Morristown, NJ Engagement photographer | Fall edition
You’ve got engaged! Congratulations on the beginning of this exciting journey!
Probably you’ve started planning or thinking in your list of things “to-do” for your upcoming wedding, and have asked your self if you need an engagement session.
“Do I really need an engagement session?”, “Why do other couples decide on doing this?”
Walking together, hand in hand, living life to the fullest!
Some of the most common reasons why couples decide to do an engagement session are:
You’ll be marrying the love of your life and you just want to capture these moments so you can cherish them forever! Look back at those pictures when you get older together.
Share the exciting news to family and friends. All the people you love share your excitement of embarking into this journey, they want to be part of this happiness, and seeing these pictures is very special for them too.
Couples use the pictures from their engagement session for making their save-the-date cards. Since these cards will be mailed to all of your weddings guests, you want to make sure to include pictures you really love of both of you.
Probably both of you may be nervous about your wedding day pictures and what it’ll be like. Having an engagement session gives you an idea of what your portraits will look like, what works best for you as a couple; ensuring you feel confident for your big day.
I’ve heard brides and grooms come up with these phrases during the session “I had no idea this was my best side!”, “I didn’t know we could look this good in pictures”, “I was so nervous and thought I was not good with pictures”. Our goal as photographers is to make our clients feel beautiful and comfortable, and we can make this possible by choosing the right angles or the most flattering sides.
I love providing directions to my clients, when I see they’re nervous or in the mood “I don’t know how to pose or what to do”, I start by helping them pose, make them relax and then as they loosen up through the session, we try candid poses and I let them just be themselves! This is one of the reasons why couples usually loves the pictures we did towards the middle to the end of the session, because they warmed up and now feel they can trust me.
If you’re looking a photographer to capture this special moment for you, specially during the beautiful upcoming season (fall), reach out to me. I would be thrilled to be part of this special moment for you!
