Kelsey & Andy: Engagement Photo Ideas

Engagement Photo Ideas
Pretty quickly after we got engaged I started thinking about engagement photo ideas for two reasons: first because I wanted to take advantage of how beautiful fall is in Minnesota and secondly because I wanted to be able to include them in our save the date cards and get them out early. A lot of our guests will be coming from out of state and it will give them more time to make travel arrangements.

A few weeks before the session I brainstormed potential shoot locations with both my fiancé and photographer Hollywould Designs. We settled on three separate places: a very lovely local park that sits on the banks of the Minnesota River, a large wooden bridge on one of our favorite bike trails, and a very cool-looking, worn-down industrial warehouse that’s right down the street from our home. Each of these spots shows off the natural beauty of the area and was special to us as a couple.Kelsey & Andy: Engagement Photo Ideas #peartreegreetings #weddingideas

When they got back home and began looking at venues, they knew right away that a traditional wedding wasn’t for them. “We always had a laid back and intimate wedding in mind. Matt heard from a friend who had been to a destination wedding and was raving about all the fun they had, so we decided to give that some serious consideration. We visited Mexico in October 2012 and fell in love with the vibe, weather and people.”

His+Hers=Ours: Engagement photo ideas

Happy November! Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend and are enjoying the holiday tunes! His+Hers=Ours is back to share a few engagement photo ideas with you. Scott and I are less than a year out and earlier this month we met with our photographers from Mi Amore Imagery (one of the photographers also doubles as my awesome sister-in-law and one of my bridesmaids – she’s the best!). To get these engagement photo ideas, we walked around downtown and in a couple parks. We had a great time! Here is a sneak peek of a few. We have to keep some secret for our save the date cards and Christmas cards. 🙂Engagement photo ideas
