Engagement Sessions
The E-Session is SO hot right now… And with good reason!
The engagement photo shoot commemorates the most special time between a couple! For most, this is the first time a couple has ever had a series of photographs taken of them, and surely its the first go-round with a professional photographer. This is a time for the happy hubby and wife-to-be to get comfortable both with their photographer, and in front of the camera. And the results? Several framers of you and your fiance that can be used on your Save-The-Dates, in your Wedding Guest Book, as gifts to the in-laws, or just for your own enjoyment (FB Profile Pic!).
This photo-shoot is all about the couple. Yes, the wedding day is about the couple too, but no matter how hard you try to schedule those newlywed shots on your wedding day, there will be less time to focus, and way more adrenaline rushing through you and driving you to get into that reception! If you have had an E-session, not only do you have to stress about getting as many shots together, but you will make more efficient use of the time you do have, because your photographer already understands how to work with you as a couple! So throw that E-session into your photography package – it will definitely be worth it!
