Pre-Wedding and Engagement Photo Sharing: Deliver Couple Shoots Beautifully

Pre-wedding and engagement shoots are where the couple's story begins visually. These intimate sessions produce some of the most beautiful, personal photos in a photographer's portfolio. How you deliver these photos sets the tone for the entire client relationship — and can generate significant additional business.

Why Delivery Matters for Pre-Wedding Shoots

• First impression: This is often the couple's first experience receiving photos from you. A beautiful delivery builds trust for the wedding day.
• Social sharing: Couples share pre-wedding photos on Instagram, Facebook, and WhatsApp. Your delivery method determines whether your branding travels with those shares.
• Save-the-date content: Couples use pre-wedding photos for save-the-date cards, wedding websites, and invitations.
• Referral trigger: When friends see the couple's pre-wedding gallery, they ask "who is your photographer?"

Delivering Through Branded Galleries

Instead of sending a Google Drive link, deliver through a branded Kamero gallery:

• Your photography logo on the gallery page.
• The couple's names and shoot date as the gallery title.
• Your brand colors in the gallery theme.
• A "Book this photographer" link visible to anyone who views the gallery.
• Original quality downloads — no compression, no quality loss.

The Couple's Experience

1. You send the couple a beautiful gallery link: "Your pre-wedding photos are ready."
2. They open a branded gallery with their names and your logo.
3. They browse, favorite, and download their photos in original quality.
4. They share the gallery link with family and friends.
5. Everyone who views the gallery sees your branding and booking link.

Social Sharing Optimization

• Enable one-tap sharing to Instagram, WhatsApp, and Facebook from the gallery.
• Photos shared from the gallery carry your branding metadata.
• Encourage the couple to tag you when sharing: "Tag us @yourhandle for a chance to be featured."
• Repost the couple's shares on your own social media (with permission).

Upselling from Pre-Wedding to Wedding

• The pre-wedding gallery is your best sales tool for the wedding package.
• Include a "Book your wedding coverage" CTA in the gallery.
• Offer a package deal: "Pre-wedding + wedding coverage at a special rate."
• Use the pre-wedding gallery as a portfolio piece when pitching to the couple's friends.

Selling Pre-Wedding Photos

Some photographers offer pre-wedding photo sales as an additional revenue stream:

• Deliver a curated set of 30-50 edited photos as part of the package.
• Offer the remaining photos (100-200 unedited) as a paid add-on via Sell Photos.
• Price the add-on at ₹2,000-₹5,000 for "all remaining photos."
• Couples who love the curated set often want the complete collection.

Privacy for Intimate Shoots

• PIN-protect the gallery — only the couple and people they share the PIN with can access it.
• Disable public indexing — the gallery should not appear in search engines.
• Give the couple control over downloads — they decide who can download original files.
• Respect the couple's wishes about which photos can be used in your portfolio.
