Why Engagement Sessions Matter

An engagement session isn’t just about beautiful photos—it’s also a chance for us to build a connection before your wedding day. You’ll get comfortable in front of the camera, and I’ll learn more about your dynamic as a couple. This ensures that, come your wedding day, capturing your most heartfelt moments will feel seamless and natural.

All of my wedding packages include a complimentary engagement session because I believe it’s an essential step in creating a seamless wedding day experience. This session not only allows us to build a comfortable connection before your big day but also provides you with beautiful images to share with loved ones and incorporate into your engagement announcements.

What to Expect

  • A Collaborative Process: We’ll start with a consultation to discuss your vision, locations, and overall vibe.

  • Relaxed Atmosphere: I’ll guide you through poses and prompts to create natural, effortless images while keeping the experience light and enjoyable.

  • Sneak Peek Photos: You will receive around 10-15 sneak peek photos within 24-48 hours of your engagement session in a private, online digital gallery.

Tips For a Seamless Engagement Session

Your engagement session is more than just a photo shoot—it's a special moment to capture the excitement of your love story before your big day. Along with what to expect, here are some tips to help create a seamless and unforgettable experience:

  • Invest in a Professional Photographer. This may seem obvious, but it’s worth mentioning: hiring a professional photographer ensures your engagement photos are nothing short of extraordinary. Your love story deserves to be documented with care, artistry, and attention to detail—and that’s where I come in.

  • Dress Comfortably, but Make It Elevated. Your wardrobe plays a huge role in how you feel during your session. Choose outfits that make you feel confident and comfortable—when you’re at ease, it shows in the photos. Opt for color-coordinated looks that complement each other without being too matching. Want a touch of creativity? Go for bold textures, layers, or statement pieces. And if you’re unsure, I’m always here to offer styling guidance tailored to your vision.

  • A Perfect Time to Test the Details. Think of your engagement session as rehearsal for your wedding day. It’s a chance to get comfortable in front of the camera with my photography style. It’s also the ideal opportunity to test your hair and makeup—ensuring everything looks perfect for your big day.

  • Tailored to You. My engagement sessions typically last about an hour, but the exact timing depends on the location and any travel required to reach your perfect backdrop. Every detail is planned with your comfort and preferences in mind, creating a seamless and unforgettable experience.
