Step 1

Get in touch with the happy couple to make sure you know exactly what they want from the day. They may want you to be around all day taking candid shots at the service and reception, or they may just require the formal family portraits. Try and agree on how formal they want the photos to be, whether it involves the whole party lining up outside the church or whether they’d prefer some more informal shots of just themselves at a chosen location.

If you are allowed, try to be there at every stage of the wedding, the bride getting ready and when the car arrives right up until they drive off into the distance. This will give you comprehensive coverage of all the events and a great selection of shots to choose from!
