Why I love engagement sessions
On a very practical/logistical note, engagement photos can be useful for Save-the-Dates or your wedding website
More meaningfully, it’s a lovely way to get comfortable in front of the camera.
In most couples I work with, there’s one person who feels a little nervous about having their picture taken (in my partnership, that’s me!) and it’s true that on the day of your engagement session you might feel a little nervous. But my clients always tell me that about 10 minutes into their engagement, it stops being scary - we’ll have a fun, easygoing time, and you’ll get to see how amazing the pictures turn out. And the best part: because we’ve gone through it already, on your wedding day you won’t have that nervousness about being photographed.
But here’s the thing I love most about engagement sessions: you’ll get beautiful pictures of you and your partner, when you aren’t in your wedding outfits. It’s a celebration of your everyday life together, which is really powerful.
