We usually do the engagement photo shoot around four to six weeks before the wedding day. This is so we can chat about the day, but the main point is to get to know each other. - As it may have been more than 12 months since you have seen or been in contact with your photographer, it's a nice way to touch base. - Use the time to get full details about the timings of your wedding day. - Get to know your photographer as they would be following you all day, so it's very important that you get on. - It's very important to find out how your supplier works, as it will help everything flow better on the day.
