To Be Engaged.

Being engaged is one of the most exciting times in your life. I remember it very well. It starts with a romantic proposal...then you have your new bling to show off! Then the whirlwind of wedding planning starts. And of course the best part....the anticipation of marrying your best friend and the man of your dreams! I absolutely LOVED being engaged...of course I LOVE being married more...but I will never forget the amazing time it was. I had a long engagement (a year)...and I really enjoyed every moment of it. It gave me plenty of time to plan...which I also LOVED to do...and plenty of time for the anticipation to build before my big day.

Being the unique, amazing time in life that it is...how can you not document it!? This is where the photographer in me comes out, haha! Of course I am biased...but I feel it is sooooo important to capture this special time in your life. For one, it's probably some of the only "casual" professional photos you will have of you and your sweetie :) Other then my maternity photos...our engagement photos are the only professional photos I have of my hubby and I...and I am SO thankful for them! I have them happily displayed all over our house :) Two, they are great to use for your save the dates...or to display around your reception & house.  Like I said, I have many of them framed around my house...and I love seeing them and remembering that amazing time in life...and laughing at how as the years go by...how young we looked!!! Okay, I'm only going on 5years of marriage...but we sure have changed a lot since then!

And THREE...the most important reason of all to get your engagement photos done, haha...okay...it's not the MOST important reason...but it is a good one. Shooting your engagement photos with yours truly, allows us to get to know each other better. Over the course of your engagement we really will only meet one or two times...the initial booking meeting and then a few weeks before the big day to chat about wedding day details. This gives us the chance to see each other one more time and get to know each other a little more! It also, allows you to see how I work and get comfortable with me and my shooting style. This is super important! You being comfortable is how you get the natural, relax, candid, fun photos that you are wanting when you hire Katelyn Owens Photography! Having your engagement photos done allows you to feel experienced and comfortable when shooting your wedding photos...which makes for AMAZING photos!!!
