"What's an engagement session?"
An engagement session is a couples' portrait session. We do relaxed portraits, so we'll work with you in selecting locations or activities that say something about you, as a couple, and we'll get some killer images of the two of you in non-wedding day gear. We'll suggest casual poses, but we spend more time working with you to get natural reactions (read: real smiles, not oh-crap-it's-a-camera smiles) for really amazing pictures.
It's also a way to get to know each other better. After all, on your wedding day, you're surrounded by your closest friends and family, and two random photographers. We found that we have a much better working relationship with our couples when we have the chance to work together before the wedding. It gives you the chance to know us and become comfortable in front of the camera, and it gives us a chance to see how you interact as a couple so we know how to get the reactions from you that we want on your wedding day.
It also gives you some great photos of the two of you (seriously, how many photos of the two of you are with your arm reached out, holding the camera?!). People have used our engagement images for everything from canvases, Save the Date cards or magnets, guest books or signing boards for the wedding day, custom candy and even the wedding programs themselves.

"What is a typical wedding day like?"
We'll both normally show up where the bride is getting ready, until the groom is ready for Rich. Then he pops over, and we cover each of you getting ready. We meet up at the ceremony site to shoot your amazing wedding, and then we'll do family portraits, bridal party portraits and a couple's session before heading to your reception. (unless, of course, you opt for a first look)
We are documentary photographers, so we don't interrupt the flow of your day by dictating the way things should occur. We capture beautiful images of your day, the way it happens. Every wedding is truly unique, and we love to present you with images that capture the amazing details, interactions and reactions that make your day special. One of our favorite things is to be able to show a couple the things they missed, but also to show them the things they saw, but in a completely different perspective.
