How to make your wedding day unforgettable

Your pho­tos are what will remain with you after the wed­ding. Mem­o­ries become the cement that holds your mar­riage togeth­er. The stronger they are, the stronger your fortress will hold.

In it, we have gath­ered pro­fes­sion­als who will save your sin­cere emo­tions and impor­tant moments of the wed­ding day in beau­ti­ful pho­tographs.

The pho­tog­ra­ph­er will not do all the work for you. Pre­pare for the pho­to ses­sion in advance. Plan routeso that on the day of the wed­ding he did not vio­late the sched­ule. Good light­ing impor­tant. In nature, the light can­not be changed at will — you have to choose the time. To take a pho­to at sun­set, you need to arrive at the shoot­ing loca­tion just before sun­set.

Where to take a photo?

Pop­u­lar places: hotel lob­bies or anti­cafe. You agree on a lease, and regard­less of the weath­er and sea­son, you will have an expen­sive beau­ti­ful pic­ture.

Parks and parks - a good option in the sum­mer. Bright flow­ers, scat­tered rays of light and an abun­dance of green­ery. By the way, there are stun­ning pho­tographs in nature and in late autumn, con­trary to stereo­types. This requires a com­pe­tent pho­tog­ra­ph­er and warm clothes.

Less pop­u­lar, but still in demand mon­u­ments and ancient cathe­drals. It’s easy to fall into a trap here and make tem­plate wed­ding pho­tos. Talk to the pho­tog­ra­ph­er, let him under­stand that you do not want bored angles.

How to choose suitable places?

Decide on a style. You can make beau­ti­ful reportage shots near city sights. For staged pho­tos, it is bet­ter to find a qui­et place where no one will stop you from freez­ing in front of the cam­era.

If you are plan­ning a themed wed­ding, choose themed loca­tions. For a wed­ding in style Rus­tic suit­able for­est or clear­ing. Go to the farm­lands if you have a wed­ding Coun­try. Pho­to ses­sion for nau­ti­cal wed­dings can be held on the beach or on a yacht. Vin­tage a wed­ding is retro cars or a muse­um with rare exhibits.

For those who are not afraid of heights, we offer pho­tog­ra­phy on the roof. The taller the build­ing, the bet­ter the view. Go to the roof of your choice in advance and check how clean it is and how com­fort­able the lift is.

A vin­tage and dar­ing idea for wed­ding pho­tog­ra­phy: an amuse­ment park. Cot­ton can­dy, bright carousels, cheer­ful laugh­ter and mil­lions of light bulbs.

Some tips for choosing a location

• Do not do it “stand as if hold­ing the bride in the palm of your hand. Please. The num­ber of taste­less pho­tos from the wed­ding is already approach­ing crit­i­cal. There are many orig­i­nal angles.

• Do not go far from the restau­rant and the reg­istry office. That way you won’t be late and you won’t be late for the cer­e­mo­ny.

• Choose seclud­ed areas where passers-by will not fit into the frame. Or, on the con­trary, a crowd­ed place where the crowd merges into a har­mo­nious stream.

• Look for panoram­ic views: hills, high­lands, seclud­ed beach­es, rivers.

• Take a few pic­tures relat­ed to your sto­ry: in your favorite cafe, at the place of acquain­tance or first date.

• Con­sid­er the time of year. In win­ter, bet on the premis­es, and in the sum­mer — on nature. In ear­ly spring or autumn, the for­est can be mud­dy. Bright rub­ber boots are fun and com­fort­able!

When is the wedding photo shoot?

Shoot­ing time is lim­it­ed wed­ding day plan: cer­e­mo­ny, ban­quet — every­thing is sched­uled to the minute. It turns out that the wed­ding walk falls in the mid­dle of the day, which is bad. Hard light is squint­ed eyes in the pho­to and drip­ping make­up.

The best time for a pho­to ses­sion: before two or after four in the after­noon. The pho­to ses­sion can be held on the day of the wed­ding.

In our arti­cle, we tried to reveal all the sub­tleties of choos­ing a loca­tion for a suc­cess­ful pho­to shoot. But nei­ther your strong feel­ings, nor the most beau­ti­ful place in the world guar­an­tee the qual­i­ty and beau­ty of the pic­tures, if you did not approach the choice of a wed­ding pho­tog­ra­ph­er respon­si­bly enough.
