This is so clean and pops in every photo! No matter what the location it's very cohesive! Navy blue and burnt oranges are great together!

Rich, deep colors like burnt orange

Full white or black outfits match really well! We also love neutral tones and find they blend seamlessly with white and black!

MATCHING WHITE, TAN & BEIGE

Always a favorite of mine! Even though I recommend fancy outfits, this is a great casual outfit! 

white shirts and matching denim

We love traditional attire! You can mix and match these stunning outfits in any location and they are show stoppers!

Mix of cultural attire with flare

* Always bring 2 outfits to your engagement session and also bring extra options! We can help mix & match when you arrive!
* Full White and Black outfits are great!
* Matching denim and white t shirts
* Deep and rich colors like Navy, Burnt Orange, Burgandy, Forest Green, Black,
* Get your ring cleaned before the session! 
* Bring props if you want! A blanket, cute sunglasses, a bottle to pop! 



What to do

* Be Cohesive! If you're wearing a dress, don't let your partner wear Jeans and a T shirt!
* No Poka Dots
* No Sneakers (unless matching)
* No Sandals
* Don't wear patterns that clash
* Don't wear big logos or graphic T shirts
* Stay away from grey shirts or grey pants! It's dull in photos!



What not to do

Aja and her team were so essential to the success for our big wedding day! We found Aja originally on Instagram and loved her style of photography. Immediately after finding her website, we reached out to her to see if we could hire her for our wedding and she responded quickly. Her pricing is affordable and she even included a complimentary engagement photoshoot.  Throughout our time with Aja, she was punctual, reliable, and gave great advice for posing and backdrops. Our wedding pictures turned out amazing and we couldn't be happier to have her part of our big day. She captured the important moments that we will remember forever. Thank you again Aja and team!
