Thread: Engagement photos

word up i've done a few engagement sets you can refer to

I hope you have some experience in professional photography. Take some natural photographs. They will look better when they don't pose for the photos. It will give a very natural look. Some unexpected shots will give you amazing results.

You can take some casual photographs of them which you can use it for their wedding invitation. Rather than putting their engagement photos, you can try these pre-wedding photographs for their invitation.

Just browse the net and check for the professionals’' photographs. Learn from them. It will really help you to get the angles. But remember one thing. You can't use same angle for everybody. Every individual has a unique angle which shows them look better. So check with some test shots.

I wish you all the very best. Share some of the photographs later if you could.

I'd love to tag along too if you guys wouldn't mind. I've been asked to do a ridiculous amount of wedding stuff lately, but haven't had any experience so I've turned them down. I'd love to get some experience shooting this type stuff. Let me know.

For inspiration, google Jasmine Star, Greg Bumatay, and Jessica Claire

As always - shoot when the light is nice and soft - generally around the magic hours for sunrise and sunset.

Avoid mid-day when the sun it bright and hot (it seems like non-photo people always think it's best to take photos in the middle of the day since it's bright), it'll only cause harsh shadows, lots of squinting, and poor light control.
