Engagement Photos- help!!

So our engagement photos came out pretty terrible (MY fault, I found a deal online and it was just a bad idea from the get-go!) We are retaking them this weekend with our actual photographer and hope we like them enough to use for our STD's!! (gosh-am i always behind?! lol)  Anyways.. under a little pressure and my mother and sister live far away and can't help me so I am here for YOUR help- Which of these dresses looks best?? The photographs will be taking at a park/barn outdoors with looks of natural light and greenery :) Any advice would be GREATLY appreciated... !!!!!!

    I'd stay away from #3.  It probably won't photograph as well (usually it's best to avoid prints).  #1 looks like it'd be fine straight from the front, but it might be low for different angles or shots from above.  Not a huge fan of #2.  I like any of the last three, though #4 is my favorite.

    Thanks- you are right about the print- i think i just liked the dress lol
    And I loved the pink but the top is a little too low maybe, want to keep is classy!

    I think 2 & 5 flatter your shape the most and those color photograph amazingly!

    5 was great! Also I stay away from the white because your gonna have so many new photos of you in white for your wedding pics. A nice pop of color will give your pics variety when displayed in your home in my opinion.

    I recommend bringing 2 dresses! I did multiple outfits and the outfit I thought I'd love was AWFUL. Maybe one with ruffles and a plain one, if its windy the ruffles may not look great, but they are super cute.

    I really like 5, but agree about having a wardrobe change if possible! Just to mix it up a little.
