I find that many of the couples that I meet with for their wedding photography are not particularly excited about having an engagement photo session. Typically, one person is really nervous about having their photo taken. The idea of having a session devoted to creating images of just the two of them can sometimes cause anxiety and trepidation. And yet, this is exactly why every couple should consider having an engagement session. More often than not, the couple has never had any good photos taken of just the two of them (your average snapshots don’t count). Everyone needs practice in front of the camera. By taking an hour session some time before the wedding day, you will feel much more comfortable in front of the camera. It’s a great way to get the nerves out before your big day. Besides the two of you getting valuable camera practice, you’ll get to know your photographer better. You’ll learn about how your photographer shoots and your photographer will learn more about your personalities, what you like, what you don’t like, and so on. This gives the photographer valuable insight into your personalities and style and gives you plenty of time to tell them more about your plans and preferences for the wedding day. The more comfortable you are with each other, the better the photos will be in the end. Location, Location, Location! Now that you are getting excited about the engagement session here are some things to think about before the shoot. Put some thought into the location. I ask my couples to think of a location or activity that is meaningful to them. This may include where you had your first date, the spot where he proposed to you, playing golf, or sipping on wine at a local vineyard. Don’t have any ideas? Talk to your photographer about the style you are looking for; do you want an urban setting or a natural landscape? What to wear? I recommend staying away from loud prints such as stripes or bold floral patterns. In color images, the prints will distract from your emotion and interaction. Dress up a bit more than your casual weekend wear and think about layering some pieces so you have a few different looks throughout the shoot. What to do with the images afterwards? Buy some prints and frame them to give to your parents as gifts; they’ll be thrilled! Update your home and office with new images of the two of you. For the wedding day, think about having your photographer create a guest signature book or the classic large matted image for your guests to sign. Last but not least, be yourself and have fun!
