An engagement Session is one of my favourite things to shoot. You have people in love and love makes you smile. Photographers love smiles because they make our job easier. Taking photos is soooo awkward for soooo many people but something about doing it with the one your in love with and about to marry makes it more fun. I can’t tell you how many clients I have that are afraid of the camera. I’ve heard it all. Then again everyone loves the outcome and can’t believe they were so nervous to get their photos done. I love to do engagement sessions because they are fun but also as a way to get to know the bride and groom and for them to know me. Come wedding day, you guys spend it together. It’s their day but the photographer is always around. Always a few steps away, asking you to smile, and fixing your hair/dress for you constantly. They become one of your closest companions that day. In my opinion you should feel comfortable with each other so this session is perfect!
Congrats to Stephanie and Jim on their upcoming wedding!
