5 Tips on Inspiration for a Forest Inspired Engagement Shoot

1) Pick the Location: Make sure you pick a place that has plenty of light, security and is regularly sprayed for bugs. We love outdoors in the South but definitely not bugs.

 

2) Select a Photographer: Make sure to select a photographer who focuses on a natural style of photography and has experience taking pictures in the elements because you never know what may pop up in the woods.

 

 

3)Select a Color Theme: A color theme is a great way to create a look for your shoot and to determine your style as a couple. Incorporate these colors into your makeup, outfits, and decor.

4)Bring Along Some Treats: An outdoors shoot can take quite some time and you will likely not be near a restaurant for a while, be sure to bring a long some sweet treats to keep you going throughout the day. You could also order some sample cakes from your wedding baker and use it as an opportunity

 

 

 

5)Incorporate Nature: Whether through your design or fashion style, be sure to incorporate nature into your engagement shoots. Everything in the forest is an opportunity for decor.

 

 

Extra Tips

1)Bring Bug Spray!

2)Get airbrush makeup to stand up to the elements or go all natural.

3)Bring water and stay hydrated.
