Engagement pre-wedding portraits

An engagement portrait session in a rural location is a great way to celebrate being engaged. For couples who book us for their wedding, we offer this session free and it is a great way of you getting to know how we work with you and our cameras so that you are really relaxed for the wedding day. We are very experienced portrait photographers, our approach is gentle, creative, intuitive and you will have fun!. You feel completely at ease and find the whole session fun.  

A portrait session is something you will never regret... We are very experienced portrait photographers, our approach is gentle, creative, intuitive and you will have fun!.   Keeping people feeling real and relaxed is the key to successful and happy portraits and it is something that we are good at. 

We took the decision in the Autumn of 2015 to take our portraiture outdoors, using the wonderful countryside we enjoy here on our doorstep - Frensham Ponds, Ludshott Common, the Devils Punchbowl. If you would prefer indoor shots we can bring our studio to you. In your own space, both children and adults alike often feel more calm and relaxed. Home is a special place and it is private. We have the option to shoot in low light too and so your portraits can be light and airy or moody and evocative depending on your preference.

In the Summer months, we are spoilt for choice with good light and often use natural features to shoot through or from and this gives great interest to the shots.  In Winter we again use the natural light and often suggest fluffy hats, coloured scarves or cosy fleeces to give the photos a warm feeling. 

A portrait session takes around an hour and we never book in sessions back to back and so there is plenty of time for you to relax and have time to talk and really enjoy the whole experience.  Please visit our FAQ page for more information.
