Engagement Shoot Inspiration Ideas

As couples are booking wedding dates for next year, engagement season is coming up and many coupes will be soon starting the search for wedding photographer.   Unless you’ve booked a professional photographer before and know exactly what you’re looking for, it might be a tedious task of sorting through what seems like thousands of photographers out there.  So how do you pick just one?

One of the best ways I recommend choosing a photographer is to have engagement portraits taken.  This will allow you a chance to see what it’s like being in front of the camera with that specific photographer.  Things like personalities, amount of direction, and rapport will build trust and help give you an idea what it would be like to be photographed on your wedding day.

Engagement sessions are also a fun way to celebrate things you love to do together.  Whether it’s hanging at the beach swimming and the ocean, dressing up and playing giant chess at a hotel, or play around at the home and garden store, there is no limit to how creative you can get!  Below are some inspiration ideas for engagement sessions.
