making the most of your engagement session

We like to include a complimentary engagement session with each of our album packages for a couple of reasons. Firstly, it gives us another excuse to get out in this beautiful part of the country and make gorgeous portraits of fun c o u p l e s . S e c o n d l y, a n d m o r e importantly, it gives us all a chance to get to know one another.

You have an opportunity to experience what it is like in front of the lens and we get to understand what type of portraits are important to you These are all things that are best not left until your wedding day.

During your session, you will also get to know your photographer on a more personal level which can be just as important as the quality of the images they produce.

Remember, your photographer is generally the only wedding supplier who will be with you for the entire day. From the hair and make-up preparations, right through to your wedding reception, you and your photographer will be spending a lot of time together, so you want to make sure they are the type of person you want along for the ride.

Leading up to your wedding, you may also find that it is very handy to have current, professional portraits of the two of you as a couple These images can be used on ‘save-the-date’ cards or your wedding invitations Some people like to have a large portrait at the entrance to their reception, or for the ultimate keepsake, some of our packages include beautiful custom Guest Books

Our Guest Books include images from your engagement session and also enough white space for your guests to leave their own heartfelt messages on your special day They come with an extensive selection of cover fabrics and feature the same museum quality, fine art paper as your wedding album.

So, when planning what you would like from your photographer, don’t forget about our complimentary engagement sessions and try to book as early as you can The earlier we shoot your engagement session, the longer you’ll have to plan just what you’d like to use your images for.
