Oh it’s the most wonderful time of the year.. the time for Engagements!!!!! And along with engagements, come engagement photos, so while we’re on the subject, I wanted to share 3 ways that you can use your engagement photos.

Yes, 3 ways OTHER than posting on instagram/on your wedding website because in 20 years when your kids ask to see what you looked like when you got engaged, are you really going to scroll back on instagram? Yeah, didn’t think so.

  1. Comission a beautiful art gallery portrait – Every day you get to wake up and see your stunning portraits on the wall. From personal experience, I can tell you how amazing it is to have Pyk and I’s portrait on our wall so we can see it every day.
    WEDDING DECO BONUS TIP: Use it as part of your wedding decorations like my client did!

All the pictures coming your way thanks to @susieandwill! This gorgeous fireplace was the work of @layersoflovely and @redrockcountryclubweddings. It was romantic and dreamy and made the chill of fall feel cozy.

2. Make a beautiful fine art album – From your engagement photo session you’re going to have a variety of portraits you can’t live without and you’ll probably make wall portraits of MAX 5 of them. What better opportunity to comission a fine art album to beautifully display your portraits that will stand the test of time.
BONUS WEDDING DECO TIP: Make sure the design of your album leaves lots of white space around your photos so you can then use it as a wedding guest book! Have your loved ones leave you special messages surrounded by loving portraits.

3. Use it for a printed save the date! Think: your photo on the front and the deets on the back. Easy! We used minted as it was an easy choice.

Ex: We are coming to Paris this spring at the end of March and it's our first time! We don't often travel so this is really big for us. I've been a Francophile since I was in my teens and have always dreamed of coming. I'd love this for my family and especially to be able to relive this special trip everyday on my walls with an art piece! My kids are 2, 5 and 9. Crossing my fingers and toes to be chosen!!
