This is probably the most common question I get asked. As your photographer, my goal is to help you feel relaxed and capture genuine, authentic moments. Below you can find some tips to help you prepare for your photo shoot:
The intimacy between you two is something I can’t create
It’s something we will capture naturally and I want your photos to reflect the unique connection you share. I’ll observe how you interact with each other and encourage you to repeat those small, natural gestures that feel right for you both. I avoid stiff, posed shots and focus on creating a fun, relaxed atmosphere. Expect lots of movement, laughter, and a mix of posed and candid moments. If anything feels awkward, we'll laugh it off and keep going - no pressure! I’ll guide you through simple, natural poses, like holding hands or sharing a kiss, and adjust them as needed to keep things feeling fresh and real.
And here’s how you can help:
Ignore the camera and focus on each other—just enjoy the moment! Try placing your loose hand on your partner to create a more connected and intimate feel. Remember, the more natural you are, the better the photos will be. And if there’s anything you feel self-conscious about, let me know. I’ll make adjustments to help you feel more comfortable in front of the camera. Feel free to move around, interact and improvise if you feel like it; the more you’re in the moment, the more authentic your photos will look.
My goal is to help you look and feel like yourselves.
There’s no need to worry about perfect poses! Relax, have fun, and trust me to guide you through the process to capture real, effortless engagement or wedding photos.
