Planning
your Photos:
The
formal pictures and portraits are a central part
of any wedding package. For most weddings, if
everything goes like clockwork, the formal wedding
session will take at least one and a half hours.
The formal session can be tiring, particularly
for the bride and groom, who are in every photo.
Here are some tips, and some things to consider,
for your formal session.
Plan ahead. Take the shot list provided by your
photographer and carefully consider it before
the wedding. List every shot that you want taken
and return it to the photographer at least a week
before the ceremony. We suggest a variety of different
looks when choosing clothing for your session.
At least one casual outfit and one formal. Solid
colors work best. Avoid anything with wording
or large logos, wild patterns or stripes, unless
you are trying to make a certain statement. Wear
fitted, tailored clothing, but avoid anything
that might be too tight. If it doesn't fit right,
it will only show up 100% more in your pictures.
Retouching is included in print collections. Retouching
is natural and beautiful, never overdone. There
are no additional charges for cropping, black
& white or sepia conversion.
We always keep your whole session archived in
case you ever need additional prints after you've
ordered. You may also order any photo from your
session, not just the images in your first order.
Try to get enough sleep the night before. Don't
rush around before your session. Try to come into
your session as relaxed and unstressed as you
can. If something stressful happens, just call
me and reschedule!
Ladies, if you usually wear makeup, wear a little
bit more then you usually do. If you never, ever
wear makeup, please wear a little bit of shine
controlling powder and clear lip gloss or even
a chapstick with a little bit of sheen. Little
things like this really make a difference. Dry
lips don't photograph well! |

Wedding Photo Tips
•Expression
says it all and her expression says
exactly what she is thinking: "If
you are thinking of pushing that cake
in my face you had better FORGET IT!"
A beautiful wedding portrait will not
be very appealing if the bride and groom
look tense and strained. Allow enough
time for formal pictures and portraits
so you can put your mind at ease. It will
also take some time to begin to feel comfortable
with your photographer. A good photographer
will talk with you throughout the process
and eventually you will start to relax
and feel comfortable in his or her presence.
Most people also find that it is very
difficult, when posing in front of a camera,
to consistently give a great expression.
Notice I said great "expression"
and not great "smile". The best
photos have great expressions and not
ear-to-ear smiles. Here's a few tips.
If you cannot produce a natural pleasant
expression on command, just forget about
smiling altogether. Try to forget about
the photographer being there and just
feel happy! That's right....relax, and
just feel happy. The natural happiness
will show on your face.
Ask your photographer if you can look
away for a moment and then look back into
the lens. If the photographer is fast
he can capture the natural expression
on your face as you look back. Take the
time, ahead of time, to make a list for
the photographer of any heirlooms, any
special clothing items, any decorations,
or anything else that you will want a
photo of.
If you see a photo in a bridal magazine
or elsewhere that you really like, don't
be afraid to show it to your photographer
and ask him or her to do something similar
for your wedding.
Most photographers will provide you with
a shot list that will be a good starting
point.

Every
couple needs to decide what their engagement and
wedding package will consist of depending upon
their budget. Some couples may choose a less expensive
engagement package to allow a more elaborate wedding
package.
There are several important uses for engagement
photos:
1) You need a good photo for the newspaper announcement
of your wedding. Most photographers can take the
picture and submit it to the paper for you.
2) You deserve to have a nice wall portrait of
the two of you from "the days before you
are married."
3) You might want to include a print of your engagement
picture in your wedding invitations.
4) Engagement photos make great gifts.
Another creative use of your engagement portrait
is to create a guest register for your wedding
by placing a copy of your photo in a large matte
and have quests write their comments as they enter
instead of in a guest book.
This creation provides an interesting guest register
that can also hang in your home for many years
and bring back memories each time you see it.
You can certainly select an expensive assortment
of engagement pictures if you want to send them
to family or friends, but your engagement package
can also be a place to save some money if you
are on a tight budget. |

| Formal
Photos before or after the ceremony? |
| Customs
are changing. It was once the tradition that the
bride did not want to be seen by the groom until
the start of the wedding ceremony. This means
that the formal and group pictures could not be
taken until after the wedding. But fewer and fewer
couples are following this tradition. Some brides
have told me that they consider the wedding ceremony
to have started when the families and friends
come together but most decide to have the photos
before the wedding simply because this is the
most practical thing to do, and the most considerate
for those who will be in the photos. |
