Engagement Pictures

Hey guys! I’m getting some pictures done but I have no idea what to wear. It will be outside in a small town. I’m pretty insecure with my body and I’m a little chunkier, and I want to wear something that’s slimming and I won’t regret when I get back. HELP

    I recommend wearing a long sleeve wrap dress.

    You could always wear spanx to make you feel more comfortable about looking slimmer

    You could also order a compression garment from Amazon. I had to wear one (& still am) after my surgery in October. Very slimming! Take your measurements & stick to the recommended size.

    I really like how to organize a wedding and a wedding photo shoot in Korea. They have a photo shoot in three outfits: a wedding dress, national costumes and in ordinary holiday clothes.

    I'm a little heavier on my top and thighs so I feel ya!

    What I wore was a maxi dress from amazon ! It was extremely flattering IMO and comfy too! Wrap/faux wrap dresses are also pretty flattering and give a nice flow to photos! If you're insecure about your arms showing, the one I linked had sleeves that hit above my elbows and I liked that a lot. Dresses with flutter sleeves that can flow around your arms are also flattering!

    I would also suggest going to Pinterest for outfit ideas. That's what I did and it helped a lot! That's where I got the outfit idea for our second engagement session!

    My photographer gave me a HUGE tip about outfits. Try them on at home and wear them for a little bit just walking around. If you feel stuffed in your outfit and uncomfortable, then don't wear it. You being uncomfortable and not relaxed in your outfit will translate to photos. Wear something that you feel confidant in and something that you aren't always worrying if your stomach is sucked in enough...or that you're skinny looking enough in. Her tip helped me a lot and I felt like myself during our first session. I wasn't worrying about sucking my stomach in or trying to make my arms look smaller.

    Good luck!! Smiley heart
