As mentioned earlier, pre-wedding is very much similar to the engagement session except, you will be wearing your wedding gown and wedding tuxedo during the photoshoot and these pictures are more fine art and elegant, you can also take these pictures anywhere you want, not just in Montreal but anywhere in the world (E.g., Iceland, Italy, Paris, Santorini, New York, Prague and so much more beautiful places!!). These sessions can last anywhere from a three hours photo shoot to a multi-day marathon involving rented cars and airplanes, wardrobe changes, prop weapons, and stunning make up! They truly are an experience. Think about pre-wedding photoshoot as doing your first look on another day before your actual wedding day. The pre-wedding session is definitely something bigger, something bolder, something mind-blowingly fun! Sure, you might think we can always do a day after or trash the dress session but the mindset is different, whether we want to admit it or not, once the wedding is over,
The wedding excitement slowly tapers off. Just ask yourself, would you want the standard “engagement session/everyday session” photo instead of some mind-blowing fine art pre-wedding photos?
