Your wedding day is a day you want to remember forever. You want every last detail like the food, the fun and the flowers to be captured on film. Typically the photographer focuses on the couple portraits and all the big ustoments like the I do’s, the first dance and cake cutting. Often times all those tiny details that you put so much thought into are forgotten with the hectic wedding day schedule. I advise couples to opt for a photography package that includes a second shooter. The second shooter can sneak off and capture all the details while the lead photographer is handling the traditional shot list. So make sure when you’re finalizing details with your photographer to include my top 10 must have details shots.
Invitations Tip – Have your photographer arrive early to capture bridal prep wherever you are getting ready. This is also a great time for them to capture all the details like the invitations, jewelry and accessories before the craziness of the day sets in.
Jewelry Tip – Ask your florist to deliver a few loose blooms with the bouquets so your photographer can stage some dreamy shots like this one.
Rings Tip – Setting the rings within the blooms of the bridal bouquet makes for stunning images, so make sure that your bouquets will arrive early so your photog has time to stage the perfect ring shot.
Flowers Tip – Ask your photographer to get close up shots of your wedding flowers. You can blow up these images for your home. They make great decorative prints to hang on your wall.
Cake Tip – Modern brides & grooms take great care in choosing the design for their wedding cake. It usually incorporates personal details and is a true reflection of the couple. Put some extra time and effort into planning the perfect decorative display for your wedding cake!
