    Skipping - it was an added cost with our photographer and something that neither of us really cared about, we have tons of pictures of us together anyway!

    Skipping. We're just not that kind of couple. Plus its another added expense.

    Keep! The shoot was a great way to bond with our photographer and to figure out how to relax in front of the camera in preparation for the big day!

    We kept it only because it was a complimentary add-in with our photographer. If it had been an extra cost, we would have skipped.

    Keep! We've never done a photoshop before so it was really fun to plan. Also, you get an idea of how to pose and feel comfortable in front of the camera. It also helps build your relationship with the photographer and you get a sense of how they work and if you like their style, direction etc.

    I'm for it but my FH doesn't like photos to begin with I'm hoping he will come around to the idea though. Pictures last forever.

    We did engagement pictures. They turned out amazing and we will be using some at our wedding. Engagement shoots are a great way to get comfortable with your photographer and to practise what poses work best for you both.

    We did engagement photos! I am so happy we did, because it made us a bit more aware and prepared for how the day of the wedding will be, and we became more comfortable with getting photos taken and we built a relationship with the photographer!
