Stewart & Tony – engagement shoot

Tis the season to get married (apparently we’re supposed to have better weather this time of year…), and this Friday, I’m lucky enough to be the photographer at Stewart & Tony’s ceremony.  I’m really looking forward to it, and have had some fun nosing round the venues in advance, scouting for lovely locations.

When working with wedding clients I have not met before, I like to offer a complimentary engagement shoot as part of the package.  The shoot gives me a chance to spend an hour having fun with the couple, allows us to get to know each other a bit, and to relax in each others’ company.  Wedding days are often kind of busy, so it’s hugely beneficial for both photographer and client to be at ease with one another, and for both parties to have a good idea about what to expect from the other on the big day.  We have time to find poses that work, find out likes, and more importantly, dislikes.  It’s also a really nice add-on for the client, as they get some couple portraits that hopefully they love, in a location of their choice.
