First of all, huge congrats on your engagement! 🎉 Now, let’s talk about what to wear for your engagement session in Kitchener-Waterloo. The most important thing to remember is that you want to feel like you. I want you to look back at your photos and think, "Yep, that’s totally us!" So let’s get into some fun and easy tips to make sure you look and feel amazing:

1. Comfort is Key

The last thing you want is to feel awkward or restricted during your session, so choose outfits that allow you to move, laugh, and truly be yourselves. Try everything on before the shoot to make sure everything fits just right—no worrying about straps slipping off your shoulders or jeans that make sitting uncomfortable. When you’re comfortable, you can focus on having fun and enjoying the moment!

2. Be Prepared for the Conditions

Comfort also means being ready for the landscape and weather! If we’re going for an outdoor session with uneven ground, flats or running shoes are more advisable. And if it’s chilly, layer up with a favourite cozy sweater or jacket!

3. Stick to Neutrals

When it comes to colors, neutrals are always a great choice! Classic shades like blacks, whites, and earthy tones that blend with Kitchener-Waterloo’s natural scenery will keep the focus on you rather than your outfits. For example, soft pastels look gorgeous in the spring, while rich browns and deep oranges are stunning in the fall. Plus, neutrals tend to photograph really well and look stunning when printed and displayed in your home—think timeless and versatile!

4. Avoid Bold Patterns & Logos

Bold patterns and logos can easily become distractions in your photos. They tend to pull attention away from you and, depending on the location, can clash with the natural backdrop. Plus, they have a tendency to date your photos faster than you’d like! For a more timeless look, neutrals are always a safer bet.
