4 Wedding Photography Tips For Great Photos

February 7, 2023
Ceremony  ·  Photography  ·  Wedding

There are so many things to think of and check off the list when it comes to your wedding, trust me I know!

You’re connecting with vendors, confirming the final details all while trying to remain calm, cool and collected before the big day. Everyone’s priorities are different when it comes to their wedding, but I think we can all agree that remembering your wedding with photo’s to look back on is top of the list (or maybe I am a little biased). Being transported back in, feeling every emotion and reliving the memories is something you want to be able to do for years to come! So, here are my top tips to getting the most out of your wedding photos so you can fall madly in-love with them each time you look back!! 

  1. Get To Know Your Photographer
    Spend time getting to know your photographer and their style. Find out if they have a signature style or editing that aligns with the look you’re hoping for, this way you have knowledge to create meaningful and unique photos.

2. Prepare for the day
 Do a walkthrough of the venue or have an idea of where you may want bridal portraits taken! This will be great to provide to your photographer so they can make sure their shot list includes everything you want to capture.

3. Don’t Be Afraid To Capture Candid Moments
Capture those moments that aren’t posed. These are often the most meaningful and treasured photos. Don’t be afraid to laugh and have fun with your photographer, these moments often make the best photos!

4. Have Fun!
Have fun with your your shots! Make sure to capture the joy of the day, and the fun between you and your loved one!!

Cass & Ziggy✨ Their wedding at Poets Cove was e Cass & Ziggy✨

Their wedding at Poets Cove was everything a small wedding should be—intimate, full of laughter, and wrapped in the love of their closest family and friends. ✨

From the gentle island breeze to the heartfelt vows, every moment felt personal and perfectly theirs. Small weddings have a way of making the love and joy feel even bigger, and being there to capture it all was an absolute dream.

Angela & Baron ✨ Golden hour in Stanley Park is Angela & Baron ✨

Golden hour in Stanley Park is already breathtaking… but pair it with Angela and Baron celebrating their soon-to-be “I do’s” and it becomes unforgettable.

The quiet trails, the glow over the ocean, and those little pre-wedding butterflies—it was all there. A session like this is the perfect pause in preparation for the big day, a way to soak up the anticipation and capture the excitement before stepping into forever.
Nakisha + Will There’s just something about the Nakisha + Will

There’s just something about the city at sunset—the hum of the streets below, the skyline glowing, and the two of you in your own little world on a rooftop above it all. ✨

Nakisha and Will’s engagement session felt like pure magic—intimate, bold, and filled with laughter that carried across the skyline.
