An engagement shoot is a great way to become comfortable with your wedding photographer and the perfect opportunity to get some fun, relaxed shots that truly reflect you as a couple.

Marine scientist and ad man, Pia and Benji, opted for a modern engagement shoot around the streets of Hobart, with Tassie’s finest photography duo, Fred & Hannah. The couple share a love of street art, so an urban shoot with a graffiti backdrop was a natural choice.

Rapt with the results, Pia tells me the pics reflect the two of them perfectly. “I go all mushy on the inside when I think about the gorgeous shots the wonderful Fred and Hannah captured and feel 100% more confident about being photographed on the big day.”

Pia and Benji are planning a woodland-inspired wedding at the Hobart Waterside Pavilion. For the reception, a mystery catamaran trip will be whisking guests off to an undisclosed location, but I’m told it’s amongst apple orchards and nestled between majestic mountains. Sounds magic!
