SOME HELPFUL TIPS & THINGS TO CONSIDER

IN ORDER TO ALLOW FOR A PRIVATE PHOTO SESSION OF THE COUPLE, IT IS BEST TO SECURE AT LEAST 30 - 45 MINUTES OF YOUR TIME ALONE WITH THE PHOTOGRAPHER.
THIS TIME NEEDS TO BE UNINTERRUPTED AND JUST US TO HELP ENSURE THE TIMELINE STAYS ON TRACK. PLUS, YOU TWO DESERVE SOME ALONE TIME TOGETHER BEFORE EVERYTHING GETS UNDER WAY!

TRY TO PLAN FOR 2-3 MINUTES PER PHOTO FOR SHOTS WITH LESS THAN A HANDFUL OF PEOPLE. IF YOU HAVE LARGE GROUPS, PLAN FOR ROUGHLY 5-10 MINUTES PER PHOTO. IT ALWAYS TAKES TIME TO GATHER PEOPLE TOGETHER, GET THEM TO FOCUS (AND LOOK AT THE CAMERA!) AND BE READY TO GO. BEFORE YOUR WEDDING DAY, INFORM YOUR VIPs THAT THEY WILL BE NEEDED FOR FORMAL PHOTOS AND WHERE YOU WOULD LIKE THEM TO BE SO THEY CAN BE PREPARED AHEAD OF TIME.

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE ASSIGN A FRIEND WHO KNOWS EVERYONE TO ROUND UP THE VIPs AND CALL OUT NAMES FOR GROUP PHOTOS.
GETTING PEOPLE WHERE THEY NEED TO BE FOR GROUP AND FORMAL PORTRAITS IS THE MOST TIME CONSUMING PART OF THE DAY.
THE MORE PREPARED WE ARE, THE QUICKER IT GOES AND THE QUICKER YOU GET TO PARTY!

THANKS SO MUCH FOR COMPLETING THIS QUESTIONNAIRE! I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE YOUR LOVE UNFOLD THROUGHOUT YOUR BIG DAY!
