Make the Most of Your Wedding Photography
We’re going to keep it simple and direct. If you can incorporate as many of these 7 suggestions in planning your wedding, you WILL get the most out of your wedding photography.
Have A Wedding Planner or Coordinator:
Planning a wedding can be a daunting task for any couple. Hiring a wedding planner can help alleviate the stress by providing professional guidance, industry knowledge, and a tailored approach to each couple's unique vision. From budget management to vendor coordination, a wedding planner can ensure a seamless and memorable wedding day.
2. Do everything at one venue:
Having your wedding at a single venue offers several advantages. First, it eliminates the need for guests and vendors to travel between multiple locations, saving time and reducing stress. The more time we save in travel the more photos! :) Secondly, it allows for better coordination, ensuring that the wedding runs smoothly. Lastly, it will help your guests have a more smooth experience and give them a better chance to celebrate you (and PARTY!)
3. Get Detailed:
Attention brides-to-be! It's crucial that you set aside all your wedding details before your photographer arrives. Your wedding dress, shoes, jewelry, invitations, bridal party gifts, programs, and any other sentimental items should be ready and waiting to be photographed as soon as your photographer arrives. Trust us, this simple step can make all the difference in capturing beautiful, timeless images that you'll treasure for a lifetime. So don't forget to plan ahead and make sure all your wedding details are photo-ready on your big day!
4. Extra Flowers:
Having extra flowers early on your wedding day can be a game-changer when it comes to capturing beautiful detail shots for your wedding album. Not only will they add pops of color and texture to your photographs, but they'll also allow your photographer to get creative with composition and styling. So, consider investing in a few additional blooms to elevate your wedding photos and create a stunning visual story that you'll treasure for years to come!
5. Hire Us to Bring A Second Photographer
Couples! Here’s why hiring us to bring a second photographer to your wedding is a big WIN. Not only will you receive more candid shots and a second storyline to the day, but logistically it will be easier working with your wedding day timeline for our team to capture all the intricate details of your cocktail hour and reception setup while our main photographer photographs your family photos and your wedding portraits during golden hour.
6. Hire Us All Day!
Time is of the essence! Our 8-hour wedding photography package offers ample opportunity for stunning shots, but why settle for less when you can have it all? With our all-day package, you won't have to sacrifice any precious moments - from the early morning preparations to the grand finale exit, we'll be there every step of the way. With more time, comes more creativity and the chance to tell your unique love story in even greater detail.
7. Do a First Look:
There a SOOOO many reasons why we reccomend couples do a first look. Here are two big ones: One, it will open up your timeline so that you can do all your bridal party, bride & groom, and immediate family photos before the ceremony, so afterwards you'll have more time for golden hour couple photos. Secondly, all couples, even laid back couples, carry stress on their wedding day. The moment they get to see their Love, we can literally see the stress melt off, which produces vey sweet and authentic photos.
