In the age of convenience, it seems like engagement photos are getting lost to the wayside. Many couples that we work with don’t see the use of an engagement session before their wedding, especially when they have so many wedding planning tasks on their docket.
But the couples that do end up shooting a session with us are always blown away. The experience of the shoot itself is often intimate, romantic and–most importantly–free of the stress and chaos of the wedding day, and the joy of that experience always shows in the resulting photos. Plus, once the session is done, you’d be surprised how many uses there are for engagement photos during the wedding planning process and beyond! Here are just a few: –
