Mr. Candy Corn and I have been engaged for nearly four years (on September 1st) and I’ve just started wondering, why haven’t we ever done engagement photos? I guess I figured since I have hundreds of photos of us, we didn’t really need any more. However, my snapshots aren’t exactly wall-hanging material and I really wish we had some photos of us where one of us isn’t making a crazy face or getting into some sort of trouble (see example below):

Since our wedding is less than two months away and I’m well, for a lack of a better term, unemployed, we definitely can’t afford to sign up for a last-minute engagement photography session. I’d really love to have photos of us in our everyday wear and goofing around, being romantic. Am I the only one out there who realized a little too late the importance of engagement photography? After the wedding I’ll have to set aside some money for “newlywed photos.” I had no idea I would get a strong urge to take cutesy shots of Mr. Candy Corn piggybacking me through Philadelphia, but it has happened and there’s no denying it now!Here are some pictures that made me realize what all the hubbub is about engagement photos (yes, I actually used the word “hubbub”…you know you love it):
Despite my piggyback infatuation, I love the moodier, uber-artistic shots just as much.
This is a precious moment if I ever saw one.

I have a feeling I would be a lot like this bride-to-be, hiding behind Mr. Candy Corn’s shoulder.

I can’t explain my fascination with piggyback photos, but I find them to be so damn adorable!!
Can’t. Resist. Piggyback. Cuteness.
Did anyone else realize the importance of engagement photos a little late in the game??
