Engagement Photos/Pre-Wedding Session
Hi there!
I think it’s very important for a photographer to get to know the bride and groom-to-be before their big day. A good way to accomplish that is to offer the couple a pre-wedding photo session.
I went to Parliament Hill with Lianne and Marc. The session took about 1.5 hours. I got to see how they react in front of a camera while they got to see how the person they’ll probably be with the most on their wedding day–namely, their photographer, works.
At the start of the session, the couple will typically be a bit nervous and self-conscious. This is especially true for the guys. I can totally relate: it’s hard to know what to expect and what will be asked of us.
I’ve always said portrait photography is a collaboration, and the more the couple participates, the better the results. Lianne and Marc illustrate this well. I’m very much looking forward to shooting their wedding this Saturday. It’ll be a great!! (Did I ever mention that I love my work and just love shooting weddings. ;-) )
The wedding season is in full swing for me and things are going really well. Even the weather has been on our side for our last weddings: so far, so good. Let’s hope the trend continues! We’ll be at Mont-Tremblant the following weekend and then in St-Donat the week after that. I’m getting more and more requests to shoot out-of-town weddings and I really enjoy these opportunities. It’s a great way to discover new spots and get to shoot using different backgrounds. (And it’s really fun to drive around in our SmartCar!)
2011 is filling up fast: if you want to book with us, this is the time to come and see us.
Hope you have a great Canada Day!!
Lianne et Marc
