CHAPTER EIGHT

Do’s & Dont’s

Do

  • Remember to take a deep breath, today is a celebration of your love story, so soak up every moment of joy and excitement.

  • Create a photo timeline for the day to make sure we capture all the special moments.

  • Write down a list of all the family group shots - send to me in your questionnaire before the wedding.

  • Write down any specific photos your would like - send to me in your questionnaire before the wedding.

  • Holla whenever you want a photo of you or you with a group.

  • Gather all the accessories you want in your detail shots and have them ready in the morning.

  • Bring your wedding invites, and I'll make sure to capture them for you.

  • To make sure everything runs smoothly, tidy up the getting ready location before I arrive - nominate someone to help you with this.

  • Make sure the reception area is well-lit to get the best shots possible.

Don’t

  • Get caught up in trying to please everyone else. Remember, this day is about you and your partner. It's okay to say no to certain requests or traditions that don't align with your vision.

  • Worry about the photos—I got you.

  • Stare at the camera—just be yourself and pretend I'm not even there, except for group and posed shots.

  • Forget to eat and drink water throughout the day. You want to have enough energy to enjoy the day and make it through the long haul.

  • Feel like you can't take breaks and recharge. It's a long day, and you'll need some downtime to rest and reflect.

  • Be afraid to delegate tasks to trusted family members or friends. You don't have to do everything yourself, and it's okay to ask for help.

  • Hesitate to reach out to me about anything.
