Your wedding is a special once-in-a-lifetime event that is over in the blink of an eye. You spend months (sometimes even years) planning the amazing day and when it finally arrives there’s so much excitement in the air, so many familiar faces all in one place, so many details finally coming together, you realise you’re walking over the threshold just as fast as you were walking down the aisle. When asked about their wedding, do you know what the most common response from every couple is? “It went by so fast.”
This is why I always recommend having someone capture the day for you, so you can look back and take in all the moments you might have missed. And there is nothing like the anticipation of your weddings photos once everything has slowed down again and getting the chance to relive it all.
Each photographer has their unique style and way of taking photos, their own eye-for-detail, if you will. The photos might look candid, but trust me, a lot of thought goes into them. Despite our different styles, there are some photo ‘must haves’ that each photographer should capture. And this leads me to today’s topic. Here is a list of 10 photos you should make sure to ask your photographer about.
