Engagement Photoshoot Planning Tips

For newly engaged couples:


A lot of planning will go into your engagement photography session. First you will need to select a location for the photoshoot. Some great location's around Edmonton to consider for your photo session include:

  • Kinsmen Park
  • Devon Botanical Gardens
  • Whyte Avenue
  • Mill Creek Ravine
  • University of Alberta North Campus


Once you have a desired location you will need to determine what you are going to wear. Many engagement photographers will allow you time to change your outfit once or twice during the photoshoot. Many couples consider having both casual, fun and formal photos taken to capture the nature of their relationship.


Its a good idea to have your hair and makeup done by a professional prior to the photoshoot. This allows you the opportunity to work with someone who you may use for your wedding.


Many couples will choose their engagement photographer to photograph their wedding too as this allows them to build a sense of comfort and a relationship with the photographer before the big day.
