So, you’re engaged—congrats! Now you’re deep in wedding planning, making decisions about venues, colors, flowers, and about a million other things. But let me tell you about one thing that should ease your mind: engagement photos are included if you book wedding photography package with me. Trust me, doing an engagement session before your wedding is the best- here’s why:

A Fun Date Night (With Your Photog Third Wheel)

Think of your engagement session as a fun, relaxed date night—just with me, your friendly third wheel, tagging along with a camera. I promise, it’s way less awkward than it sounds! Whether we’re strolling through a golden field at sunset, grabbing coffee at your favorite local shop, or adventuring to a place that’s special to you, engagement photos are all about capturing the two of you in your element.

There’s no wedding day stress, no timeline to stick to, and no pressure. It’s just you and your partner being yourselves, laughing, kissing, and soaking up this exciting season of your life. Plus, I’ll bring all the fun prompts and pose ideas to keep things lighthearted and natural. By the end of the session, you’ll probably forget I’m even there (except when I remind you to keep snuggling because it looks adorable).

Get Comfortable in Front of the Camera

Let’s be real—most couples haven’t spent a ton of time in front of a professional camera before their wedding day. And if the idea of posing sounds intimidating, you’re not alone! That’s why engagement sessions are so valuable. They give you the chance to get comfortable with how I work, how I guide you, and how I help you interact naturally so you don’t feel stiff or awkward.

During your engagement session, I’ll show you how I direct poses and prompt you to interact in a way that feels authentic. You’ll learn that it’s not about stiff, awkward smiles but about movement, connection, and having fun. That way, when your wedding day comes, you won’t be worried about how to pose or what to do with your hands—you’ll already be pros!

Build a Connection with Your Photographer (That’s Me!)

Your wedding photographer is going to be with you all day long on one of the biggest days of your life. From getting ready to your first look, ceremony, reception, and everything in between, we’ll be spending a LOT of time together. Wouldn’t it be awesome to already feel like we’re friends by the time your wedding day rolls around?

Engagement sessions are the perfect way for us to get to know each other in a low-pressure setting. You’ll get a feel for my personality, the way I work, and how I communicate, and I’ll get to learn more about you as a couple—what makes you laugh, what feels natural for you, and what little things make your relationship unique. By the time your wedding day arrives, I won’t feel like just another vendor—I’ll feel like a friend who’s there to cheer you on and capture all the magic.

Gorgeous Photos for Save-the-Dates, Wedding Décor & More

Let’s not forget one of the best perks of doing engagement photos: you get beautiful images to use for all sorts of wedding-related things! From save-the-dates to your wedding website, invitations, guest book, and even prints for your reception, engagement photos give you a stunning collection of images that celebrate this special time in your life.

And after the wedding? Your engagement photos are perfect for printing and hanging in your home! While your wedding photos will capture the big, once-in-a-lifetime moments, your engagement session is all about the everyday love you share—just the two of you, relaxed and in love.

Less Stress, More Fun on Your Wedding Day

One of the biggest benefits of doing an engagement session? It makes your wedding day photos even better. Since you’ll already know what to expect from working with me, you’ll feel way more relaxed and confident in front of the camera. You’ll also know that you can trust me to guide you, which means less stress and more time focusing on soaking in your big day.

Plus, since we’ll have spent time together at your engagement session, I’ll already know how you two interact, what kinds of poses feel the most natural, and what little details make your love story unique. That means I can capture your wedding day in a way that’s even more personal and meaningful to you.

Ready to Plan Your Engagement Session?

If you weren’t already convinced, I hope you are now! Engagement photos are so much more than just another box to check off your wedding to-do list. They’re a chance to celebrate your love, have fun together, and create beautiful images you’ll treasure forever.

So, if you’re ready to plan a fun, relaxed engagement session where we capture your love story in the most authentic way, let’s chat! I’d love to be your third wheel for the evening and help you get comfortable in front of the camera before the big day. Let’s make some magic together!
