Best of 2020 Engagement Sessions

Jan 28, 2021

The engagement session.

You may ask at first, what is the point of an engagement session. Do I need to have it in my wedding package? Is it worth it? My easy answer to this is YES!! They are so important!

I can’t express enough how important they are!

Honestly, they are my favorite photography session I provide. I absolutely love meeting my couple before the wedding day and creating a close connection with them during our time together. But not only is it beneficial to me, it is so helpful for my couple to feel comfortable as well.

It’s basically a test run for your wedding day!

We will go through how I pose and what angles are best to make you look the most flattering. It also allows my couples to feel comfortable in front of the lens together. By the end of every session, my couples basically forget there even is a camera. They are just excited to be laughing and hanging out together and getting to know me!

Can’t you see why they’re my favorite sessions?

Oh, and don’t let me forget, you get gorgeous photos of the two of you from the session. A full gallery of all the moments captured so that you can hang them in your house, use them on your save-the-dates, or even create a guestbook for your guests to sign at the wedding! There are so many opportunities! Also, let me ask you a question. When was the last time you two got dressed up and had professional photos taken? I’m going to guess most of you said not in a long time, or potentially never!

You deserve to have this photos to document your relationship!

And the best part? They are complimentary in all of my wedding collections! That’s how important I think they are! I want you to get to your wedding day and not be nervous at all about how you look! You’ll already know you look incredible because of those engagement photos! It will all come right back to you, so you can fully enjoy and feel confident throughout your entire wedding!
Still not sure? Take a look at my favorite images from my 2020 engagement sessions! I am so blessed to be a part of each of these couples’ journeys and so honored to capture their love! I can’t wait for my next engagement session, but in the meantime, I may be scrolling through these photos several times! I just can’t get over how amazing each of them are!
If you are one of these couples, I’m sending you the biggest hug! You make my job more amazing than I could have ever imagined! Thank you for making 2020 so incredible, even in such a crazy year!

XOXO ~ Heather Marie
