What to Know Before Your Engagement Shoot
2

• Most couples dont consider an engagement
  session as important as their wedding photoshoot.
  In other words, it is just optional for
  them.However, getting an engagement shoot is
  essential for many reasons. First, it allows you
  to get comfortable with your photographers ahead
  of the wedding. It will give you an idea about
  their work and aesthetics. As an added bonus, you
  get an ideal opportunity to get used to being in
  front of the lens, especially if you are a
  camera, conscious person. You can use your
  photographs in wedding décor or on gifts for
  loved ones.

Scheduling

• Many clients schedule the engagement session
  on a weekend. Thats why photographers are
  jam-packed handling several clients on the same
  day. Perhaps you dont get the favorable date for
  your weekend shoot.Therefore, it does make
  sense to schedule the session on weekdays as
  photographers have more time and energy to make
  your photo session amazing. Another benefit is
  that beaches and parks are less crowded during
  the week.

Location

• Generally, an engagement shoot is more
  often performed outside or in a special location
  rather than in a studio. From the clients home
  to historical buildings like castles, beaches,
  gardens and forests, there are endless options
  where you can get the shoot done. Make sure the
  location complements your tastes. The area also
  should be comfortable for both of you. You can
  consult your photographers for some suggestions
  if you are not sure what works best for you.

Outfits

• From makeup to hairstyle and attire,
  engagement shoots give you an opportunity to
  figure out what looks best on you. Wear the
  clothes that are comfortable and speak to your
  tastes. If you love casuals, just wear them. Here
  are some tips helping you deciding the outfits
  for an engagement shootAccording to the season
  (no stilettos on the beach or bare thighs in the
  snow)

Posing

• The more you feel relaxed and confident, the
  better photos your photographer can shoot. Have
  your genuine moments captured like when your
  fiancée is dabbing lipstick off to your face. Do
  the things as if the photographer is not even
  there with you.
