Engagement Session & Wedding Day Photography Timeline Tips
Engagement Sessions: The Perfect Practice Run for Wedding Photos
Your engagement session is the ideal opportunity to get comfortable in front of the camera and try out different poses before your wedding day. It’s your practice run for those stunning newlywed portraits!
I recommend booking your engagement session 4-8 months in advance to avoid any last-minute stress.
Location-wise, I love when couples choose a spot with sentimental value—like the place of your first date, the proposal location, or somewhere special to your relationship. But if you prefer a beautiful backdrop, that works too!
Need ideas for locations? Don’t hesitate to ask—I’m happy to suggest spots around your area. And of course, furry friends are always welcome to join in the fun!

Wedding Day Reminders for Smooth Photography
Keep the Rings Close: The most commonly forgotten detail is the rings! Hold onto them until after the detail shots so we can capture their beauty.
Delegate Tasks: Allow your bridal party to help with the wedding morning tasks to reduce stress and keep the mood relaxed. Communicate with them in advance!
Gather Details Early: Having your details ready when the photographer arrives saves time and ensures nothing is missing.
Don’t Forget the Bouquet & Boutonnieres: Ensure your flowers are delivered before the first look so you can have them during your bridal portraits.
Consider Travel Time: Always factor in travel time between locations to avoid delays.
Build in Buffer Time: Add a 10-15 minute cushion here and there. It’s better to have extra time than feel rushed!
By following these tips and creating a timeline that works for you, we’ll be able to capture your wedding day in the most relaxed and beautiful way possible!
