If you are lovers of the ocean and enjoy nautical adventures, hop on a boat and sail off to paradise as your photographer gets some great creative shots. Romance at sea adds a splash of playful intimacy. Plus, your photographer can leave the two of you to spend time on your own as they capture shots like this from afar, successfully documenting candid moments when you’re not too focused on posing for the camera.

A carnival or theme park is probably a nostalgic and classic location, especially for high school sweethearts. And we don’t think there is anything cliche about it. A trip to a carnival or another place where you had your first date is a fun idea for your engagement photo session where you can relive your teen days and embrace your playful side. This creative angle perfectly captures the couple’s young love that shows off their fun and adventuresome nature.
Pre-wedding shoots allow you to have fun with props and fashion so you can express yourself in the best way possible. From smoke bombs and accessories to seasonal themes and laid-back setups, you can do a lot while collaborating with your photographer. You can highlight your favorite hobbies and channel your most authentic self in different ways, and experiment with multiple unique angles, close-ups, or from afar (drone shots are pretty cool). So now that we’ve convinced and got you excited about having a pre-wedding shoot, what are you waiting for?
