During the Christmas season there are tons of places decorated that you can use for your engagement photos. Scout out a few places in town with lights or trees and see if you can use their grounds for your photos.

Pick Your Palette

Christmas engagement photos can be sophisticated and subdued with the right color palette. We love this white, brown, and gold color inspiration.

Use Christmas Props

Using fun and colorful props in your Christmas engagement photos can take them to the next level. Your photographer can help you arrange them for the most visual impact in your photos.

Celebrate Nature

While the cold weather might make you think twice about photos outside, it’s the perfect time to celebrate nature in your photos. Help out the barren landscape by bringing your own colorful Christmas decorations.

Wrap Up In Lights
