I get asked all the time: Are engagement photos important? I always answer with a resounding… YES! I include engagement photos in most of my packages for good reason. They are important!

Whether you’re getting married in a city that I service (basically all of CA, Savannah, GA and the Low Country) or a gorgeous destination, an engagement session is the perfect opportunity for us to get to know eachother, for you to learn how I work, and get out all the awkward poses and nervous jitters before your wedding day. These sessions are meant to be fun! I want you both to feel confident, comfortable and learn which poses are authentic to you. When your wedding day rolls around you will feel like pros because you had the engagement session to practice.

WHY ELSE ARE ENGAGEMENT PHOTOS IMPORTANT?

These photos will also give you an opportunity to have beautiful, professional photos not in your wedding attire. Many couples use photos for a custom guest book (yes, I offer those), save-the-dates or photos on the backside of thier wedding invitation. Some even display their engagement photos around their wedding venue as decorations.
