Ok maybe you won't completely ignore them, but the majority of your photos and video should be about you two. 

Unless you're a professional model ,  constantly interacting with the camera will cause you to seem stiff.

When you look at your wedding and engagement photos and video later on down the line, you'll want to remember how you felt that day, not how you were posed. 

Being more involved in spending a great time with your fiancee or spouse than worrying about how you look or feel will result in better photos.

Try This: Focus more on your significant other during a photo shoot. Laugh with them, be lost in the moment with them, and do you best to let everything else fade away.

We all want to highlight our best features. The best way to do this is to bring any part of your body that you love, closer to the camera.

Love your eyes?

Lean your head slightly towards the camera and tilt you chin slightly down to cause you eyes to open more.

Love your hair? 

Make sure it's blown-out or nicely styled and stays more in front of your shoulder than behind.

Love your shoulders? 

Don't be afraid to throw a little sass at the camera and do some cute over-the-shoulder poses!

Want to show off your waist line?

Make sure the your hands aren't ever flat by your sides. Bring your arms and elbows ever so slightly away from your waist line so the camera can clearly see it.

This tip is exactly the opposite as the previous. Any parts that you're not too fond of, or want to appear slimmer, move them away from the camera. Objects that are farther away from the camera are perceived smaller than they are.

Want slimmer arms?

Be sure to always have a slight bend in your elbows and bring your elbow more towards the back rather than out to the side.

Not a fan of your hips?

Just stand slightly sideways instead of dead-on to the camera and lean on your back leg (causing the one closest to the camera to bend). Not only will this make your hips appear smaller, but you'll love the sexy curve it'll give to your whole body.

This may be one of the biggest mistakes I see people make in wedding and engagement pictures. So many people want to avoid having a double-chin so they pick their chin up. All that does is show the camera more of the neck you're trying to hide. Occasionally, people will do the opposite and tilt their chin down. Unfortunately, this can emphasize any extra neck skin that we're trying to disguise.

Try This: 

Think like a turtle and pop your head out of it's shell. Try to create as much space as possible between the front of your shoulders and the back of your jaw, almost like a chicken does during his cluck-cluck head bob. Bringing your face closer to the camera while keeping your body and shoulders where they are may feel completely weird, but it'll make you look amazing!
