PLANNING: Don’t Rush Through the Photos

June 28, 2010

There’s just something about these sweet photographs that really bring to mind just how important it is to make time for “couple shots” in your busy wedding day schedule.  Before you set the timeline, we suggest you speak at length with your photographer on what they NEED to get the photos you’ve hired them for!  For instance, some photographers request an hour or 90 minutes of time to shoot the bride and groom interacting together – once they’re dressed!  Not after the ceremony.  Other photographers may ask for two solid hours of time or a fast 45 minutes.  Point it, ASK.   The photographs of the two of you are personal, intimate photographs that are crucial in telling the story of your wedding day.  Just like the wedding in general, YOU determine the style and mood of how the day is portrayed.  If posed and formal photography is your thing, by all means, embrace it with gusto!  If you prefer an edgy, fashion-based photographic style, we’re certain there’s a photographer out there for you.  Like most couples, Jennifer and Andrew understood that storytelling might cross over into every imaginable style to reflect the various aspects of the weddng day as it unfolded.   The ending result was an accurate depiction of where they came from and who they are as a couple -  playful, loving and passionate.
