Yes! There are so many reasons why we think every couple should do engagement photos! First of all, you just got engaged and are smitten with each other and so genuinely happy and excited.. as you should be! This is the perfect time to have nice photographs taken of the two of you. When you decorate your home, it will be nice to have other photos hung up, rather than just from your wedding day - the variety looks really great!
You can use these photos for quite a few things as decorations or invitations for your wedding day, too. Save the dates, invitations, photobook as a guest book, a large matted frame where your guests can sign as a guest book, or a statement piece as a decoration over a mantel at your wedding reception.
Also! What a great thing to have your wedding photographer take photos of you and your fiancé BEFORE your wedding. It gives you a chance to really get to know each other. You'll get to see your photographer in action, and it gives your photographer the chance to experiment. What are your best angles? Which poses work best with the two of you? How will your photographer feed off of your personalities to get the most genuine laughs or smiles out of you? On that note...they will also understand if there is anything you did NOT love about your engagement photos so they will be extra prepared on your wedding day.
