Top Tips for Successful Engagement Photos

With the increasing trend of engagement photoshoots now taking over the UK, any photographer will know that this is a lucrative market that can help to expand their portfolio and offer more business. Engagement shoots are great opportunity that allows you to connect with the happy couple before their big day. There’s no pressure compared to the wedding day, so you can really get to know them and help them to capture their happiest moments.

As these photos will most probably be sent out as ‘save the dates’ to friends and family, you really need to impress everyone and show off your skills. These photos are going to be the first piece of work that will be exposed to everyone they know, and everyone that will be attending the wedding, so the pressure is definitely on.

Of course the great benefit of an engagement shoot is that with the release of your work, instead of being the anonymous photographer on their wedding day, their guests will flock to you to compliment you on the beautiful engagement photos. Making conversation more natural and flow freely, they’ll be much more relaxed when you’re demanding their attention for photos when they’ve seen what you can do. Besides friendly co-operation goes along way when you’re in the rush of wedding photography.
