Couples have their engagement portrait shoot first, several weeks before their wedding start. On this e-session, the couple comes dressed up depending on the concept or theme they want to be captured. Forget about artificial backdrops and explore unique environments and romantic locations and have it as your backdrop.
Couples are ready to have their intimate moments captured on-location by their photographer. Most couples tend to pick places like the beach or at the park, to name a few. If you are living within the countryside area, old motels, wide open fields, and dilapidated barns can give you unique photographs. If you live in a city, a vintage signage, graffiti, and brick walls can make excellent background.
Images captured from the engagement photo session are usually presented by the couple to their guest at the reception through an audio visual presentation or photo slideshow projected on a big monitor. In here, the photographer will show their love story through his images using Animoto to create that stunning slideshows in minutes.
Here’s some of a bit edgy, unique, and traditional ideas for your engagement portrait shoot on-location. Take it as an inspiration to come up with a decision for a memorable location that will be captured in photograph and cherish for a lifetime.

Finding Mr. right or Ms. right can be so hard for the others who are
already over the marrying stage, but once they find him/her and magical
feelings fill their hearts, there’s no other next step but to settle down
and plan for “the wedding”. You have given wedding planners the idea of where and how they can make their wedding portfolio a more pleasant to eyes. Great thing you become generous to share some of your brilliant ideas. Maybe for more memorable wedding, they can even scan themselves and have it 3D printed for their wedding souvenir
Nice post! We’re #23 by the way
This is a great series of photos!

At the junkyard you first sang to her? Seriously?
I will tell you
right now that there are people all over the world that are able to achieve
exactly what it is that they want to be doing. Thank you very much my friend.
These are great locations. Need to try these on my next shoot!
Nice and very interesting!
Some nice ideas here. I hope my future bride and groom have a cute story that they want to re-live in some way through an engagement shoot.
Wow, I never thought there’s so much ways to find the best location. Great help. Thanks!
hey! thanks for posting my photo
