5 Tips To Plan Your Engagement Session

One big reason I include a complimentary Engagement Session with most of my packages is because it really is a wonderful way to get to know my couples better before their wedding. Every photographer is different, but for me, the more I know about you, the more connected I will feel to you and the more information I will have in my mind to work with on the day of the wedding. What that means is a better product in the end, and richer, more meaningful imagery.

The Benefit Of Elopements

Elopements are such an amazing expression towards each other, the photography is more important than ever. It captures the intimacy, authenticity and real feelings of the day. What is documented is more than a time slot of images that were captured based on cues or prompts. They are captured during a day or organic feelings and moments that unfold naturally.

Adventure Engagement Sessions Are Kind Of A Big Deal.

It is extremely important to wear what you feel epic in! It goes a long way. If you feel confident, it will shine through into your photos. It’s always fun to bring an extra outfit to your session too. You can have two styles, one dressier outfit and one more casual one. This is again where I like to reiterate my feeling about wearing flats and bringing heels if they’re wanting them for the photos. We may hike across a beach or through a forest trail. Who knows, it’s an adventure!

The world around you would cease to exist as your heart raced. The memory of the whole moment would be nothing but a blur.

Biggest Boudoir Myths

there are no rules for what you must wear. You are sexy in your own skin, so clothing is optional. You are always welcome to go as nude as you like, but you are also welcome to stay in whatever you feel confident in. The session is about making you feel epic in your own skin and as the photographer of your session, my goal is to show you how you really look vs how you see yourself and how you really look is gorgeous!!!
