I personally love a bridal session! It gets brides comfortable with me and in front of the camera before their big day! It also helps them decide which poses they like and don’t like, and gives them more time to focus on taking photos with their partner on their wedding day!
Here is a recap of our Instagram mini series for bridal session tips and tricks!
Embrace the details! Capture the intricate lace and stunning accessories that make your bridal look unique.
Choose a location that reflects your personality. Whether it's a garden or a cityscape, your backdrop sets the mood.
Timing is everything! The golden hour provides the most flattering light for those dreamy bridal portraits.
Practice your poses in advance. Feeling comfortable in front of the camera will help
you shine on your big day.Bring one person with you so they can help with little touches like holding your veil or hyping you up! More than one person can get too hectic though so try to limit who you bring!
Work with your florist and have them create a version of your bouquet for your photos! This brings the look to life!
Schedule your hair and makeup trial for the day of your bridal session! This also helps the look come to life and helps you decide if there is any changes you need to make before your wedding day.
Stay hydrated and rest well the night before. You want to feel your best during
your session!Incorporate personal elements into your shoot-family heirlooms or meaningful locations make your photos even more special.
