Engagement sessions are such a huge part of what we do at McLellan Studio. We love having that time to get to know our couples and we truly believe that it makes an incredible difference in the wedding photography. Just having the opportunity to learn each other – us seeing what our clients respond well to and them seeing that being photographed doesn’t have to be a stiff tedious ordeal – you can see how the wedding day goes so much more smoothly because of this! I realized that we’ve not featured an engagement session in a good long while and since that category is currently blank on the new blog, check out a few from Jessica and Ronnie’s session!

They got this one as a 6 square foot gallery wrap canvas print for their living room and it looks amazing!

This one is a 20×30 metallic gallery print in their bedroom. The metallic really makes this image pop – love it!

These were all part of their fine art engagement album, which doubled as a guest signing book. These are a huge hit with our couples and their guests! These books are such a wonderful documentary of your time of engagement. Guests love looking through it on the wedding day and our couples love that it becomes a special memento of both their engagement and well wishes from loved ones. Plus it’s soooo pretty! :)

We were so sad when we had to send Audrey word that we had become booked for her wedding date! She and Ben are so much fun so we were excited to be able to take part in their wedding experience by doing an engagement session for them! They joked around and laughed the entire session and I think we must have looked a little longingly at this tree because Audrey immediately offered to climbed out onto it. :) Whitney, you are going to have the best time with them on their wedding day!

You guys are such rockstars and you made our job so easy! :) Thanks and see you soon!

Lissa and David are such a fun, laid back couple! We met up with them at Edwin Warner Park on Monday for their engagement session. We knew right away that we would like them when we started the session off by telling them to relax and have fun and they then proceeded to sit there swapping dirty jokes – hilarious! Works for me! :) They also voluntarily got soaking wet in the creek and come on – it’s no secret – we love that! Let it never be said that being adventurous is not rewarded at McLellan Studio! I love both of these so I had to share two from their fantastic session!
