The new trend in wedding photography is to hire a professional to capture your engagement, and below are a few reasons why more people are jumping on this wagon than before.

• This is a unique opportunity to become comfortable in front of the camera.

• You and your photographer will get to know each other much better via communication during the session, in which vision of the wedding photos can be discussed as well.

• It'll give you a chance to reconnect with your significant other.

• You'll get a preview of the pictures, professionally taken, before the wedding.

• You'll have gorgeous photos to use on save the date invite.

I'm taking this year to show appreciation to clients by giving out a complimentary engagement session. We'll get to chat a bit throughout the course. I'll find out the name of your dog, and you'll find out I hate donuts but love coffee. Even if you were not planning on having a wedding yet, still, give me a shout to schedule a couple session, and we will let the photos to do the "persuading."
