How to Get the Best Wedding Photos
How to Get the Best Wedding Photos from your Gold Coast Wedding Photographer
There are a million things that you can do to create the perfect wedding picture; stand just a little to the left, head tilted to the right, eyes wide open and smile - boom! There you have it, the capture you thought you dreamed of your whole life; but does it honestly capture YOU? I am not quite convinced.
I want to share how to get the best wedding photos on your wedding day.
We want to capture the perfect YOU; the real, raw you. So, to show you how easy it can be, we have come up our favourite wedding day tips to help you get those perfect wedding photographs.
First things first, BE YOURSELF. Nothing tells a story more perfectly than the little traits that make your love so unique. If you’re soft and gentle and slightly timid, that’s perfect; if you want to jump up and down and sing at the top of your lungs with excitement, that’s perfect too! These tiny characteristics are what made you stand out from the rest to start with, so relish in them! To add to this having a photographer that you get along with, one that your comfortable being YOU in front if is most of the job done.
Don't be afraid to talk and giggle your way through the first few hours of being husband and wife. We are here to capture the raw emotion and the sweet intimate moments – so go ahead, laugh and be yourself!
When we scoot off for some photographs (aka time together) don’t be afraid to take a little direction. While it won’t be the whole ‘smile and say cheese’ type of vibe, we are totally confident in the destination you have chosen for your wedding day and know exactly where that warm soaking sun falls behind the trees and the when those sweet salty waves are going to crash in perfect time (so when we say run, run!).
You chose this magical place for a reason, so enjoy your surroundings. This place will forever hold some of the most cherished memories of your life, those loved up moments when two became one. Take in the scents, enjoy the view just that extra bit longer and frolic amongst the leaves as much as you like. It is these glorious moments we will capture with such authenticity.
Ok, now we have you sorted, let’s get your hubby-to-be just excited as us! It’s not always easy for men to get behind the camera and their idea of getting photos can be somewhat understated so let’s grab a coffee and chat. We can discuss the finer details and even get an engagement shoot under our sleeves to calm the nerves (if you have any) and get to know how each other work so on your day you have complete and utter trust in what we will deliver.
Remember I can not stress enough choosing the right photographer for your wedding day comes down to having the right PERSON their. After all, you only have the wedding photos after the day, so invest in the things that matter and have the right person there.
All in all, this day is about the two of you - So to truly get the best wedding photos, let us capture exactly that – you just dance the night away and leave the rest to us.
