Portrait Props... Love 'Em or Leave 'Em?

While searching through hundreds of wedding related photos on the internet, I have noticed a recurring theme... props. Some may not like using props, but I feel it is a great way to get comfortable in front of the camera. Let's face it, unless you are Kim Kardashian or a Victoria's Secret model, then you are most likely not your self during a bridal session. And no matter how much you love your honey, taking engagement pictures can be uncomfortable. This is where the props come into play. I would suggest using them at the beginning of the session so you can relax. Be yourself! The best pictures are candid shots. Whisper something funny in your fiance's ear, give him a kiss on the cheek... make him blush! The camera will love you!
Take a look at our inspiration board below. Maybe you will find a few ideas that will help you be yourself at your photo shoot!
