Do you offer a pre wedding shoot & how does it work?
Here’s how it works and why so many couples are glad they did it.
Why Do a Pre-Wedding Shoot?
Let’s be real: most people feel a bit awkward in front of the camera at first. A pre-wedding shoot is the perfect way to shake that off. It gives us the chance to meet up, have a relaxed chat, and take some natural, informal photos together—no pressure, no awkward posing, no weird prom-style hands.
By the time your wedding rolls around, you’ll already feel comfortable with me, the camera, and how I work which means you’ll feel more relaxed on the day, and the photos will reflect that.
What’s the Vibe?
We try to find a warm, golden evening (you know the ones - soft light, that dreamy golden hour glow) and head to a location that suits you. This could be somewhere meaningful to you both, or just a lovely outdoor spot with space to roam, chat, and have a laugh.
We’ll talk about:
What kind of photos you love
What feels natural vs what doesn’t
Any shots or styles you really don’t like (totally valid!)
A few easy ideas to try out together
The aim isn’t to stage anything - it’s to capture you being yourselves.
What Happens After?
After the shoot, I’ll carefully edit the images and deliver them to you in a private online gallery, just like your wedding photos. You can download them, share them, and even use them for save-the-dates or your wedding website if you fancy!
Is It for Everyone?
Not every couple chooses to do one, and that’s absolutely fine. But if you're a bit nervous about being photographed, or you just like the idea of having some gorgeous, relaxed photos of the two of you before the big day—then yes, it’s a lovely little extra to consider.
