Your wedding day is just one chapter in your love story — and engagement photography captures the prelude beautifully. As Chennai’s top wedding & event photographer, here’s why I believe every couple should consider an engagement shoot — and how to make it unforgettable.
What Makes Engagement Photos Special
- It gives you a chance to be comfortable in front of the camera before the big day.
- These images can be used for save-the-dates, wedding invites, social media announcements, and decor at the reception.
- Engagement sessions let your personality shine — candid moments, laughter, real connection.
Style & Trends in Engagement / Event Photography
- Candid & Lifestyle Shots — spontaneous, emotional moments.
- Fine Art / Dreamy Portraits — soft lighting, romantic vibes.
- Urban / Location Shoots — using city landmarks, nature, or heritage backdrops.
- Pre-wedding + Proposal Shoots — combining surprise proposal with engagement portraits.
How to Plan a Perfect Engagement Session
- Choose a meaningful location — your first date spot, favorite cafe, scenic outdoor sites.
- Timing & light — golden hour (just after sunrise / before sunset) gives soft, flattering light.
- Wardrobe & styling — coordinate (not match), avoid overly busy patterns.
- Props & personal touches — bring items that reflect your story (books, musical instruments, travel maps).
- Trust your photographer — a good photographer will guide you in posing, expressions, and capturing candid moments.
