As the sun dipped down at Burgess Beach, we had the perfect afternoon for engagement photography in Forster.This gorgeous couple celebrated their engagement with a photo session at the beach. Engagement photography in Forster at the beach is a relaxed, fun hour of your life where we wander around the rocks and the sand, finding beautiful pockets of nature with lovely light for you to get cuddly amongst, so I can capture you together as the beautiful moments happen.

I think it’s such a great idea to capture this time in your relationship, before all those photos in the white dress on the big day. It’s such a great chance to get relaxed in front of my camera, and see how things unfold naturally, without too much posing. It’s reassuring to know that you will enjoy your wedding photos down the track, when all that planning eventuates into the wedding day… finally!

Engagement Photography in Forster

Such a joy to hang out with these two, and I hope you enjoy the photos I’ve shared below. Some of my favourites from the photo session.

I met up with Amy and Matt last week for an Engagement Photography Session. A beautiful spring morning, besides a fairly strong breeze- which we managed pretty well! We were perched on top of the sand dunes at One Mile Beach in Forster. This location was magical in the morning light, and the blues of the sea were oh so blue… I couldn’t help but think this spot would be perfectly romantic for an engagement shoot, looking out across the water from the cliff top.

It was great to catch up with Amy and Matt, hear about their latest wedding plans and get to know them some more. Such a lovely couple who have been so warm and genuine since we first connected near the beginning of the year. It’s exciting to see their wedding day in November now fast approaching!

Engagement Photography Sessions

Engagement shoots are such a great way to get to know me, and to get comfortable in front of the camera. It puts couples at ease to have experienced a photo shoot with me before their wedding- to see how I work, how the shoot flows, so that they can relax and get familiar with it. It’s nice to know what to expect when it comes to location photos for your wedding day. I think the fellas always breathe a sigh of relief once they realise that it’s not that bad after all- giving them confidence that they can survive their wedding photos!

An engagement photography session is a nice way to mark your time as a couple before you tie the knot- and to get some lovely but more casual photos of you together. It also gives you the chance to choose a location that is different to where you will visit on your wedding day, but might mean something to you as a couple.
