With Valentine's Day right around the corner, finding unique and meaningful ways to celebrate is a popular topic of discussion. One fun and heartfelt way to honor the occasion is by scheduling a photography session with a professional photographer. Here are a few photo shoot ideas to ensure your pictures are treasured for years to come. 

What Features Make for Great Valentine's Day Photos?

1. Monochrome Colors

While Valentine's Day is synonymous with hearts, cupids, and kisses, you don't necessarily have to lean into traditional decorations for your photo shoot. Instead, consider celebrating the holiday by setting up a shoot with monochrome colors. Pick flowers, everyday objects, and balloons in matching white, pink, or red tones. Dress in matching colors to finish off a collection of festive photos that will be timeless and eye-catching.

2. Secret Proposal

Couple portraits are a great way to celebrate an engagement or wedding. If you're planning to propose, consider making it a secret and special Valentine's Day affair. Plan your photography session under the guise of taking holiday photos and use the opportunity to get down on one knee and propose with a professional photographer waiting to capture the joy and immediate reaction.

3. Girl Squad

When you're single, Valentine's Day may not be your favorite occasion to celebrate. The good news is that you can turn the day into an opportunity to celebrate with your girlfriends. Schedule a photo shoot honoring your squad. Pick a favorite park or outdoor setting, plan to wear complementary outfits, and have fun posing together. In the years to come, you'll love looking back on your photo albums.
