You’re Engaged—Cue the Happy Dance!
Now that you’ve said “yes,” you’re probably diving into wedding planning, but before you get too far, let’s talk about why an engagement session is a must-have. (Spoiler alert: It’s not just about pretty pictures!)
Why Should You Have an Engagement Session?
Sure, you’re already hiring a photographer for your wedding day, so why add an engagement session to the mix? Here’s why it’s 100% worth it:
1. You Get Comfortable in Front of the Camera
Not everyone is a natural model (and that’s okay!). Engagement sessions give you a low-pressure way to get used to the camera before your wedding day. You’ll learn how to pose, get comfy with your photographer, and discover what makes you look and feel amazing in photos.
How We Help: We make engagement sessions fun, relaxed, and totally stress-free. Think of it as a date with your partner—with us third-wheeling in the best way possible.
2. Build a Connection with Your Photographer
Your photographer will be with you on one of the most important days of your life, so it helps if you actually like them! An engagement session lets you bond, get familiar with their shooting style, and feel more relaxed when the big day arrives.
How We Help: We get to know you—what makes you laugh, how you naturally interact, and what little quirks make your love story unique. This way, we capture you in the most authentic way possible.
3. More Photos for Your Wedding & Beyond
Engagement photos aren’t just for Instagram (though, let’s be honest, they’ll look great there too). You can use them for:
- Save-the-dates
- Wedding invitations
- Guest books
- Decor at your reception
- Social media announcements
4. Capture This Unique Chapter of Your Story
Your engagement is a huge milestone in your love story. Why not document it? Years from now, you’ll love looking back at these photos and remembering the excitement leading up to your wedding day.
How We Help: We encourage you to pick a location that means something to you—maybe where you had your first date, your favorite weekend getaway spot, or just a place with stunning sunset views.
