Wedding Photography Poses

Wedding Photography Poses Tailored to the Couple

Before the shoot, do some thorough planning. Study the couple’s style and personality to be able to customize each scene, setting and pose as naturally as possible. This will prevent awkward expressions and gestures. For the bride and groom, assign them to practice smiling and advise them to warm up with exercises that actors use to loosen up any tension in the body and face. For instance, some exercises include pursing lips and moving them in a circular motion, as well as massaging and stretching.

A photographer can be one of the most important components of your wedding day. When friends or relatives volunteer to take your wedding pictures, think long and hard about it. A professional will thoroughly understand lighting techniques and will be experienced in capturing the joyous occasion. Interview photographers early, at least 6 – 12 months in advance.

Determine your budget clearly at this meeting. Be sure you understand exactly the quantity and size of prints you will be buying, when proofs will be available and if you get to keep them, the type of proofs provided, when the finished work will be ready, and how long the negatives will be kept in the photographer’s filing system (if they’re not given to you).

Remember, price is not the most important item – look for quality and creativity. Also make sure that they will respect the sacredness of the ceremony and not turn it into a “show” (i.e. some photographers disregard this and take flash pictures during the ceremony or walk up and down the aisle just so they can get the best pictures).
