Dress Up

You dress in regular clothes everyday. When one says dress up, she simply doesn’t mean your good clothes or your church clothes, she means SLAY.

Step outside of the box and in a fun and unique way, express your personal style at maximum personification level 13 with my personal ALT (alternative) method: accessorize, layer, (add) texture.

Locale

Location will be everything. Be sure to CHECK THE WEATHER on your date and have a back up venue in case. Shooting at a location that has great indoor and outdoor aesthetics and decor would be ideal. On a budget? Try utilizing a church or a hotel lobby. Lots of places want the press and photography for their media outlets and won’t mind.

Personality

Your engagement session should absolutely capture the best of you as individuals and as a couple. Have fun, laugh, flirt… it should be natural.
