Couples photoshoot sessions

Let’s talk about couples photoshoot sessions. They are a very different dynamic to a normal glamour, portrait or boudoir session. Usually with a couples photoshoot session, there is a hand imprint in the back of one of the couple. Sometimes they will be here because both of them really want a session but more often it is because one person wants the session and has had to convince the other to come along. That is equally divided between men and women.

It is not always the woman who wants the session. Equally, the male half will want to do the session and will push his other half to come along. In the end they will always end up on the same page though, glad they came to us for a session and loving their photographs.

A TYPICAL COUPLES PHOTOGRAPHY SESSION WILL RUN FOR AROUND 2 HOURS. WE WILL START PHOTOGRAPHING THE WOMAN FIRST ON HER OWN TO ALLOW HER TO RELAX INTO THE SESSION.

It is interesting to see how different men and women are with their ideas on photographs. When I ask the woman to show me images that she likes as reference for herself, they will mostly be discrete and with a soft feel. When I ask the man for his ideas, they will almost always be sexier and more overt. During the session we will usually cover both styles so that both achieve what they want from the session.

A typical couples photography session will run for around 2 hours. We will start photographing the woman first on her own to allow her to relax into the session. We will then photograph the man for a few special images which will usually be a cool headshot and any sexy images that his wife/girlfriend may have requested. Once both are relaxed and settled we will start on the couples images.
