Engaged!

A new meaning to Engagement Photographs
Traditionally engagement photographs occur after the proposal to not only capture that time, but also as a test run for the potential wedding photographer to photograph the couple before the wedding. A relatively new trend has emerged in Canadian wedding photography, photographing the actual wedding proposal, although this type of photography now coined “engagerazzi” has been popular in the US and Austrailia for a few years and is now slowly catching on here. The idea behind this is to have paparazzi like photographs taken of the proposal, the photographer hides and takes shots as the proposal happens either revealing themselves at the end or having the photographs arrive a short time after surprising the bride to be. My first request came a few weeks back, Kris wanted to surprise his now fiancée Christine at the location where they first met, after numerous emails back and forth we devised a plan that captured the moment and most importantly the emotional response, including a few tears, from Christine.
