When I met with Melissa and Mark to talk about their wedding I can not tell you how excited I was! What could get me so excited you might ask? It was their plan for successful photos! What I mean is that they set aside key times that would be essential for creating the photos that hold a lifetime of memories. Sure we do incredible photos in a very short amount of time constantly, but that doesn’t mean they couldn’t be even better! We got them on a package that included two photographers so one of us followed the brides story and the other followed the grooms story. We talked about a “First Look” meeting where only the bride and groom are there and see each other for the first time. Following that would be the full bridal party photos. They even managed to get ALL the family members to show up early and we were able to complete formal photos before the ceremony and get started on time because everyone was there! I heard the bride and groom say several times how they were so happy they did it all before the ceremony. They were so relaxed and you could see it in them. Once the ceremony was over we grabbed a quick group photo with all the guest, a few sunset photos and off to the cocktail hour we all went. Something that does not normally happen when all the photos are done between the ceremony and reception.
