First of all, if you just got engaged, CONGRATULATIONS!!! Being engaged is such an exciting time of life, there is so much to do but it’s all so exciting because it ends with marrying the love of your life! It can go by really quickly so be sure to savor every second of it. One great way to treasure this time in your life is by getting engagement photos taken. If you’ve never had professional pictures taken, this may seem nerve-wracking, but I promise you it will be worth it!

Keep scrolling to see my top 5 reasons why engagement photos are a must.

1. They are a Great Way to Get to know Your Photographer

Your engagement session is a great opportunity to get to know your photographer and become more comfortable with them. Your wedding photographer is going to be a big part of your wedding day, so you want to make sure you enjoy spending time with them. Your photographer should help you feel comfortable and make sure that your engagement session is a wonderful memory to look back on. If you get to know your photographer before your wedding day, it will only add joy to your wedding day.

2. They Help You Feel More Comfortable in Front of the Camera

On your wedding day, you will be in front of the camera for basically the entire day. If you're usually not the center-of-attention type of person, don't panic! Your engagement session is the perfect time to help you feel more comfortable being in front of the camera. Your photographer will be there to give you tips on how to pose and look your best. An engagement session is the perfect way to practice poses and find your best angles.

3. You Can Use Them as Decoration on Your Wedding Day

Incorporating your engagement photos into your wedding decor is a simple, meaningful, and not to mention cheap, way to add a lot of personality to your wedding day. You can use them on your table centerpieces or even create a viewing area during your cocktail hour or reception so your guests have something to look at. There are so many different ways to use them, just take a scroll through Pinterest and find what inspires you.

4. They Create Lifelong Memories

You are only engaged for a short amount of time, and with all of the stress of planning, it can be hard to treasure every part of it. Engagement photos are the perfect way to savor this precious time in your life and create memories that you can look back on for the rest of your life. You only get to be a fiancé for a small portion of your life, make the most of it!

5. Why Not!

After all these reasons, why not just go for it? It will be a wonderful experience with you and your fiancé that you will be able to look back on for years.

Kind Words

“Kendra is seriously the absolute best! She has done our engagement and wedding photos, she even did a boudoir shoot for a surprise for my husband on our wedding day and let me tell you she did NOT disappoint in any of those! She is personal and will answer all your questions and she will make you absolutely comfortable taking all the pictures! I highly recommend her business! Oh and did I mention she love to travel so getting her to go to another state is not an issue! I will definitely be booking family photos next!”
