FAQs

What's the difference between proposal and engagement photos?

Proposal photos capture the spontaneous, surprise moment when the question is popped, focusing on raw emotions. Engagement photos are planned sessions that reflect the couple's personality and relationship, usually taken after the proposal.

How can I make my proposal photoshoot special?

Choose a meaningful location, incorporate personal elements, and coordinate with your photographer in advance. Consider props or outfits that represent your relationship, and let your genuine emotions shine through for authentic, memorable images.

What photography style is best for telling a love story?

A blend of photojournalistic and posed styles often works best. This combination captures both candid, authentic moments and carefully composed portraits, creating a comprehensive visual narrative of your journey from proposal to wedding day.

How can I feel more comfortable during my wedding photoshoot?

Communicate openly with your photographer about your preferences and concerns. Choose a photographer whose style matches your personality. Practice being in front of the camera during your engagement session, and on the wedding day, try to relax and focus on your partner rather than the camera.

What moments should be captured in wedding photography?

Key moments include the proposal, engagement celebrations, pre-wedding preparations, the ceremony (especially vows and traditions), and reception highlights like first dances and toasts. Don't forget the small, intimate moments and details that make your day unique.
