WHY ENGAGEMENT SHOOTS ARE THE SECRET TO A STRESS-FREE WEDDING

Planning a wedding is such an exciting journey, but I know it can sometimes feel a little overwhelming too. With so much to organise, it’s easy to start worrying about how everything will come together on the day.

One of the things I hear most from couples is that they’re nervous about being in front of the camera. That’s completely natural, but there’s a way to take that pressure off before the big day even arrives. That’s where an engagement shoot comes in.

An engagement session is more than just a set of lovely photographs. It’s the perfect chance to get comfortable in front of the lens, build confidence, and make sure your wedding day photos feel natural and effortless.



WHY NERVES SHOW UP IN PHOTOS


Most of us aren’t used to being photographed professionally, so it’s normal to wonder if you’ll look awkward, what you should do with your hands, or how you’ll pose. Add the emotions of the wedding day into the mix and those worries can sometimes feel magnified. Having an engagement shoot is the best way to ease those nerves.


THE BENEFITS OF AN ENGAGEMENT SHOOT


I love engagement shoots because they give us time together before the wedding. You’ll learn what it’s like to work with me, how I give direction, and how we can create photographs that feel like you. By the time your wedding day arrives, everything will feel familiar and comfortable, which means you’ll be able to relax and simply enjoy the moment.

It’s also a wonderful chance to capture your story at this special stage of your journey. Many couples choose to use their engagement photographs for save-the-dates or wedding websites, while others just treasure them as a beautiful reminder of this chapter in their lives.

THREE TIPS FOR A MEMORABLE ENGAGEMENT SHOOT


  1. Choose a location that feels meaningful to you. Somewhere that reflects your story together, whether it’s a favourite spot for walks, the café where you first met, or simply somewhere you love spending time.

  2. Wear clothes that make you feel confident and comfortable; when you feel good, it always shows in the photographs.

  3. And most importantly, treat it like a date. Forget about the camera, enjoy each other’s company, and let me take care of the rest.
