We've already shared some of our best tips for choosing what to wear to your engagement session, but specific options change from season to season when you're having your photos done in a location with all four seasons!
When it comes to your winter engagement photos in Boise, there's no need to sacrifice style for warmth! We compiled our best winter engagement session tips and did a little research for you to include some links to winter engagement session outfits we love!
No matter the season, wearing multiple layers gives depth to your outfits. Winter engagement sessions are perfect for taking advantage of multiple layers! For men, that means you could wear a stylish sweater or vest under a jacket or suit coat. Ladies, this is the perfect time to grab a blazer or stylish coat to wear for some photos, then take it off for a few to add variety to your look!
We always recommend bringing a coat to your winter session, even if you aren't planning to wear it for photos. When moving between locations or photo spots, you'll have a chance to slip it on and warm up! We also love when couples purchase or wear a statement coat for their winter engagement photos! Choosing something stylish that you'd wear again on a date night!
Avoid bulky winter accessories that are too bulky. Instead of knit scarves or chunky boots, try a neutral cashmere scarf or tailored boots. In general, look for well-fitting accessories that complement your features instead of change their shape.
Now that we've shared some tips for what to wear for your winter engagement photos, check out some inspiration and links to outfits/pieces we love.
Look for dresses with sleeves like one of these! If it's really cold, choosing a dress without a slit means you could still wear warm leggings underneath. When choosing a dark neutral like black, have your parter wear something lighter in color.
Sweaters can be a warmer option, and look best paired with tailored accessories.
A statement coat is perfect for warmer looks:
Try pairing dark fitted jeans or dress pants with dress shoes. Layering button down shirts, sweaters, stylish winter coats, and/or scarves makes a great winter look.
I’m Becky, a wedding and engagement photographer. After living in Chicago for the most of my life, I made a cross country move to Boise, where I live with my husband and son. I photograph weddings and engagement sessions in both locations, or wherever my couples want to go!
As a photographer, there’s nothing like the moment you snap the shutter and know you’ve just created an image that will move people. The work I do as an artist, the photographs I create to document stories and milestones for couples is so personal and rewarding. If you’re looking for a photographer in Chicago, Boise or beyond, I’d love to connect! Get to know a little more about me or reach out via my website to chat about engagement photos with me.
Wedding photography is my heartbeat. For me, it holds the perfect tension between creativity and authenticity, observation and connection. In front of my camera clients transform to friends, and behind it you'll usually find me tearing up, cheering you on, or holding my breath because of the raw goodness of the moment at hand.
