The following Wedding
Pictures Guide is intended to illustrate the most common pictures taken
during Weddings. There can be several variations to each picture, but
we thought important to use the most traditional or classical ones
to serve as a general outline or guidance of what a professional wedding
photo shoot should include.
We’ve split the Wedding Day in 4 segments and added an optional after the wedding
event, they appear in the order most used in Destination Weddings: |
 |
Getting Ready
Pictures
Pictures of the bride getting ready and interacting with the
members of her entourage are on the must-have list. Shots of the groom
together with the groomsmen getting ready sometimes are difficult to
take because of logistics, preference is always given to the bride. In
such case, pictures of the groom and groomsmen right before the ceremony
spending time together could do the job.
 |
The
Ceremony
This is it: the main event. Everything that happens during the Ceremony
will only happen once, so the wedding photographer has to make every
shot count. Procession of the Bridal Party, Groom waiting, Bride
and Father walking down the aisle, Unity Ceremony, exchange of Rings,
The Kiss and The Couple’s exit are amongst the pictures that will
tell the story of what came to pass in that special event.

After The Ceremony Portraits
The time
between the ceremony and the reception is often the only time available
to get pictures of the couple with their Family, Friends, Wedding
Party and other important Guests. After these pictures are taken
all the attention focuses on the most important people of the day:
the Bride and Groom. A full session of pictures of the Couple in
different poses and locations within the surrounding area takes place.
 |
Reception
Finally it’s
Party time !!! The serious part of the day for the Couple is over
and their goal is to share the joy they are feeling with their Guests.
The photographer’s main objective is to take wonderful images that
convey both the look and feel of the festivities. Bride and Groom
arriving, First Dance, Wedding Cake, Toasts, Guests Dancing, Bouquet
throwing, Garter tossing, silly happenings, etc… these pictures will
make you relive all the joy you experienced in your very special
celebration.
