The weeks leading up to your wedding can be an exciting time filled with anticipation and wonder. You may be curious about whether or not having an engagement shoot is necessary. However, there are several good reasons why it's important.

Firstly, an engagement session allows you to get comfortable in front of the camera with your photographer and figure out how you work best together before your big day. Secondly, it's an opportunity to showcase your personality in a more relaxed setting, creating some fun photos that you can use for your wall display, wedding sign-in book, and thank-you cards.

If the photos are taken early enough, they can be used for your Save the Date cards and invitations. Your engagement photos will add another dimension to your wedding album, chronicling the story from your engagement to your wedding day. Most importantly, it's a chance for you to spend time together, away from the crowds of loved ones and friends, creating memories you can treasure forever.
