I was nervous. I won’t lie. Since New Years Day, there hasn’t been a 24 hour period where it hasn’t rained at all. But driving to Quinton in Birmingham on Saturday morning the sky was grey but bright and more importantly... DRY!
Meeting Chloe and Rhys was a real pleasure. Listening to them talk about their upcoming wedding in March at Birmingham Registry Office, it was clear they’re both so excited and looking forward to it!
I was also introduced Narla, their little pooch who, unfortunately, can’t be there on the day so we took this chance of getting a couple of nice pictures to add to the family album.
ARE ENGAGEMENT PHOTOS NECESSARY?
Short answer? Yes.
Engagement photos are not just “nice to have”. They are one of the smartest things you can do before your wedding.
Your engagement session gives you the chance to meet your photographer properly, get comfortable in front of the camera and understand how they work. On your wedding day, you don’t want to feel like you’re being photographed by a stranger. You want to feel relaxed, confident and completely at ease.
That trust makes a huge difference. It shows in the images.
For couples in Wolverhampton, Birmingham, Staffordshire and Shropshire, engagement photos are a brilliant way to ease into the experience before the big day. You’ll quickly realise that being photographed isn’t awkward when it’s relaxed, candid and natural.
That’s exactly why engagement sessions are included free in all wedding packages. They’re not an upsell. They’re part of the process.
