Avoid

Before the wedding day, have a clear
conversation with your photographer about your
vision, specific shots you want, and any
must-have moments. This will help them understand
your style and preferences.

Meeting your photographer in person before the
wedding can establish rapport and make you feel
more comfortable in front of the camera.

While it may be tempting to cut costs, hiring a
professional wedding photographer is essential.
They have the experience, equipment, and
expertise needed to capture your day beautifully.

Consider scheduling an engagement or pre-wedding
photo shoot with your photographer. It will help
you get comfortable in front of the camera and
build a relationship with your photographer

Lighting is crucial in photography. Be mindful of
the time of day for your outdoor shots, and make
sure the indoor venues have adequate lighting.
Discuss lighting options with your photographer
if necessary.

Create a shot list of specific moments and group
photos you want to capture. This ensures you
don't forget any important shots amidst the
excitement of the day.

backup plan for inclement weather. Your
photographer should also be prepared for various
weather conditions.

While some post-processing is essential,
over-editing or using heavy filters can make your
photos look unnatural. Discuss your preferences
for editing with your photographer.

Designate a family member or friend to help
coordinate group photos. This person can gather
the necessary people quickly, so the process is
efficient and organized.

While posed photos are important, don't forget to
capture candid moments. Some of the most
memorable and emotional shots happen when people
are relaxed and themselves.
