Capturing those genuine moments on a couple's shoot is all about being comfortable and looking your best! As your photographers, here's our advice on what to wear for stunning, natural photos in a beautiful outdoor setting:
โ๐ธ Couple Shoot Style Guide: Harmony, Not Matching
โForget the identical outfits! The secret to a visually pleasing photograph is harmony. Think complementary colours and styles rather than being twins.
๐จ โThe Colour Palette
โOpt for earthy and muted tones that beautifully blend with a rural environment (beaches, woodlands, meadows). Think sage green, dusty blue, cream, terracotta, mustard yellow, burnt orange, or soft grey.
โThese colours create a soft, warm look that focuses attention on you and not your clothes.
๐๐ โStyle & Fit
โAim for casual-elegant. This means clothes that feel comfortable and relaxed but still have a touch of sophistication.
โFor her: A flowing maxi or midi dress is always a winner. It adds beautiful movement to the photos. Natural fabrics like cotton or linen look fantastic.
โFor him: Chinos paired with a well-fitting knit sweater or a linen/cotton shirt.ย
โAvoid: Large, distracting logos, overly busy patterns, or anything neon/fluorescent. They take the focus away from your connection.ย
๐๐ขโ Footwear is Key
โSince we'll be walking around to find the best light and locations, comfort is non-negotiable.
โChoose sturdy, stylish options that can handle sand, grass, or light trails: think classic leather boots, clean low-profile trainers, or elegant flats/sandals with good support.
๐โ Ready to plan your outfits? The goal is to look like yourselves on your best day. When you feel great, you look great!
