Are you looking for candid photos? Are you two easy-going? maybe a little awkward too?


Over the years, I’ve discovered a the best way to capture the true essence of a photography– through games! As an engagement photographer, I’ve been using this method for quite some time, and I can honestly say it’s a game-changer.


Instead of the usual "pose and smile" routine, I encourage couples to engage in fun, interactive games.

Here’s why I believe couple games are a fantastic alternative to simply posing for photos.

  • Games capture genuine emotions and interactions, unlike stiff, posed photos.
  • Makes sure that you're not thinking about the camera.
  • Playing games adds depth to your photos and brings out your natural chemistry, showcasing your relationship authentically.
  • Games make photo sessions enjoyable and dynamic.

Here’s are some of the apps that I've downloaded.

  • Senses Cards - $15/mo or $70 for the entire year.
  • Couple Game - $10.99/mo, your partner's app will be free.
  • Paired - 7 day free trial then 3.33/mo billed yearly.


Not only its fun, but if you like challenges, these are the app to get.
