Classic Wedding Photographers

It’s a question that’s been asked a few times in our forums over the last few months so while I’m not a Pro Wedding Photographer.

Scout the Location

Visit the locations of the different places that you’ll be shooting before the big day. While I’m sure most Pros don’t do this - I find it really helpful to know where we’re going, have an idea of a few positions for shots and to know how the light might come into play. On one or two weddings I even visited locations with the couples and took a few test shots.

Expect the Unexpected

The best man can’t find the ring, the rain pours down just as the ceremony ends, the groom forgets to do up his fly, the flower girl decides to sit down in the middle of the aisle or the bride can’t remember her vows.

Special Unique Wedding Dresses

This will be a cheaper solution than hiring a designer to create it for you. The latter option, however, will ensure that your wedding dress is totally unique and specially designed. You could select a short or tea length dress with a unique design enhancing it, probably using a great number of folds and frills. You could also adorn your special, unique wedding dress with various beads and sequins, all to draw attention to yourself and give out an aura of ethereal beauty and magnificence. The neck could be a casual one, falling in folds, to emphasize your bust further, or a carefully gilded one to add some spice to the dress.
