Our job as your photographers is to capture the story of your wedding day as it unfolds. This story begins not at the ceremony but the moment you start getting ready, so here are a few tips we always give the clients that will help us get beautiful images of them as they prepare for their big day: You can also see how you can choose a good photographer
Keep The Rooms Clean
Keep both the bride’s and the groom’s room clean and have the room made by the hotel staff prior to the photo/video start time. This helps eliminate the possibility of having any obtrusive objects in the background or needing to take time away from our artistry to tidy up. Also, a freshly made bed allows us to use it for fun poses like the ones you see below.
Make The Details Ready And Easily Accessible
The bride should have all the details (dress, rings, shoes, etc.) in one spot. Having all of these items together allows the photographer to easily photograph all of your important details in one place instead of having to gather the items from separate locations.
Hair And Makeup For The Bride Should Be First
For the brides, please have your hair and makeup done first to avoid the risk of running late. This is very important because if your hair and makeup are not finished on time, this will cut into your photography time and will decrease the number of images we are able to shoot and deliver.
Small Number Of People
Too many people in the room can add stress to the day. Besides bridesmaids, a few immediate family members and your wedding vendors, everyone else should wait until later in the day to hang out with you.
Have Immediately Family Around
This is a great opportunity to get some intimate pictures with your parents or your siblings. This is also a great time to have a “first look” between the bride and her mother and father.
Give Us Enough Time
As you can see from our Ideal Wedding Timeline Article, we prefer to have around 1.5 hours of time for the details and prep.
These wedding preparation tips should help your photographer get better images easily and with the shortest time possible
