Tammy and Jason – Langley Engagement Photography

The Couple

I’ve known Tammy for a few years now, and shot the Headshots for her Realtor business and was honoured when her and her fiancé Jason asked me to be part of their wedding, and I knew I wanted to do something a bit special for her and Jason’s engagement.

These guys are what you might call “horse people,” and with a gorgeous barn and property not far from Langley how could I not get them in the back field against a gorgeous BC sunset.  The timing was tricky, getting the sun just right, on a day without rain, but things all lined up beautifully for us.

Why Have An Engagement Session

Part of the reason that I love having an engagement session with a couple who’s wedding I’m photographing is that it gives me a chance to get to know them and get a feel for what they’re like in front of the camera.  Not everyone knows what to do when they get their photo taken.  Heck, I don’t know what to do!  Spending some time with a couple means that they can get used to how I pose them and how I get them to move around.  More importantly, I, as the photographer, get to see how you react for me.  Some people are more relaxed, some people need a bit more prompting.  I want to tailer how I work with a couple to that couple, and a couple of hours of an engagement session lets me do just that.

Luckily, a lot of the time “posing” is pretty easy.  I think for the above photo I said “kiss him!”  Pretty simple stuff 🙂

Like I said the horses are strong with this couple, so when the grey saw them kissing, he figured he ought to be involved, or at minimum get a scratch under the chin.  Make sure you view these full screen to see the full effect!

Tammy and Jason, you’re an awesome couple and I can’t wait to shoot the wedding in April!
