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!!

Benji had the sweetest surprise planned for Shani—10 years of memories, a personal song, and a magical evening in Stanley Park. Watching her reaction as the slideshow played and the moment unfolded was pure magic. It’s reminders like these that love is about thoughtfulness, connection, and celebrating the journey you’ve shared together.
This is what growing up together looks like — ch This is what growing up together looks like — choosing each other since they were 15 years old, learning each other, and building a life side by side.
Not many people get to say they met their person so young… but these two really did.
Sometimes you book a portrait session because you’ve grown — and you want to honour that version of yourself.
The stronger you.
The softer you.
The you who’s been through a lot and still shows up with a full heart.
These photos become a reminder of who you’ve become… and who you’re still becoming.
