Your wedding photos document one of the most important events of your life. Having the perfect wedding photos will help you to remember back to the time when you started your life with your spouse. These must-have shots capture small moments, starting with getting ready and going all the way to the reception afterward.
Bride Thoughtfully Getting Ready
Brides have a lot to think about on their wedding day. Sometime between getting dressed, doing their hair and coordinating with various vendors, many brides take a moment to reflect , think back, and think forward. Have your photographer capture a moment of quiet solitude and reflection, so you'll remember what it felt like to be nervous, excited and hopeful, all at once.
Groom With Groomsmen, Having Fun
There's a lot of joking around that occurs on the day of a wedding. Have your photographer take a picture of horseplay and fun between groomsmen and the groom. Whether you're all sitting in chairs having a drink, standing outside tossing a ball or just joshing around in a big group, that's time worth capturing on camera.
Mom and Bride Hug
Complex emotions shine through between moms and brides on the big day. Be sure to have your photographer get a picture of mom and the bride, hugging one another in a tearful or happy moment. These pictures will make wonderful Mother’s Day gifts later on.
Dad Whispering Advice to Groom
Sons often turn to their fathers for advice, especially when their time comes to get married. These powerful conversations show the bond between them, and also allude to the personal importance of the event. Work with the photographer to ensure that he or she is able to snap a picture that shows this special moment.
Fun At the Reception
Receptions tend to be lively , rollicking events with a lot of laughing, hugging and dancing. Encourage your photographer to walk around the reception continuously to take pictures of the parts of your wedding that you and your spouse might not see. Hopefully, your photographer will capture images of relatives getting to know one another, old friends reuniting, kids dancing with their dress shoes scattered around the floor. You'll love looking back on these moments.
Communicate with Your Photographer
Photographers don't always know what pictures their clients really want to see. The only way to ensure that your photographer will take the right pictures is to communicate clearly with your photographer before the wedding day. Talk to him or her about your relationships with those who have been invited, who you want to capture, and the kind of pictures you want to see. Some couples want dramatic photos, others want fun, light-hearted images. Your photographer won't know what you want until you've given him or her your expectations.
