One of the first things an engaged couple do after those acceptance words are spoken, is to have engagement photos taken. These could be used to tell the world about their future plans together. One or the other of the couple may be from out of town, so these pics can also be used in their hometown paper as well.
A fantasy wedding is in the minds and hearts of many young girls throughout the world, but later on, when reality settles in, she realizes that no one is free from flaws, both physically or in character. This fact is accepted and time marches on.
As uncomfortable as it may be for one or the other of the couple, they realize that they must have a photo to insert into the local papers, both locally and in their hometowns. This fact makes it a better experience and they endure the time and the many poses it may take to achieve their objective of a suitable snapshot.
The one taking the pictures may ask for many different poses, and often will just snap pictures quickly, hoping to snare that elusive perfect picture. Doing this will also give the soon-to-be bride and groom an idea of what the wedding shoot will entail.
If the same photographer is used for both pre-marriage and wedding photographs, the first ones could be a time to build a rapport with the picture taker. When this person knows a little about the couple, the person may have more idea what they want to portray in their snaps. These black and whites in the newspaper may be the only way folks at a great distance might be able to see the future bride and groom.
If there ever would be a time when a side of one person is shown to the other that they have never seen, being in front of a camera for engagement photos may do the trick. Of course, this time can also be good practice for the upcoming wedding photos that will be taken as well. Once the entire fantasy-like marriage process is over, then real life can begin.
