Alison & Derek {E-Session}

For those of you who follow my blog regularly you will know how much I rave about the importance of engagement sessions for couples who are getting married.  Over the years I have noticed a HUGE difference in the outcome of the wedding photos where I have worked with the clients previously.  Having an engagement session allows both the client and myself get to know each other just a little bit better and it provides both of us an opportunity to see what it is like to work together before the big day.  This is a huge advantage as on your wedding day you know what to expect.  You will know my style of shooting and it therefore eliminates the ‘fear of the unknown’ of what your wedding photography experience will be like.  The last thing you want to be stressing out about on your wedding day is the photos.  I want the photos to be a FUN part of your wedding day and a fantastic overall experience.  If we have worked together before your wedding day you will get comfortable in front of the camera a lot faster, which in turn gives us more shooting time where you look natural and relaxed which helps us create awesome photos!

So as you can imagine I was thrilled when Alison and Derek told me they were interested in booking an e-session!  I am shooting their wedding this summer and judging by these first few photos these two are going to rock it out big time on their big day!  We chose the breakwater for their photo location as this is where Derek proposed.  We did humiliate him for fun by re-creating the proposal for a cheesy photo op.  And if you have been to the breakwater you know how busy it can get on a beautiful day … so needless to say he had some entertained spectators.  Thanks for being such great sports you guys!  I had so much fun and it just made me that much more excited for your wedding day!

Incredible photos of an incredible couple. Alison & Derek – good choice with the casual clothing – you look completely natural, utterly in love and beautiful too. I can’t pick just one favourite – I love #2, 4, 5 & 9. xoxo

Very nice couple, very nice work Kim I will certainly have to get back down on my knees again to my beautiful wife, “every picture tells a story.” Good luck to Alison & Derek.
