Let’s Book your engagement shoot!

Great decision, my friends!
An engagement shoot is designed entirely with your comfort in mind. With no pressure and no on-lookers, it’s the perfect thing to help you overcome any camera-shy nerves before your big day.
During your shoot we’ll spend a relaxed hour walking, talking and getting ot know each other better while I snap away with my camera. I’ll gently guide you into natural-looking poses, but also invite you to focus on each other. By doing that, you’ll soon forget I even exist, and happily just do your own thing – mess about, make each other laugh, pull silly faces, and sneak a quick kiss!
So by the time your big day comes around, you’ll be totally at ease. In fact, you won’t think about having your picture taken at all, but just about enjoying every moment of marrying your best friend.
And the result?
Lots of beautiful, happy and relaxed photos!

WHAT CLIENT’S SAY

“Lorna has been fantastic to work with. It was our first photoshoot and we were a bit nervous about it, but Lorna’s approach and personality helped us forget these nerves before we even started shooting. We’re excited for the wedding photographs now!”
SOFIA & LEE

“Lorna made the whole experience so easy and relaxed. She was so welcoming and professional. I don’t really like my photo being taken, yet it felt like we were just meeting a friend for a day out. I cannot recommend Lorna enough!”
KIM & GEMMA

“Lorna helped guide us with our various ‘poses’ but kept everything feeling very natural and relaxed. We both felt very at ease and even found that we were having fun! We really appreciate how we both really just look like ourselves rather than made up or over-posed.”
LAURA & JAY

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
These are the questions I’m most often asked, but if you think of anything else, please drop me an email or give me a bell on 07871 275 179.
WE'RE SUPER AWKWARD IN FRONT OF THE CAMERA. WILL THAT BE OK?
Yes! Please know that I do not expect you to be models. My job is to direct you in a way that helps you relax, feel natural, and be your true comfortable selves in front of my lens. You do not need to practice poses, study Pinterest pins or let the nerves take over. It often takes around 10 mins to get into it, but by the end of the session you’ll feel like it’s just been an enjoyable walk in the park, and any camera nerves will soon float away!
HOW FAR IN ADVANCE OF OUR WEDDING SHOULD WE BOOK OUR ENGAGEMENT SHOOT?
It’s totally up to you. You can have an engagement shoot as soon as you’re engaged or at any point in the run-up to your wedding. I would advise however that you have it no later than 3-4 months before your wedding, just so I definitely have time to edit your images and for you to see them ahead of your big day.
I usually release dates 60 days ahead of time, but if you’d like to book further ahead than that, please email me to find out my availability.
HOW DO WE BOOK?
Easy! Simply look through my calendar below to find a date that works for you. Once I’ve received your booking request, I’ll pop you over an invoice for £300. Once you’ve paid, you’re all booked in!
I usually release dates 60 days ahead of time, but if you’d like to book further ahead than that, please email me to find out my availability.
WHAT HAPPENS IF RAIN IS FORECAST ON THE DAY OF THE SHOOT?
If the weather looks like it’ll be awful, rescheduling to another day is of course possible. However, as the weather is so unpredictable (and there is no guarantee the new date will be any better!) I recommend making the best of what we have. (I’ve done some really cute sessions in the rain with umbrellas!)
WHAT SHOULD WE WEAR?
Block/solid colours ideally without any patterns or logos that distract from your smiling faces are typically best. But if that’s not your style, no worries! The most important thing is to wear something you love, that is comfortable and makes you feel great!
Because there may be a bit of walking, do think about your shoes carefully. And if you’d prefer, feel free to bring an extra pair of shoes with you that you can slip in and out of while we walk so that you’re comfortable. This way, we can walk fast and maximize our shooting time.
HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE TO GET OUR PHOTOS?
Whilst I hate keeping people waiting (and I know how keen you will be to see your engagement photos!) I truly believe that quality is more important than speed, so it can take anything up to 4 weeks for delivery of your photos, especially during the busy summer months. But I will always get them to you as soon as I can.

I can’t wait to get your engagement shoot booked in my calendar!
