  • 20 Pre-Wedding Shoot Inspirations for the Just-Engaged Couple

    20 Pre-Wedding Shoot Inspirations for the Just-Engaged Couple

    Your pre-wedding/engagement pictures are the first glimpse people get of you and your baby as two individuals who have decided to become one. We know how important it is, so here are some inspirations for you.

    The one that’ll make everyone blush

    How would everyone know you and your boo go together like rice and stew, beans and garri, noodles and bread, if you don’t get up close and personal in your pre-wedding pictures? Show this picture to your photographer and make sure you and your lover’s chemistry jumps out for all to see

    The reflection

    After all the time you’ve spent with your baby, you most likely move like twins. This picture would show everyone that you and your baby are one, and if they see the LOYL, they’ve seen you.

    Aura for aura

    If you’re sure beyond all reasonable doubt that you and your partner are the coolest people on earth, this is for you. You’d freeze your steeze in time so all the generations after you can bear witness.

    Your baby is the ruler of your heart, and it’s only fair that everyone sees it.

    You and I

    It’s you and the LOYL forever, and there’s no better way to show it than with this picture.

    Adore

    What better way to show the world that your lover worships the ground you walk on than this picture with them looking at you like you hung the stars and the moon?

    No matter what life throws at you, it’s you and your baby, and you’ll stand with each other forever.

    You make me happy

    Your partner brings joy into your life, and what better way to show it than with a picture of you all smiles?

    No face, no case

    If you don’t want to show everyone and their daddy your baby’s face, then this is the one for you.

    Silhouettes

    You and your baby can look at each other, at the ring, or even at the sunset. You and the samosa in your small chops pack can do anything as long as your photographer knows he’s capturing your silhouettes and the essence of your love.

    Doing life with your partner is a journey and there’s no better way to show that than with this shoot that’ll tell your story.

    Serving face

    If you and your partner really think about it, you don’t need money, your face cards are enough payment for anything you need, so you better show it off.

    Glam

    Are you really in love if you haven’t shown everyone how stupendously good you and your sugar plum look together? Bonus points if you can do it in full glam, and we know you can.

    Breaking news

    Why tell everyone personally that you’re heading to the altar with the apple of your eye when you could just take pictures like this and announce it in style?

    Two for the price of one

    So you want a full picture that shows you and the sugar in your tea, but you also want a close-up shot of your engagement ring? This is for you.

    The view

    We suggest you haul yourself to the top of a mountain and recreate this picture, just to show the lengths you and your pookie wookie would go for each other.

    Longing

    You and your partner have waited for each other forever, and now that you’ve found your missing rib, you can’t wait for the whole world to see.

    Vintage

    The love you and your partner share surpasses space and time. You both believe you would have met each other and fallen in love in any era you found yourselves in. 

    The calm

    The best way to show that your baby came into your life and gave you peace is by recreating this shot.

  • What if the Royal Wedding was a Nigerian owambe?

    The Internet went crazy for Harry and Meghan

    The royal wedding has been one of the most talked about events this year.  Not only was it just a Royal Wedding, it was Meghan Markle’s, a black woman’s wedding!
    And while the wedding was cute and all that, one thing everyone was probably asking was this; what would this wedding have looked like if it was a Nigerian one? Like, is there even a wedding if there’s no pre-wedding photoshoot?

    Just look at Meghan and Harry.

    Exhibit A: Man and woman in love, tenderly touch each other as they pose for the photo

    Now, look at our own.

    Exhibit B: Man and woman strike pose clearly illustrating what they intend to spend a lot of their time doing.

    What about bridesmaids?

    Look at this lineup. Is it really a bridal train if it can’t fill up one stadium? And can you see the colours?

    How are we not seeing people slaying in Agbada?

    Imagine all the pictures we saw of guests were Aso Ebi pictures? Just imagine Ebuka and David Beckham dragging for who rocked the Agbada better.

    How can we forget about The Unshakeable Table

    What is a Nigerian wedding without an Almighty table? The table that has all the drinks, food and small chops. Imagine Queen Elizabeth with one big bowl of Jollof Rice.

    And the bride kneeling down to greet everyone.

    Imagine Meghan walking past her mother-in-law, smiling or waving? That marriage? Cancelled.

    Everlasting photo sessions.

    Picture of couple with parents, picture of couple with ex boyfriend , picture of couple with enemies, picture of couple with dog, picture of couple with celebs, picture of couple with photographer, picture of couple with you….

    It’s My Turn.

    The main bridesmaid duty for meghan’s friends will be to meet Prince Harrys friends, because that type of blessing has to be distributed

    And who’s going to perform?

    This will be the event where wizkid and Davido finally drop a song together!

    And when it is time for marital advice?

    “and as I round up, sister Meghan, I want you to know that if your husband wants you to lick the ground you have no choice but to do it! He’s the head of the home.”

    And most importantly, an abundance of Jollof Rice.

    That everyone will still fight for because we need to keep some in the Fridge.
