Pay attention to the background
With a photo on social media, you want to say more than a thousand words. So the background of your photo is important. Go for the classic ‘hand in front of the lens’, but make the most of the space behind your hand. Leave your fiancé blurred in the background, choose a beautiful print on fabric, put your hand in seawater or use your bridal shower invitations as a background... In short, make a beautiful whole where you show as much ‘story’ as possible.

100% Engaged
Get extra likes by giving your ring foil an extra romantic wear. Place your hand in your future's hand, use white lace to complement the close-up of your engagement ring or recreate the beautiful moment of the proposal and let your fiancé slide the ring around your finger. Rather not waste time and share your ring photo quickly? With a glass of champagne in hand, your followers will immediately know there is something to celebrate. Cheers!
No filter
Filters are often tempting, but consider the effect the filter will have on your engagement ring. With a filter, the little stone in your ring can look completely different, for example!

Missing link
Of course, your engagement ring doesn't always have to be the centerpiece of your photo. An element of surprise in your photo is just as fun. Take an ordinary photo of you as a couple and let your followers guess what is ‘so different about this photo’. Original alternative: incorporate a small note somewhere in your photo with ‘I do’ or ‘future Mr & Mrs’. A small detail with big impact!
Don't forget your manicure!
A beautiful engagement-ring-fie requires well-groomed nails, of course. That way, you can put your engagement ring even more in the picture. Ready for all those likes? Let's take a ringfie!
