Engagement Photos Outfit Input

Darby, on September 29, 2019 at 3:10 PM Posted in Parties and Events 1 12
So my photos are 10/14. For anyone who lives in Michigan you know that we should probably expect annoyingly bad weather and they’re on a beach area near woods on Lake Michigan at sunset.

I LOVE the idea of bright sunset and fall colored leaves with a lake in the distance etc. I wanted to wear a nice dress like you see in most photos. But my question is — what the HECK do I do for shoes? I’m thinking a more formal type of maxi from Lulus (deep fall colors), so I just don’t know what to do. It feels like chunky boots would look bad with the style of dress I’m going for. I’m between a few right now but I included a screen shot of one of the top contenders. The others don’t even have sleeves at all. Ideally it won’t rain but I need to plan for it being cloudy and rainy. I’m fine with rainy pics but I don’t want muddy feet or to be very cold.

Also wondering if you guys think dressing this type of dress down with a jean jacket would be appropriate? We have been looking for months and have no clue what I’m wearing or what he is wearing. Kind of frustrating lol.

    First of all that dress is BEAUTIFUL! I think you could definitely pull of some chunky boots with that dress. Maybe something like this:

    And I also believe that you could wear a light jean jacket over it. Just not all jean jackets would match but I'm pretty sure you'd be able to find something.

    I wore a very similar dress from Lulus for my engagement photos. They have the best fall maxi’s! I wore super strapy sandals because 1- I live in NC and it was still fairly warm during my photos and 2- I saw them paired with the dress I chose. But honestly, you couldn’t even see my shoes due to the length of the dress. So I wouldn’t put too much stress on yourself about picking the perfect shoe unless you’re doing a shoe shot.

    I almost ordered that dress but found one very very similar on amazon for 30 bucks, wore it today for our sunset engagement shoot at our venue and it photographed really well!

    I have an amazing pair of Steve Madden Chelsea booties that I got from DSW. They didn’t break the bank and I wear them all the time & I think they’d look great w this outfit!
    Id look on Zappos for some suede ankle boots in a cognac color!
