5 reasons to have an engagement photo session

Interact with your Wedding Photographer

It is common for people to be nervous about doing a photo session with people they do not know. This is because such sessions require a certain level of vulnerability that can only manifest in familiarity. Having an engagement session will help you create a rapport with your wedding photographer in preparation for your wedding day. It will also help the photographer learn your personality to capture unique moments that you will love. After the photos are out, you will be able to judge the photos’ quality and decide on whether to choose another photographer.

Get Comfortable in Front of the Camera

If you are camera shy or generally hate taking photos, your confidence in photo sessions may be low. Having an engagement session will help you familiarize yourself with camera poses. You will not only learn your best angles but also how to pose. This will boost your confidence in getting quality photos on your wedding day.
