The stunning pictures include a man and woman who appear to be trying to fight off a dinosaur and others in a tender embrace in front of a picturesque backdrop.

The engagement snaps have been included in the Best Of The Best Engagement Photo Contest for 2016, as chosen by Junebug Weddings.

Each year, the company chooses 50 unique shots that capture the raw emotion of the special moment.

This year, the competition, which has been running for four years, received thousands of entries from around the world.
