Many of my couples aren’t interested in engagement pictures, and I totally get it. Most of my couples are shy in front of the camera and feel silly or just don’t like getting their picture taken.
I used to feel the same way.
That is until I learned how to pose myself and hide my double chin 😉 and large arms.
I’m here to tell you that if you don’t have any good pictures of yourself, especially with your betrothed, then you just haven’t been in front of the right photographer.
It is all about posing, lighting and feeling comfortable and relaxed.
Personally, I think it is a good idea to have Engagement pictures taken if you don’t have many photos of you two together. This way, not all of the photos of you two are in wedding clothes.
It is also a great way to get to know your wedding photographer and see how you communicate. A taste test, if you will.
