3. The Urban Hug

Outdoor photoshoot poses don’t necessarily need to be taken in the wild nature. If you’re more of the urban kind, then pose in your favorite city corner! A good idea to do so is to hug one another, as the photographer focuses on you and creates depth of field by leaving the urban scenery slightly blurred, in the background.

4. The Floral Smooch

Flowers make everything beautiful, so why not use this natural beauty in your outdoor photoshoot? Add a touch of creative romance by standing in front of a flower wall background. Alternatively, place many different flower vases together and pose in the middle. Pose as you kiss each other or as you’re about to!

5. Cuties At Golden Hour

Outdoor photography means one thing: natural lighting! Indeed, you should take advantage of the beautiful natural lighting out there. Choose to shoot at golden hour to naturally enhance your eyes, give that extra skin glow, and have you and your lover sunkissed.

6. The Warm Hug Outdoor Pose

Tropical, sunny, hot vibes are cool for a couple’s outdoor shooting, but what about cozy and cold? Those can indeed give that extra intimate and romantic touch to any couple's photo. So for this outcome choose an aesthetic forest, a park, or even a cozy backyard to sit in. Then cover yourselves with a cute warm blanket to give that extra cozy vibe.

7. Staring At The City Pose

What if your outdoor couple photoshoot aims to include a scenic outdoor setting too? Maybe you’d love to also focus on a stunning city’s skyline or a tropical beach. If that’s the case you and your lover can sit side by side, hugging one another. Then, simply stare at your preferred view as your photographer proceeds to capture both the scenery and you two observing it in awe.

8. Holding Hands And Holding Coffee

If you’re not too much of the romantic type but aim for that “Sex and The City” spontaneous kind of outcome, then hear me out. Simply go on a coffee date with your lover and buy two takeaway coffees (or your favorite go-to drink, of course). Then, simply walk hand in hand as you old and sip from it. Get some spontaneous, everyday shots of such a pure moment of joy.

This will capture intimacy and love of couple pictures in a simple, yet effective way.
