How to Prepare for Your Wedding Photography

Preparation ensures everything runs smoothly and you get stunning photos to cherish forever.

1. Schedule a Consultation: Meet your photographer to discuss your vision and expectations. A consultation also helps to establish trust and comfort. Contact me to book your consultation.

2. Choose the Right Outfit: Your wedding attire should reflect your personality and the event’s style. Consider the colours and designs that will photograph well.

3. Pamper Yourself: Good sleep, hydration, and self-care go a long way to ensuring you look your best on the big day.

4. Communicate the Timeline: Share your wedding day schedule with your photographer, including key moments you don’t want missed.

5. Embrace Spontaneity: Some of the most magical shots happen when you least expect them. Trust your photographer to find those perfect moments.
