engagement photo outfit -- help me choose!

I'm not crazy about either. Where are you taking the photos (location), what's your personality like, describe your features (hair color, eyes etc..). I think the photos should reflect the two of you. Just a thought.

I voted for #1, but I don't LOOOOOVE it. However, I would definitely wear a skirt no matter what outfit you choose, and also stay away from trendy items or patterns. If #1 fits your style and personality then go for it, if not and you don't LOOOOVE it, keep looking b/c you're going to have those pics for the rest of your life!

SSG - J and I are getting the photos done in Central Park (in NYC), in a formal garden section of it.

I was/am looking for something romantic for me to wear -- J will most likely wear his black suit. I want the photos to be fairly formal in tone -- I'm not really going for a casual look.

J is about 6'2", dk brown hair, green eyes. I'm 5'9", dk brn hair, hazel eyes. We're both pretty pale.

If anyone has any suggestions for alternative outfits -- I'm open to suggestions!

I voted for #3, but I like #1 too. I really like the dresses FP posted and would consider one of those options.

I think the skirt you chose it perfect, and here are a few more top options:

I like the BR skirt but how about a top to bring out your eyes and hair color. Maybe something plumb colored. Let me look around and see what i can find.
