“Just You, Me, a Camera… and Probably Some Laughing”

I love it when you choose to add an engagement shoot (or pre-wedding shoot – call it what you like!). It’s a brilliant way for us to hang out, get to know each other, and give you a feel for how I work before the big day. No pressure, no awkward posing – just a fun, relaxed session that ends with some great photos you'll want to keep forever. Not everyone goes for one, but if you’re up for it, it’s always a good laugh and totally worth it.
