Top Engagement Photographer related questions

Preparing for your engagement photography session can start even before you hire engagement photographers. To start, visualise the story you want the photos to tell. This step includes mapping out the locations you want to shoot at, your outfits, hair and makeup, and any props or pets you wish to include. Lastly, allow enough time in the schedule to accommodate bad weather or to make most out of natural lighting.
The answers depend on your joint vision for the shoot, but here are some general guidelines you can follow: 
  • Have a colour scheme. This doesn’t mean sticking to 1 - 2 colours or wearing matched outfits - choose complementary colours and solid prints.
  • Wear clothes that look and feel like you, including style, colour, and fit.
  • Choose pastels, cool colours, and neutral tones. Avoid anything that will distract from your faces.

These usually take 1 - 3 hours, depending on the kind of package you book and the number of prints you want. Photographers typically want to maximise the two hours before sunset, known as the “golden hour” in photography, so it’s best to clear out your schedule for the whole afternoon to make the most of your session. Kindly coordinate with your Tasker if you are running late for an appointment before or after the planned shoot.

You can do this easily by booking photographers on Airtasker. When you post a task, we connect you to dozens of reviewed and rated engagement and wedding photographers near you. You can book an appointment in minutes! You can also find photographers who can handle eventportrait, or couple photography. 

What do engagement photography services include?

Airtasker’s engagement photography service usually includes a timed session, a set number of locations and outfits, post-processing, editing, and the final output (prints or files). Photographers typically meet their clients before the shoot to discuss the concept or theme as well. 

Here’s what you can expect when you hire an engagement photographer on Airtasker:

 

Pre-wedding shoot

Engagement photographers typically package according to the number of shooting hours and the number of final photos. This can be as short as 30 minutes or as long as 3 hours. Your photographer usually takes both candid and posed shots of you and your loved one, depending on the theme or concept for your shoot. 

 

While photographers prefer to shoot during the daytime to make the most of natural light, this may vary depending on your location and concept. Kindly discuss with your photographer beforehand to determine the best time for your photo shoot. To be on the safe side, block out the whole morning or afternoon to make room for travel time, outfit changes, or multiple locations.

 

Multiple outfits and location planning

Engagement and wedding photography concepts sometimes involve several outfits and venues. This service can help tell your story as a couple, such as a school you both went to or the park where you proposed. You can even add a studio shoot on top of these location shoots. Your engagement photographer will be happy to discuss these details with you and help you achieve your desired concept. Do note that these changes may result in an extended session and affect the quotes you will receive. 

 

Photo editing and retouching

After the shoot, your engagement photographer proceeds to edit or retouch your photos. The package usually includes fixing blemishes, converting photos to black and white, or achieving the look and feel that you want. If you’re looking for Taskers who specialise in photo manipulation, you can click the link and book the service.

 

Delivery of final prints or files

Once your photos are edited, you’ll receive the final images. Though the process may vary from Tasker to Tasker, you can ask for a digital album as well as printed photographs. At this stage, you’ll want to ask the photographer for files that can be used for your save the date cards, teaser video, and other related materials. You may even decide to get the same photographer for your actual wedding to achieve a consistent look. Or, you can check out the different kinds of wedding photography services here on Airtasker.

My fiancé and I got engaged in October last year and are looking to capture some photos to celebrate. We are very outdoorsy people and love your candid, natural style. We’re looking for a session that feels relaxed and captures our connection. We would love to shoot at the Royal Botanic Gardens in Melbourne on Tuesday, February 17th. This location is incredibly special to us because it’s where we had our first dance, so we’re really hoping to make it work there. Our total budget for the session is $200, do you offer any packages for engagement shoots? Since the Gardens require a permit for professional photography, does your fee typically include that? What time of day do you recommend for the best lighting in the Gardens during February? Also, do you have any recommendations for dress colors that photograph well against the greenery there (I am tossing up between blush or ivory but also must check against my skin tone (fair) so I don't look washed out)?
