Engagement Photos in Korea

I looked at a few English-speaking professional photographers in South Korea, but since we were throwing so much money at wedding vendors in France, including a wedding photographer, I didn’t want to spend so much money on engagement photos.

Instead, we decided to do a simple photoshoot at Photomatic in Sinsa-dong, Seoul where they set up a DSLR camera on a tripod and you take your own photos with a wired camera remote. The backdrop was clean and simple, and there were two stools for us to sit on. The room attendant checked in on us periodically to make sure everything was going okay. We chose the B&W photo package, and they provided us with light retouching to make sure that our photos came out picture-perfect. You can book an appointment directly on Naver Booking, and the staff spoke enough English for us to get by.

I also looked into The Gaeul Studio which is an all-inclusive photo studio where they provide makeup, hair, dresses, tuxedo, backdrop(s), and a photographer, but the prices were between 2,000,000 and 3,000,000 won. It was a bit steep for my engagement photo budget, but the sample photos are absolutely beautiful.

We may still decide to do a proper engagement shoot this summer, but we’re still deciding the details. I did shortlist a couple below which you’ll be able to check out as well.
