Props

I found this amazingly girly and totally unnecessary umbrella and spent some time trying to figure out a plausible excuse for its purchase (because I secretly adore the absolutely extravagant ruffles):

And then it hit me. Props. That’s right…as in props to use in your wedding photos. Sans the Scarlett-O’Hara-ness that this umbrella boasts, I really think the whole idea can be a barrel o’ fun. Here are some fun (and NOT cheesy…because cheese can sometimes accompany props) ideas for engagement and wedding shoots using props.
