Guest Post {10 Unique Location Ideas for an Engagement Shoot}

A gorgeous forest, a flowy summer dress and two googly-eyed lovers make for the most romantic setting for an engagement shoot. But have we seen one too many a forest shoot? As we have seen in weddings, there is a rising trend for romance with an added twist of quirkiness and the same goes for engagement shoots. So we did some thinking and came up with a list of 10 Unique Location Ideas for an Engagement Shoot for you to get creative with. One of these could be perfect for you.
  
1. Coffee Shop  
There is nothing like the sweet aroma of fresh coffee to get you feeling cosy. An ideal spot if you are both coffee lovers.

2. Airport
An ode to the romance of Top Gun. An airport might seem like a strange location but with it's long and wide windows, rustic airplane hangers and travel-appeal it might just surprise you.

3. Library
If your love is the stuff of romance novels then this one is definitely for you.

4. In the Kitchen
There is nothing cuter than a kitchen engagement shoot. Cook some pancakes for breakfast or get tucked into some home made pasta and see how stunning your shoot will turn out.

5. Camping

The Morning Trade

We recently went to Johannesburg and with our local mate, Nosipho, we got a tour around some of the best parts and were surprised to see the city in such a gorgeous light. Maboneng and Braamfontein both host full-blown markets (Arts on Main & Neighbourgoods respectively), creative coffee shops, cultured street decor and fun-filled people. I loved the 'vibe' that was there considering that it was JHB after all (sorry Jozie followers). On our way back home in the car I was saying how much I wish Durban would uplift our city as we have such potential for similar initiatives. The following week I was back at work and spotted a flurry of Facebook posts talking about the Rivertown Precinct and this wonderful market, The Morning Trade. WOW! Durban, you are making me so proud! I am so looking forward to, not just the Rivertown Precinct and what it will offer but all the new things to come from the amazing guys behind the work, Propertuity. I know that they won't stop here but will continue to find ways to make Durban grow and flourish! So on Sunday, 3rd August, I would suggest Durban go and play squashed sardines, get out of your comfort zone and try out the lovely-looking, The Morning Trade Market.
