Unique Engagement Photo

Engagement photos have become a staple in wedding photography. They’re used to add personal touches to bridal showers, and to the wedding itself. It’s a great way to capture some special moments of the bride and groom before their big day, in a casual fun way. Unfortunately, engagement photos have also become very predictable. The “spontaneous” poses have become rehearsed and all the engagement photos I’ve seen now look all the same. To create an engagement photo with a new twist, try this.

Have an engagement photo taken as you normally would. Then collect as many photographs as you can of your family, friends, and of yourselves and the special moments that you’ve shared, old and new. This can be quite a fun project to do. It’s a great excuse to bring along your camera to every occasion and become the designated photographer. The more pictures you have, the better. Once you’ve done that, use the Foto-Mosaik program. This program allows you to choose a photo you want (your engagement photo), and have it rebuilt using smaller photos (these are the pics that you’ve gathered). I guarantee that it will be a showstopper at any wedding. For added effect, have your photo framed and displayed with an engraved caption to read, “Because you are a part of us”. Your guests will have a great time trying to find themselves in your photo. It’s a great way to add a new twist on the engagement photo.
