Your engagement session with Jackie Siggard Photo + Video | Utah Wedding Photographer

Now that you have picked a date, a photographer and probably a venue as well, you can celebrate! Those are some of the toughest decisions in wedding planning and you can cross them off your list! Hooray!! Now on to the fun stuff…. like your engagement session! I include engagement sessions in The Wedding Experience because I truly believe that they are a VITAL part of the entire process.  During your engagement session, you’ll have the chance to get to know me, experience how I shoot and how I handle posing and lighting.  This session will make a HUGE impact on how the wedding day flows.  I’ll arrive on your wedding day already knowing how you two interact, what your best poses are and how to photograph you in a genuine way! What I will learn about you during your engagement session is invaluable! You will feel like such a pro on your big day because of the great practice you had during your engagement session, and  that’s how it should be!  

Your engagement session can be scheduled anytime before your wedding day. I normally suggest booking it at least 3-6 months in advance to avoid stress.  Because our weekends are filled with weddings, I shoot engagements on weekday evenings, normally from 6-7pm depending on the light and the time of the year. In the winter months, 4-5pm is a normal time frame for an e-shoot!  As you start to plan for your engagement shoot, you will need to start brainstorming about location ideas.  I can help you decide on a location, I have several places but if you want a certain location, please let me know!  As long as the light is great, I can make ANY location look awesome! I shoot at farms, campuses, downtown alleys! I’m serious! Do not shy away from crazy ideas!  The more creative, the better!
