A relaxed timeline is the secret behind natural wedding photos. Here is how to plan the day so every moment gets the time and light it deserves.
A relaxed timeline is the secret behind natural wedding photos. When the day is not rushed, you can enjoy it — and that is exactly what the camera sees.
Start with the light. Ask your photographer when the sun sets on your date and plan the couple portraits for the hour before. Golden light is soft, warm and flattering for everyone.
Give every part of the day a little buffer. Preparations, travel between locations and family photos almost always take longer than expected. Fifteen extra minutes here and there keep the day calm.
Finally, make a short list of the family groups you want photographed and choose one person to gather everyone. It saves time and lets you get back to your guests faster.
