So this Wedding Wednesday I have a SUPER COOL request – help me plan my engagement session. Eeeeee! Yup, it’s that time – I was contacted by our photographer, Miranda Laine Photography, and she asked me for ideas for locations or a theme for The Boy and my engagement session. I Am So Excited!

But, I’m a little stressed right now (new job and all) and I could use some help with ideas. Specifically, we have NO desire to do a stylized or costume engagement session. I just want photos of us looking natural and like the photographer happened to stumble upon us out doing something together. I would also like us to wear normal clothes (but look a little nicer than normal). Here are a couple of photos that I found around the Internet that I really like:

So what do y’all think? Should we stick to an outdoor location or try and do something around San Antonio? The Boy loves fishing and hunting and we both really love baseball so maybe something along those lines? Has anyone seen a cool engagement session somewhere that you'd like to link to because you think I'd love it?
And what should I wear? Feel free to link me to outfit ideas (Here's a Pinterest board with some awesome outfits that I've been pinning – just because. Would any of them work?) so I can add them to my Pinterest Engagement Sessiony Board. Thanks!

I’ve seen a couple cool ones where the couple is just sitting in a coffee shop or a bar, sipping, smiling, and looking all cute. Looks totally natural and laid back.

I’ve seen some cute baseball ones where the couple each wears their favorite teams’ hats or jerseys! Fishing could be really sweet, too.

Another vote for the fishing idea (rowboat! yes!)

how do you feel about blue bonnets and indian paint brush? willing to wait until April..? cuz those would be some AMAZING nature/natural photos.

Oooh, Allie H – I hadn’t even considered that!!!
So, looks like I’m going to request an e-sess with us in the wildflowers (do a bit o’ baseball team stuff there) and then do a fishing something. Excellent. This should be cool.
Now, what to wear…
Favorcraver says
Hip waders, duh.

Those are lovely shots!! It’s nice when couples just keep it simple.
