WEDDING HIGHLIGHTS: Cast – supporting roles family, friends and…..

Family group photos are always expected but rarely used, however, they are very important to both families. We discovered when one of our clients had a sudden death in the family and the photographs of that person during our client’s wedding helped the family get through a very difficult time.

The problem is that after the ceremony everyone wants to get on to the party and it becomes a real challenge to coral all the right people. If family and group photos happen prior to the ceremony it is less likely that family and friends will drift away. All this aside, we work to make the photos go fast and most importantly be fun for all concerned.

WEDDING HIGHLIGHTS: Cast – the girls

Regardless of when the bride and groom see each other we always photograph the girls and the boys before the ceremony. If the couple are not seeing each until the ceremony, our time with the wedding party is usually when we encourage each group to relax and have fun. The more we can accomplish that the more relaxed everyone is during the ceremony.

While the ceremony is the whole point of a wedding assuring our clients of our best photos is often dependent on church policies. Depending on the strictness of said policies we often will position extra cameras in unobtrusive locations to capture the ceremony from other angles. Cameras are set up to remotely trigger from my cameras, in much the same way I cover a sports event. All of that aside some of the best shots are of the kids who are in the wedding party. .. somehow they just think the whole thing thing is about them!
