When Chrissy and Justin met with me for their initial wedding consultation in December, they knew they wanted their winter engagement photos in the midst of lots of snow. Since our winter in the city of Spokane has been pretty mild this season, I once again suggested that we make our way up to Mt. Spokane.
We met at my studio one early Sunday morning so Chrissy could have her makeup professionally applied by Evy with Makeup By Evelyn Mauro (which I highly recommend doing for any professional photo session!!). Chrissy was super flexible and told Evy to do whatever she thought Chrissy would look best for the photos. Evy did just that. An experienced professional makeup artist like Evy not only helps your skin look radiant and glowing for your engagement or wedding photos, but they help boost your confidence as well. Just try to get your makeup done by Evy and NOT feel like the most beautiful woman walking down the street…I dare you! Unless of course you are a bridesmaid on the wedding day, then don’t you dare act like the prettiest one there!
Chrissy let me know she was super nervous for our winter engagement session because she didn’t know what to expect. I let her know that is totally typical and we will work past it! It only took us five minutes to get her and Justin cuddling up, laughing together and playing around in the snow. I would have never guessed she was nervous if she hadn’t told me…we scored some BEAUTIFUL images that would not have been possible if she hadn’t relaxed and let me direct her.
For many young engaged couples, your engagement session is the first time you will have your photos professionally taken together. Which is why I offer a free engagement session in each of my wedding packages. I cannot express enough how beneficial it is to meet and work with your wedding photographer before your wedding day. Your wedding day is already packed with expectations and emotions, why add an extra level of uneasiness when we can overcome your unfamiliarity months before?
I can guarantee Chrissy and Justin are beyond pleased that we took the time to get to know each other and had fun during our engagement session, just ask them!! Now enjoy their awesome snowy engagement photos taken on Mt Spokane 🙂
