Non-Professional Engagment Photos, Which Dress?

FutureMrsSlaby, on November 21, 2017 at 10:33 AM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 33

We are having a friend take a few photos of us for our Christmas card this year, and they will sort of be our engagement photos. We will be taking them sometime next week, in woodsy park area in Pennsylvania so the trees will either be leafless or have brownish leaves on them. So my question is which dress do I wear for the photos. I really like both dresses equally, but my concern about the blue one is not knowing what color cardigan to wear with it? Also will it look dumb to not wear a cardigan because its so cold out!? I'll already be wearing black stockings and black boots, would a black cardigan be too much black? I just think the blue color is so pretty and would really pop among the scenery. I'm leaning towards the red dress because it has sleeves and would be more "festive" Let me know what you think please!!

    My vote is definitely the red one! I feel like that would look best in a woodsy setting and I also like the sleeves. If these are going to be your Christmas cards, I'd go for the red dress Smiley smile

    I love the right and picked something similar for my epics! I had mine done last week in PA too. I think both will look beautiful this time of year!

    Red. It's pretty, it's warmer, and it looks more Fall.

    I say take both! Do pics in both dresses that way you can choose which one looks best. I've seen a trend where couples are in multiple outfits and have used a variety to make a collage for their announcement.

    Ask if you can do both! I feel like the same outfit in many pictures can get boring. Both are really nice dresses!
