One of the very first things to do in the wedding planning process is to get your engagement photos taken and announce the exciting news with families and friends! Other than finding a trusted photographer and the perfect photoshoot location, the type of poses you choose will also set the mood and tone for your pictures.  Most of us are not professional models, so posing in front of the camera might be a challenge we need to overcome.  Before you get ready for that epic kiss (which may feel a little awkward at first), try some of these cute poses to get yourselves comfortable and relaxed, to feel like you’re actually on a casual date. Get inspired to show your love!
