Week 13 | 7-9 months prior to wedding day
Hello Beautiful!
Let’s step away from all the wedding day planning and talk about your engagement session!
This is NOT supposed to be stressful, have some fun with it! You’ll spend a couple of hours capturing sweet moments of you with your fiance.
DesiWeds Insights:
– You do not have to wear matching outfits, like, maybe don’t you wear a formal dress and he shows up in shorts and flip flops. But, complimentary outfits look amazing in photos.
– Pick locations that are meaningful to you. Possibly where you had your first date, a specific park that you love, or the university where you met. All these make for great backdrops for photos that you will cherish for the rest of your life.
– Think about taking a variety of photos that you can use on your website, enlarge and use on wedding day, and even use in your slideshow at your reception.
ACTION ITEMS
Action items:
- Call your photographer (and videographer if applicable) to schedule a date
- Sunrise and sunset pictures are usually the best time for great natural light
- Plan to do this at least 6-months before wedding day (so you can use them on the website)
- Think about the outfits that you want to wear. Remember that changing outfits will eat away from your session time, so I recommend only changing once.
- Go dressed in the outfit that takes longer to put on!!
