Luggage: this adds a fun vintage look to your shoot. I love the prop and foot shot as well. Artistic photos just happen to be my all time favorite.

Fun Vintage Looks: love these darling shots with various vintage props! Balloons are a favorite of mine, but so is a vintage living room set up in the middle of the woods! Whatever you style is, there are so many unique ways to show it.

Music: music lovers can definitely appreciate incorperating records into their engagement shoot. Pick a record of a song the two of you love to add a romantic touch that is meaningful but still fun.

Fun and Flirty colors: Colors are super important to the engagement shoot. Picking cute props like these which enhance the colors you are wearing just makes the photo that much better. Find some cute areas and add in lots of flirty colors.

Vintage Car Shots: How amazing are these shots. I would love to have these as wall art in my house knowing that it is the two of us. We have become art! These are such incredible shots, you can’t help bur stare!
How amazing are all of these shots? See how much better an engagement shoot is with props.
What props are you using?? Fun, flirty, romantic, all of the above??

I love these, especially the last one! I’ve always told myself I would invest in a wonderful photographer because it is true that we become art. The engagement photo sessions I enjoy the most are the fun ones with lots of laughter and props and bright colors!

That couldn’t be more true. When art is the end result, it is a phenomonal reason to invest in one!

I love when they set up tables/chairs in the woods! If I was doing engagement pictures, I’d want to do something like that. We’re not because we got such amazing pictures of our actual engagement and we want to save that money towards pictures at the wedding!

A cool car, a great wardrobe and some props in beautiful and meaningful locations – the secret of a great e-shoot.
They don’t really do e-shoots like that in New Zealand and my photographer wants to get into it so we will do that together.
I am hoping for a jag 1962, an old desk with my 1950 typewriter on it, our 1930s gramophone and some outdoor locations both in the middle of nowhere and cityscape like.
Can’t wait.

Ya- I am not a fan of plain ones…but props make engagement shoots instant wall art and make them that much more interesting!

I really want to do something like this. My venue has a mini secret garden. I was going to do something like that at the venue, but there doesn’t seem to be a big enough place. I am going to find somewhere there though-I love the idea too much to not do it!
