Your engagement photos are one of the first big moments that makes it all feel real. It’s the beginning of your wedding story—and your photos should feel like an elevated reflection of who you are together. To start, when choosing what to wear, keep it simple, refined, and true to your style. Neutral tones, soft fabrics, and classic silhouettes photograph beautifully. A flowing dress or a tailored jacket adds an elegant touch that instantly elevates the look. On the other hand, bold patterns or heavy logos tend to distract from the romantic, timeless vibe you’re going for—so it’s best to avoid them.
When love fills the air, nothing can dampen the spirits of a couple ready to embark on their journey of forever. Such was the case on a remarkable August day in 2022 when John and Lauren tied the knot amidst the breathtaking landscapes of Cheekwood in Nashville, Tennessee. I had the privilege of capturing their extraordinary love story, and what unfolded was pure magic.
