Autumn Engagement Photos in Scrabo Country Park
Autumn Engagement Photos in Scrabo Country Park with Ashley, Jake and the couple’s dog, Max. The couple booked for a session near Newtownards.
Scrabo Country Park Engagement Photography
Ashley, Jake and the couple’s dog, Max, came along for their Scrabo Country Park engagement photos. Am not sure I knew they were going to bring their dog, but I’m super glad they did. Ashley is Scottish, and Jake is from Belfast, where they both live, and we all decided that the Scrabo Country Park in Northern Ireland would be nice. It was quite cold, so everyone wrapped themselves in their winter clothes as it was autumn and the fall. The outfit you both wear needs to be suited to the time of the year you want photos in. This time of the year in a forest environment is great, as you get the light brown and golden leaves on the ground, and you can see the branches on the trees. A kind of burn orange colour which makes the photos pop.
We started with a couple of active type photos, as the engagement photographer usually does, as this helps start the engagement session before heading into the woodlands. We took a couple of pictures before breaking things up a bit with a couple of variations, but didn't quite make it up to Scrabo Tower, which I believe you can see views of Strangford Lough and North Down, but maybe next time. There were wooden steps and then some large rocks and stones. Going by the number of people in the park, it looked like a popular walking spot and good for dog walkers too, which is right next to Scrabo Golf Club. It’s usually great to have some ideas beforehand, and I do a bit of research online.
Embrace Your Autumn Engagement Photos
Autumn is such a beautiful time of the year for an engagement session, isn't it? But it’s a good idea to wear something contrasting to the browns and yellows of the leaves; otherwise, you will blend in too much with the autumn environment. You want to stand out! We finished off by going over their schedule as they are getting married in the Orange Tree House, which is in two weeks, as I’ve been booked as their Wedding Photographer in Newtownards. Hope you enjoy your engagement photos, Ashley and Jake. All the best.
