Whether you're celebrating a milestone or just want to capture your love exactly as it is right now, a couples session is such a meaningful way to freeze time together. But if you're feeling a little unsure of what to expect - or how to make the most of your shoot - these simple tips will help you show up relaxed, connected, and ready for some magic.
1.Wear What Makes You Feel Amazing
This is your moment together, so dress in a way that feels like you. Choose outfits that you feel confident and comfortable in - nothing too tight, stiff, or overly trendy unless it genuinely reflects your style. Soft, neutral tones photograph beautifully outdoors and allow your connection to shine.
2.Think of it As A date
Your session isn't just about the photos - it's about the experience. Treat it like a special date. Bring your favorite playlist, plan a picnic, or grab coffee beforehand. The more relaxed and connected you feel with each other, the more natural the photos will be.
3.Trust the Process
You don't need to worry about posing or knowing what to do with your hands. I'll gently guide you throughout the session to create space for real moments - like the way you laugh together, the quiet in-between glances, and everything that makes your love unique. Let go and lean into just being with each other.
4.Bring a personal touch
Want to include your dog, your vintage truck, or a location that holds meaning for the two of you? Yes, please. Adding personal elements helps tell your story in a more intimate and meaningful way. Your session should feel like a reflection of your relationship - not anyone else's.
5.Have fun with it
It doesn't need to be perfect. In fact, the most beautiful moments usually happen when things aren't perfect - when you're laughing uncontrollably, or pulling each other into a goofy spin. Be open to movement, silliness, quiet moments, and everything in between. That's where the real magic is.
Your couples session is more than just a photoshoot - it's a chance to slow down, be present with each other, and capture the kind of love you'll want to look back on for years to come. Let's make it unforgettable.
