How did you choose the shoot location?
It was the woods we got engaged in, it’s behind our house and it’s very pretty!
How did you meet and how long have you been together?
We met in December 2015, through Tinder. We became ‘official’ on 14.02.2016. Our wedding day will be our 5 year anniversary.
Tell us your proposal story...
No story really, I had been hinting/nagging for a while. We went for a walk and he popped the question.
What has been your favourite part of wedding planning so far?
DIY and choosing the venue.
What is your favourite photo from the shoot?
I don’t have one, she’s captured so many lovely images! I’m happy we re-created ‘the’ engagement shot though, as we didn’t have any nice pictures from the time.
Did you feel nervous behind the camera?
To begin with an in the build up to the shoot I was getting anxious and contemplated not going ahead with it, but my want for cute pictures was stronger!
Did you find the shoot helpful for helping you feel more prepared for the wedding day?
Yes, my other half does modelling on the side, so he is confident in front of the camera, whereas I am very awkward, and toward the end of the shoot I was much more at ease, this was down to Veronica’s kind nature also.
Would you recommend that other couples have an engagement shoot?
I wouldn’t say it is necessary, and I’m not sure we would have done one if we had to pay for it. But it certainly helped with my nervousness and its lovely to have professional images to remember the occasion.
Did your photographer give you any tips before the shoot?
Yes, she was very helpful in helping us pick clothing, the location, the style of image and even sent us some articles on posing.
What advice would you give to other couples who do plan to have a pre-wedding shoot?
Don’t overthink it, just be natural with your partner.
What are you most looking forward to about the wedding date?
All of it!
