When an engagement shoot brings this much joy, you just know their wedding is going to be all kinds of incredible. Sofia and TJ, who met at a house party and then found each other online afterwards (truth time: it was TJ who did the stalking!) are both musicians and are actually getting married TODAY!

Like many of you reading this, Denver-based photographer Ashley and her fiance Jonathan have been forced to postpone their wedding due to the CONVID-19 pandemic.

You also have to look at your wedding band every day, so making sure your rings are personal and authentically you is super important for even the most non-traditional couples.

If you're reading this, the likelihood is that you don't want your wedding to be super traditional. Maybe you're wearing a coloured gown, sashaying down the aisle to your favourite metal song or putting skulls on the tables instead of flowers. All of these things, and many more, are really fun yet fleeting ways to showcase your individuality. After all, once the wedding itself if over they won't exist in your everyday life.

Molly and Christopher's engagement shoot is just about PERFECT for today's post, what with it being International Star Wars day and all. The couple made the costumes themselves! "We are both huge geeks who go to a lot of conventions", she said," so it was easy for us to find pieces we already owned to channel some Sith realness."

Lindsey and Kyle's engagement shoot is on a whole next level of CUTE. Kat first saw this in the Rock n Roll Bride Facebook group (which you can join here) and fell in love with them and their approach to wedding planning, as exemplified by this tropical-inspired photo shoot.

Engagement shoots are a great way for you and your photographer to get used to each other on a more relaxed occasion than the wedding day, and for you to really get comfortable being photographed by a professional.  And when you approach your shoot with extra thought about what you might wear and where you might go (pro-tip choose somewhere that speaks volumes about you as a couple) you'll end up with stunning portraits that will be intimate and meaningful as well as beautiful keepsakes.

I must preface this feature by letting you all know that this is an explicit photo session, and one that not everyone will be comfortable looking at. But in the spirit of Rock n Roll Bride being about self-expression and doing whatever is right for you and your partner, I really wanted to share it! There are a lot of NSFW photos featured below and while I personally think they're really tastefully done and the story behind them is one worth sharing, I understand that not everyone will agree.

It's very rare that we feature engagement shoots on Rock n Roll Bride anymore, there are just too many awesome real weddings to share instead! However when Kelsey and Gavin's Sin City inspired engagement shoot landed in my inbox, I knew it had to be published. I have a feeling you're going to LOVE this too!

Ash and Nick are both actors who have also had experience in designing, directing and film editing. They knew they wanted to do something funny and creative for their engagement shoot, rather than the standard cheesy hug-each-other-and-smile-in-a-dreamy-field kind of pictures. Massive horror and Halloween fans too, the idea of recreating some of their favourite TV and movie scenes fell into place after that!

Nikki and Mark wanted their engagement shoot to be intimate, sensual and artistic so decided to strip off and use it to connect back to the core of who they both are.

When I first saw Jody and Shane's engagement shoot (the bride shared some shots in the Rock n Roll Bride Facebook group!) I almost let out an involuntary squeak. I'm sorry but how friggin' gorgeous are this pair!? If you're considering not bothering with an engagement session, I kinda feel these might start to change your mind a little bit...
