All about wedding photography - What are the special photos on your shot list?

Joey, on January 22, 2018 at 08:21 Posted in Plan a wedding 0 17

Your wedding photographer is responsible for documenting the most important moments of your wedding day. You'll want to make sure your styles, personalities, and ideas work well together, and you'll need to agree on a plan for the day to ensure you end up with photos you'll love. We have a series of questions to help make sure you get the most amazing pictures possible to hang on the wall and put in your wedding album!

To make sure you get all the important shots you need, you'll probably be asked by your photographer to submit a shot list to them before the wedding. They'll use this on your wedding day as their guide. But beyond the basics, what are the special photos on your personal shot list?

    One of the special photo we will be doing is a photo of the female generations and our rings (my grandmother, mom and me)

    Our photographer doesn't allow us to give a shot list- takes too long but I know she will capture all the key pictures that I want.

    YES! Me too. The reason we went with 2 photographers is so one photographer could capture each of us as we saw each other for the first time!

    I don't have any - I trust that the photographer will capture the important moments without me pointing them out to her. I want the photos to really reflect the feel of the day, and not necessarily stage everything.

    I love the pictures of the dress hanging up. And, I want some with reflections or where something else is the focus and we are in the background--some creative shots.
