Why Every Couple Should Do an “Ice Breaker” Photo Session Before Their Wedding (Yes, Even You!)

By Karmapants Photography – Your Favorite Wedding Third Wheel

Planning a wedding? Great! You’ve already picked your date, locked in your venue, and (obviously) hired Karmapants Photography — good moves all around. But before you leap into the whirlwind of your big day, let us let you in on a little secret:

💥 You need an ice breaker photo session.
(Trust us. We’re professionals. With cameras. And snacks.)

This isn’t just a “nice-to-have” or an excuse for cute Instagram photos (although... yes, those will happen). It’s your warm-up. Your practice round. Your chance to shake off those “what do I do with my hands?!” nerves and get comfortable with the people who will be all up in your personal space — lovingly — on the most important day of your life.

Let us break down why this low-stress, pre-wedding photo session is a must.

1. 📸 You Get to Know Us — and We Get to Know You

Imagine this: it’s your wedding morning. You're in full glam, hearts racing, and a stranger with a camera says, “Okay, now kiss like no one’s watching!”

Awkward, right?

That’s why we do an ice breaker session. It gives us all a chance to hang out, chat, laugh, and — most importantly — for you to see how fun and easy we make being in front of a camera. No pressure. No clock ticking. Just you two, being your weird, wonderful selves, while we capture it.

By the time your wedding day rolls around, we won’t feel like strangers — we’ll feel like old friends (who happen to carry really expensive gear).

2. 💃 You Learn to Pose Without Feeling Like a Mannequin

Spoiler alert: most people aren’t models. And that’s perfectly okay.

An ice breaker session lets you learn how to pose without feeling stiff & get used to PDA in public (you’d be surprised how many people freeze up at “just a little forehead kiss”)

We’ll show you flattering poses, give gentle direction, and help you look like the best, most authentic version of you. By wedding day, you’ll know exactly what to expect — and you’ll totally rock it.

3. 😄 Confidence = Natural, Joyful Photos

Let’s be real: the camera can feel intimidating. But after our session, it won’t be.

You’ll see how we work, get comfortable with our style, and realize that it’s not about posing — it’s about playing. We’ll sneak in prompts that get you laughing, cuddling, dancing like no one’s watching (but we are, and it’s adorable).

You’ll walk away feeling confident, connected, and maybe even saying, “That was actually fun.”

We’ve seen it a hundred times. Couples who do an ice breaker session walk into their wedding day with total photo swagger. No awkward “where do we stand?” panic — just genuine love, comfort, and chemistry on camera.

4. 📅 You Get Bonus Photos Before the Wedding!

You know what’s a sweet perk? You get actual photos from your session. Use them for Save-the-dates, Your wedding website, A killer guestbook, or Social media profile pics that don’t involve Snapchat filters

Plus, your friends and family will be obsessed with how good you look. (We’ll take some credit.)
