Wedding Tip or Trick of the Week

Getting the Most from Your Portraits

Do you find yourself drooling over fabulous photographs of couples playing in fountains, rolling in the waves or in creatively inspired locations? Wondering how you, too, can get amazing photographs like this on your wedding day?

Great! Here are a few helpful hints:

*Schedule plenty of time in your wedding day to take creative portraits. Being skilled and seasoned in working with various amounts of time, we create beautiful works of art of you and your new spouse; however, the best results - often the ones you see on our website or blog - are created when the couple schedules at least 20-minutes of time to capture moments of the couple alone.
*Talk with your photographer before your wedding day about what you'd like from your scheduled alone time.
*Be sure to give your location and schedule information to your photographer in well in advance. This allows the photographer to plan out your time, so the spontaneous moments between you and your spouse can take place in an ideal location.

Another great way to capture those amazing photographs of you and your new spouse is to schedule a "Day After" session. These sessions are typically taken the day after your wedding nearby your hotel, or room accommodations. "Day After" shoots can take place nearby or at a destination and can be casual, romantic, fun, clean or dirty (ie. the sand near the ocean type of locations); sessions typically last 1-3 hours.
