Many couples spent big games talking and learning more about each other. Perhaps you and your fiancé had your first date at the ballpark, or better yet, got engaged there -- why not include this special memory into your portrait session? Head to your favorite team's stadium, whether it be in your neighborhood or where the pros play, these spots are the perfect location for a baseball lovers engagement. Pro tip: if your heart’s set on a trip to a pro stadium, call ahead to coordinate a time to shoot and clear all photography permits and fees.
Including a few creative props into your engagement photos can be just the ticket to a unique and more personalized session. Grab a few baseballs and write your wedding date or customize your jerseys to make one sweet save the date photo! We also love when a team rivalry is captured. Wearing your favorite jersey (matching or not) shows your shared love of the sport and is a peek into your personal interests. With props, there are so many ways you can bring your session to life -- and they are the perfect keepsake for after your session.
If you’re going to a ballpark, take a few photos in the stands. In a sea of empty seats, there’s just the two of you. Grab popcorn or concessions to make it the full experience or bring along some balloons as a fun, festive extra. Write your initials or wedding date in the dirt at home plate.
Are you or your fiancé a bit camera shy? Go local and toss around a baseball at a field nearby. A casual game with your future partner can be a simple way to get comfortable with your engagement photographer. This activity can help to pull out a more natural and candid vibe for your photos. We absolutely love this idea for any type of sports fans.
Baseball themed engagement photos are fun, playful, and bring a bit of locale to your session. For added beauty to your session, stay for golden hour and have the sunset on your game.
