Put simply, its an hour+ worth of fun with your chosen Cardiff Wedding Photographer at a destination of your choice. They are so much fun to capture and are in fact one of our most favourite shoots to be a part of with so much creative freedom to capture some truly breathtaking Cardiff engagement photos. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\" id=\"what-is-the-point-of-having-an-engagement-shoot\">What is the point of having an engagement shoot?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Engagement photoshoots remove any fears of you feeling &#8216;Awkward&#8217; in front of the camera. We hear far too often  during our consultations that couples <strong>feel awkward whilst having their photos taken<\/strong> or even <strong>hate having their photos taken.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Being an experienced Cardiff Wedding Photographer we are able to remove these fears during an engagement shoot by highlighting to them that the best kind of photos are when the couple are just being them. No awkward posing or massive lighting setups, just raw emotion shared between you and your partner. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/oliverreesphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/South-Wales-Wedding-Photographer070.jpg\" alt=\"St Fagans engagement photoshoot\" class=\"wp-image-12006\" srcset=\"https:\/\/oliverreesphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/South-Wales-Wedding-Photographer070.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/oliverreesphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/South-Wales-Wedding-Photographer070-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/oliverreesphotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/South-Wales-Wedding-Photographer070-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\" id=\"do-you-really-need-an-engagement-photoshoot\">Do you really need an engagement photoshoot?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>No!
