If you’re a bride that is a little anxious about how your groom is going to react to this whole “picture” thing, you’re not alone.  I receive so many emails from brides who are worried that their groom won’t be into it and I have great news for you…. you both are more photogenic than you think!  I am constantly surprising couples by discovering their hidden modeling skills and the most common response from my Holly D Grooms are “That wasn’t as bad as I thought! It was actually fun.”.  Boom! Mission accomplished!  When the groom says that taking pictures was FUN, I have done my job well!  Your engagement session is supposed to be fun and relaxed and not forced or awkward.  As you prepare for your shoot, there are a few things that you can do to help your groom know what to expect.  First of all, I highly recommend sitting down with your guy and showing him 2-3 of your favorite engagement sessions that I have photographed.  Spend some time together scrolling through a few blog posts, this will allow him to gauge what his expectations should be.  I also recommend that you allow for plenty of time to get to your shoot! There is nothing worse than when a couple shows up late and they have been arguing in the car! That is definitely going to put your groom in a bad mood! Last but not least, remember to have patience with him and don’t assume that he’s not going to have a good time… I think you’ll be surprised how much you will both enjoy your session with me!
