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 our
clients that will help us get beautiful images of them as they prepare
for their big day:
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.
Have All the Details Ready
The bride should have all the details (dress, rings, shoes, etc.) in
one spot. Having all of these items together allows for the photographer
to easily photograph all of your important details in one place instead
of having to gather the items from separate locations.
Use a Decorative or Custom Hanger
Have a nice hanger for the wedding dress so that your dress won’t
have to be displayed on a less-than-beautiful, default plastic hanger.
Many nice hotels have wooden hangers for us to use, but some don’t. It’s
always better to be prepared if that dress shot is important to you.
Brides First for Hair and Makeup
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 amount of images we are able to shoot and
deliver.
Keep the Number of People Low
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 Immediate 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.
