Engagement Photoshoot Outfits — Colours by Sue, Perth

Engagement photos are kept for life. Choosing flattering colours for both partners — and the Perth location — is the difference between 'love it' and 'wish we'd worn something else'.

Coordinate, don't match

Both partners wearing the same colour reads costume. Choose harmonising shades from each person's palette.

By location

  • Beach (Cottesloe, Scarborough) — soft neutrals, light blues, blush
  • Bush (Hills, Karri forests) — earth tones, deep greens, rust
  • Urban (Northbridge, Fremantle) — bolder palettes, modern silhouettes
  • Vineyard (Swan Valley) — warm autumn tones year-round

Avoid

  • Bright neon (overwhelms cameras)
  • Stark white (blows out exposure)
  • Loud prints (date the photos)

Frequently asked questions

Should we both have colour analysis first?

Ideally yes — even a quick 30-min joint session pays off in confident wardrobe choices.

What about the photographer's preference?

Ask, but final call is yours — you're the one looking at the photos for 40 years.
