The West-Kardashian engagement has been the subject of much scrutiny since its announcement. The upcoming nuptial ceremony is sure to yield a media circus to rival the Kardashian's last wedding -- the unfortunate 72-week union between Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphrey. Until the Kimye wedding does happen, the world waits with bated breath for the couples sure-to-be-romantic engagement photos -- most likely to be shared with 8 million of their closest friends via a People Magazine cover and numerous Instagram accounts.
The art of the couple photo is a delicate thing: you want to be sweet, but not sickeningly so. However, there also exists great variety within couple photography, with some opting for candid couple photography, and others tapping into their eccentric sides with sci-fi-themed engagement photos.
