Yesterday I had this great couple- whom I had never met, come to me for an engagement session. Most of the time I shoot engagement sessions for couples whose wedding I am going to be shooting. This was a bit different- they wanted engagement photos as they were getting married out of the area. In the northern Wisconsin (Minocqua) area-
So the very cool thing about this session...........................Is by the time they left...they decided that I was the photographer for for their wedding up north next September. I was/am so thrilled as I know it will be a blast, and will be in a very beautiful place. Jennifer and Juan are a great couple and eventually want to live up in that area. Juan originally from Chicago wants to be a game warden up north- how cool is that..


(By the way engagement photos are a win-win situation. You get some great non wedding shots- that you can use for your wedding and announcements and newspaper and etc... but more importantly it gives you a great opportunity to get to know the guy who you will be spending your wedding day with. More and more couples have told me that it made a huge difference and as a result I think it shows in the photos. So take a good suggestion from me- do an engagement session if you can. They are fun, they are inexpensive, and you get to know your photographer, as well as getting some great shots.
