mike's engagement shoot. Astrid wrote, "Sarah and Mike really put the 'F" in fall and fun! Their wedding is this Saturday here in Naples, on the beach and then at Grey Oaks." These photos were shot in Sarah's neighborhood! It's beautiful, I would have never guessed it was a neighborhood!

They definitely look like they're a fun couple! I absolutely love photos with pets, and even more so, I'm loving the light in these photos! I can't wait to see their wedding photos! Thanks for sharing Astrid!

Farmer's Market Engagement Shoot by Studio222 Photography

A lot of people are going to be getting engaged in the next couple of months...I know of 2 from this week alone! I'm going to be doing more features on things that are engagement related to help the newly engaged couples along the way, so what better way than to start with a gorgeous shoot!

I love this engagement shoot by Studio222 Photography! Becka and Nate shot Megan and Justin at the Winter Park Farmer's Market on a Saturday morning. It's kind of like "a day in the life" of Megan and Justin! What a wonderful way to have an engagement shoot! That's exactly how it should be...just like you're living your life, doing something totally normal for you, and photographers just so happen to be there to shoot it! Perfection!
















I think it makes for super fun photos to be doing something or be somewhere interesting! What are some other ideas of things to do for an engagement shoot?

Engagement Photo Fun!

When I got engaged, I had hardly even heard of engagement photos. I thought it was just a few pictures that you took in a studio, and that was that!

When I started doing my wedding photography research, I was pleasantly surprised to find out what an engagement session really entailed. Different locations, outfit changes, seeing the true personality of the couple, and having fun- that's what engagement photos are really about!

An engagement session is a great way to get pre-wedding photographs (aka in normal clothes) and capture the excitement and love of your relationship. Your photographer should have some ideas of where to shoot if you don't already have some places picked out. It's always fun to have photos of the two of you doing something you enjoy, or even to include your pet in the session!

As I've been stalking phlogs the past few months, I've seen so many fun and different engagement photos! It makes me want to do another photo session...maybe a 1 year anniversary shoot?

I love the bicycles and the carousel! So much fun! Have you had engagement photos taken yet? Did you do anything fun and different for them?
