Engagement Photo Tips and Ideas

Even though you may not be planning to have engagement photos taken, or have it in your budget, it is a good idea to work with your photographer before the day of your wedding.  You should try to fit this in and request an engagement session.  Besides, these sessions can be so fun that you wouldn't want to miss out!

My top 5 suggestions for a successful engagement photo shoot:

1. Select a photographer that suits you.  This person will be with you on one of the most important days of your life so you will definitely want to like them.  Do your homework and find one that you "click" with.

2. Select a location that you are comfortable with and excited about.  Whether it is a park, Disneyland, or climbing up the side of a mountain, you will want it to reflect your personalities and style as a couple.

3. Ask for a warm up shoot.  This will give the two of you time to get comfortable with a camera capturing your every move and it will give the photographer time to see how you react to situations.

4. Have extra clothes along.  This way you will get some different "looks" in your photos.  Besides, you might decide that you really don't like one of the outfits.

5. Be yourself and have fun!  I think this is self-explanatory.
