Engagement Sessions

Thursday, February 8th, 2007

Engagement Sessions or short e-sessions give you beautiful, relaxed images that can also be used to announce the engagement.

Another great thing about an e-session is that the couple get to meet and work with their photographer, they can find out how they get along with them and most likely will be much more relaxed during the photo shoot on their wedding day.

And finally: what better time is there to take photos then when you’re in love?

And who could show this better than Azhar & Shakib, a very cute couple we recently photograped in Germany?

Look at the examples on this Blog—you will love what you will get from me!

Guys!

Oh man! Especially for the groom the preparation time to a wedding can turn into “personal stress”. It’s just not your thing, everything is about the bride and many of the things that are so important to her, just aren’t your cup of tea.

Our tip: Be a man about it!
Think of what is important to you, what special things you would like to do on this day. And discuss it with your love. Most likely there are some things she will enjoy as well.

A nice habit we saw in the States, in England and in Ireland: the groom presents the man of honor and the groomsmen with some special gifts. Sometimes it’s a pocket watch, often it’s a flask, that needs to be “tested” right away ;-)

Hey, but don’t go over the top!

Go for colors!

Color wedding dresses are nothing new. But now it looks like this trend is also coming to a lot of European countries.
Australia has been on the cutting-edge for years and top notch wedding magazines like Vogue Sposa and Sposa White show how exciting and outstanding colored bridal fashion can be.

Very elegant: a matching bouquet. The add-on Il Matrimonio perfetto to Vogue Sposa 1/2007 has a multi-page segment on beautiful unicolored bouquets.

In the end: it doesn’t always have to be white!
