Izzy & Brian’s Engagement
Izzy & Brian litteraly reached out last minute. It just so happened that they wanted the exact location, date and time that I was already shooting another engagement. So we decided to meet right after my first sessions and I’m glad we did. These photos were taken at Trump National Golf Course on Lake Norman right north of Charlotte North Carolina. I love being a Charlotte wedding photographer. The boat ride was awesome!
As a wedding photographer, one of the most enjoyable parts of my job is capturing beautiful and romantic engagement photos for couples. Posing a couple for an engagement photo session can be a bit of a challenge, but with a little bit of guidance and some creative ideas, you can create stunning and memorable images that the couple will treasure for years to come.
Here are a few tips for posing a couple for an engagement photo session:
Start with the basics: Have the couple stand facing each other, with their bodies slightly angled towards each other. This creates a sense of intimacy and connection.
Use props: Incorporating props into the photo shoot can add visual interest and help create a sense of context. This could be something as simple as a bouquet of flowers or a picnic blanket.
Experiment with different heights: Have the couple stand on different levels, such as a step or a piece of furniture, to add depth and interest to the photo.
Encourage natural poses: Instead of stiff, posed shots, try to capture more natural and candid moments. This could be the couple holding hands, hugging, or simply looking at each other with love in their eyes.
Get creative: Don't be afraid to try out different poses and angles. This could be something as simple as having the couple sit on a bench or lay on a blanket in a park.
Overall, the key to successful engagement photo posing is to relax, have fun, and be creative. By focusing on the couple's natural connection and using a variety of poses and props, you can create beautiful and timeless engagement photos that the couple will cherish forever.
