Rocky Mountain Bride Feature: Spring Engagement Session in Calgary

Winter engagement season is coming to an end, and it’s time to start booking your spring engagement session in Calgary. Planning your session now will give you ample time to choose the perfect location, curate outfits that fit your style and personality, and even consider incorporating unique elements or activities.

Nicole and Rhys opted to include a vintage Jaguar in their session, and they were styled impeccably for the session. I always like to give couples a hand with outfit styling if they’re feeling stuck. You don’t necessarily need to find a new outfit, either. You can shop your closet and put something together — they key is to be comfortable and feel confident in your choice. Here are a few tips to consider:

• Stick to solid colours or subtle patterns. Loud patterns can date the photo and distract from the focus, which is you!
• Avoid big logos
• Choose colours carefully. Neutrals or jewel tones photograph beautifully, but bright colours (especially bright greens, reds, pinks, oranges) can create a colour cast on your skin.
• Dress for the location. If you’re doing a session in the mountains, for example, consider something more casual and easy to move around in.
• Keep accessories simple. Opt for a simple necklace and earrings over big statement pieces. Your ring is the focal piece here.
• Wear comfortable shoes you can easily walk in.
