One of the most important days of your life is your wedding, which is full of memories you’ll want to save forever. Not only is it important to capture the day on camera, but it’s also important to preserve the feelings and spirit of your celebration.
Here are some crucial pointers for couples to think about to make sure their wedding photos are everything they’ve ever imagined and more:
- Establish Your Look: Talk to your partner about the type of wedding photography you both like before you start looking for a photographer. Which kind of photos do you envision — classic, traditional portraits or more natural, documentary-style images that capture the day as it happens? Knowing your preferred aesthetic is key to the best wedding photography.
- Establish a Connection: Building a strong relationship with your wedding photographer is crucial because they will be with you for most of the day. When we meet, I’ll talk with you about your goals, your timeframe for the wedding, and any particular photos you have in mind.
- Create a Shot List: When thinking about your wedding photography, it’s easy to get overwhelmed by wanting to capture each moment. To help alleviate this feeling, I will collaborate with you to create a shot list that includes essential pictures like family portraits, group images of the bridal party, and memorable moments like the first look. I can also record any customs you would like photographed that are related to your culture or religion. This gives you peace of mind that important things won’t be missed.
- Savor the Moment: Above all, I want you to enjoy your day and remember that feeling each time you look at your wedding photography. I’ll work hard to capture the happiness and joy of the day while you take time to be present in the moment with your friends and family.
