Behind the Lens: A Photographer’s Perspective on Engagement Sessions

If you are a newly engaged couple, shooting engagement photos may be on your mind. If its something that you are considering investing in, here are a few reasons why most wedding photographers say that engagement sessions are so important!

  1. Engagement sessions are actually practice in front of the camera for your wedding photos! Engagement sessions give your wedding photographer a chance to actually show you a few of the poses that you will do on your wedding. Hopefully, this helps you to feel confident and prepared for portraits on your wedding day!

  2. Engagement sessions are normally about an hour long which gives photographers plenty of time to capture beautiful, classic engagement photos as well as try out creative poses. Sometimes the creative poses involve movement, which result in candid photos that are normally your favorite photos from the entire session!

  3. Engagement sessions offer the opportunity to for us to get to know each other before the wedding! Your wedding photographer is one of the few wedding vendors that will likely be with you all day, so its important that we get along!
