Choosing the perfect location for your engagement shoot can feel like a daunting task, but it doesn't have to be. We believe that every love story is unique and should be captured in a way that reflects your individual style and story, this is what makes Ezzo Studios special. Here are some tips to help you select the best backdrop for your engagement photos.
Consider Your Shared Interests
The first step in choosing the perfect engagement shoot location is to consider your shared interests as a couple. Do you love hiking in the beautiful Michigan outdoors? Perhaps a forest or state park could serve as the ideal setting. Are you more of city-dwellers who love the hustle and bustle of Detroit? A downtown setting with urban architecture might be perfect.
Think About the Aesthetics
When considering a location, think about the aesthetic you want for your photos. For a more romantic and timeless look, you might consider a location with lush greenery or a beautiful garden. For a more modern and edgy look, an industrial setting or cityscape could be ideal. Remember, the location should complement, not distract from, the love between you two.
Plan for the Michigan Weather
Michigan’s weather can be unpredictable. When planning your engagement shoot, consider the season and how it might impact your chosen location. Remember, there's beauty in every season - the blooming flowers of spring, the vibrant greenery of summer, the fiery colors of fall, and the snowy landscapes of winter can all make for stunning backdrops.
Accessibility and Convenience
While a remote waterfall might make for stunning photos, it's also important to consider accessibility and convenience. If you or your partner are uncomfortable or stressed about reaching the location, it can show in your photos. Consider locations that are easy to reach and where you can feel relaxed and at ease.
