Engagement Photo Shoot How to!

My fiance was here from the States last week and we really wanted to make sure that we had an engagement photo shoot. Something that we could look back on for years to come, but we are both in University and money can be tight so we decided to do one ourselves. We grabbed a tripod and my beloved Nikon camera and started taking photos. On our first try we discovered we are not automatically graceful and photogenic. The first photo below was the one cute shot we got from that day. So on the second try, where you`ll notice a outfit change, we did some research. My biggest tip is to go on Pinterest and make a collage of poses you both agree on. The beautiful poses you find are not always naturally done, there was deliberate effort to look like that, but the key is to have fun with your fiance, get playful, somewhat match your outfits, and smile big! :)
