 I want to create imagery in moments that feel like you. With the utmost intention in everything I do, this experience should feel like yours. 

Pour a glass of wine and stay a while, won't you?

Kera Photography

Every engagement photo package usually comes with what seems a million amazing photos of you and your honey to be! But what to do with all of those smiles? To maximize the creativity and energy that went into them on both your part and your photographer, here are a few fun ways you and your guests can enjoy them!

1. CREATE A GUEST BOOK

Far too often do I attend weddings and see very generic guest books. Why not give your guests some flare and create a book with your engagement photos with room to write? This is a great way for those who don’t see the two of you as often to really get a feel for who you really are as a couple!

2. PRINT A LARGE CAVAS

This is an alternative I’ve seen few couples do. Print a large canvas with room to right on the sides in place of a guest book! At the end of the night, you will have a piece to hang in your home that means a lot to both of you.

3. BUILD A PHOTO WALL.

Dedicate a wall, rolling board or divider screen to displaying your photos. It can work as part of your reception decorations, and you might find another use for the wall, maybe as an alternative to your guest book. You can be playful and stick the photos any way you want, like on a bulletin board, or frame them and arrange them neatly. The wall can serve as something to entertain your guests while they wait for your grand entrance.

4. USE THEM AS BUNTINGS.

Instead of having regular streamers, photo buntings make great wedding decor. They’re festive and unique, and, if done with sepia or black and white pictures, can create a dramatic effect.

5. GIVE THEM AWAY!

With a little creativity, you may find ways to use your engagement photos as a way of personalizing your wedding favors. Have them printed out on sticker paper and put them on your giveaways. Not only will you be able to show off your prenup pictures, but you’ll also personalize your giveaways as well. You may also have the images printed as postcards, and use them as your thank-you notes after the wedding.
