Coming from a wedding/engagement photographer in New York City it might sound biased, but: everyone should take engagement photos. They're a great opportunity to get fresh new pics with your partner AND get chummy with your wedding photographer.

Engagement
TIPS
When you choose your wedding/engagement photographer, you should pick a date for your photos. If you're following a wedding planning timeline, this will be 8-12 months pre-wedding. The sooner you can get engagement photos taken, the better -- you don't want to be stressed out in full wedding planning mode during the shoot.
I always recommend an engagement session because it is an excellent way to get to know the photographer and get used to being in front of the camera.
