Why you should book an engagement session
Congratulations on your engagement! Now that you have the ring, you can begin wedding planning! As you’re wedding planning you may wonder if you should book an engagement session with your photographer.
Here are 3 reasons why you should book an engagement session:
1) Feel comfortable in front of the camera: An engagement session is a great way to get to know your photographer and feel comfortable being in front of the camera. This is great practice for the wedding day! During an engagement session, I coach my couples through posing and prompts to achieve flattering and beautiful photos! By your wedding date, you will be a pro in front of the camera!
2) Many uses for photos: Engagement photos have many uses! Most commonly, engaged couples use there engagement photos for “save the dates” and wedding invitations. Some couples also use their photos for a wedding day guest book, or personalized DIY wedding decor. There are endless options!
3) Variety in your photos: An engagement session is a great opportunity to have some causal photos as the wedding day may be more formal. Consider scheduling your engagement session in a different season then your wedding (for example, if your wedding will be in the fall, you can schedule your engagement session in the spring for a different look). When looking back at your wedding and engagement photos you will have variety in options for photos to use around your home.

Lincoln Memorial DC Engagement Session
After Surmeet’s surprise proposal at the bar they first met at in DC earlier in the week, we scheduled an engagement session at The Lincoln Memorial for additional photos! The Lincoln Memorial is one of my favorite monuments in DC for engagement photos! Plenty of options and spots to visit including the columns, the view from the columns, The Reflecting Pool, plus trees and grassy areas nearby! My favorite shot is where we started in between the columns with the iconic DC view of The Reflecting Pool, followed by the Washington Monument and Capitol Building. Consider an early morning sunrise session for the best time of day to go to avoid tourists! A sunrise session is also a great idea during the summer to avoid the heat!
Aside from engagement and other sessions, the Lincoln is also a popular spot for surprise proposals! If you’re interested in scheduling a session, reach out today to learn more! I’m happy to help you plan for your session.

Birmingham Morris Avenue Engagement Session
Originally Clay had planned to propose to his girlfriend on a trip to Washington DC during the Cherry Blossoms. The Cherry Blossom festival attracts a lot of tourist and couples that love to plan their surprise proposal or engagement session around the peak bloom. Due to Covid-19 they had to cancel their trip to DC. Clay had decided to propose in private during the stay at home orders. To accommodate my client I was able to use my network to connect with a local photographer in Birmingham, Alabama to photograph this session and I handled the editing of the images. Thank you to Olivia for being my associate photographer for this session!
Morris Avenue was the perfect location for this Downtown Birmingham engagement session! It’s the perfect backdrop with endless options for photos. Scroll to view more from this session:

Washington DC Meridian Hill Park Engagement Session
Meridian Hill Park is a popular engagement session and surprise proposal location in Washington DC! I’ve photographed several sessions here including stopping here for wedding portraits! The park is located near 16th and W street NW and there is residential parking around! The highlight of Meridian Hill Park is the steps and the thirteen basin cascading fountain that is the longest in North America. There is plenty of greenery and a few statues as well. The park can also be relatively quite as its away from the memorials and other top DC tourist attractions.

Washington DC Reflecting Pool Surprise Proposal & Engagement Session
The Reflecting Pool is an iconic spot for a surprise proposal with a DC view! The steps of The Lincoln Memorial can be crowded at times with tourist so by proposing in front of The Reflecting Pool you get a similar view of The Washington Monument without tourist behind you since no one will be in the water! If you propose off to the side slightly you can also get a view of The Capital Building peeking out from behind the monument. If you’re more centered The Washington Monument would hide The Capital. After the proposal you can get some great shots with The Lincoln behind you. During Cherry Blossom peak bloom you can also walk a little bit to get some shots with the trees! Lots of options within a small walking distance. Get in touch to learn more about planning a surprise proposal in the Washington DC area!
