Snapshots of Sentiment

Has he popped the big question?  Are you ready to take your relationship to the next level?  The moment at which she sees the gorgeous ring for the first time is one of the happiest times in a woman’s life.  This is an exciting, happy time for a couple as they form an unbreakable bond.

Endless possibilities exist when it comes to an engagement.  There are so many places where the engagement could take place.  Did he propose in a fancy restaurant, under the sparkling evening sky, on a walk through the woods?  Did he slip the ring on your finger at Lakeside Amusement Park, or while you were horseback riding at the Ranch Resort?

No matter where or how he proposed, this is a special moment that you will always hold in your heart.  Although you may not have been able to have a photographer there at your actual engagement, you can still capture the meaning of this moment.  Engagement photos not only make you feel like your engagement is more “official,” but are a fabulous opportunity to have fun with your spouse-to-be.  Some people are skeptical of the importance of engagement photos.  These pictures can sometimes look staged and fake.  But we believe that they are really an opportunity to showcase the true “chemistry” in your relationship.  Your engagement photo session gives you a chance to be relaxed and in love.  They are also a time for you to go back to the place you first met your fiance, where he took you on your first date, or where you got engaged.  You can relive some of the best moments in your relationship during this session.  Your decision to get engagement photos taken is a decision to make a memento of this special and unique time in your relationship.

Along with being keepsakes that you will cherish forever, engagement photos have many different uses.  One of the more common uses is for newspaper announcements, but can be used for “save-the-date” cards, wedding invitations, or even gifts for family and friends.  They are also a chance for you to get to know your wedding photographer.  Engagement photos give us a chance to work with you and establish a good relationship with you, before the wedding activities get into full swing.  They provide you with an opportunity to find out what kind of photos you like, so you can point us in a direction that will make you happiest.  After all, this is a time for you and your fiance to be happy and more in love than you have ever been.
