From the perspective of a photographer or a guest at a wedding, I can conclude that the “burden” of getting the best snaps on a wedding day not only falls on the photographer but on the couple as well. In this article, we will talk about how “you” can help set up the scene and make your wedding shutterbug even more excited about the shooting your lovey-dovey day.
Location! Remember the Location
Location is the strongest catalyst in affecting the outcome of your wedding day. It will make or break the mood. It will create a never-ending impact on the memories that will be cherished beyond eternity. You can control where you want your reception to be helped. Outdoor weddings are amazing, but in case the wedding is in-door it is vital to select a location with a lot of space for natural light to come in.
Plot according to sunset hours
Sunset timings can break the schedule of the photographs dramatically. It is important for all the good photographs to be taken during natural lighting. After the selection of the date and venue of the wedding, the sunset hours for the day should be checked and all events should be planned accordingly. Photographers feel that the best time of the day to shoot is two hours before the sun goes down. At that time, the light from the sun is soft and it imparts a mellow glow to the images.
Prioritize Photograph, Not Wedding Photography Package
A few months from your wedding, when the entire thrill has worn out and the excitement is over, your wedding photos are all you will have to rewind and relive the moments from the cherished day. Do not be a miser when it comes to selecting your wedding photographer. It is advisable to opt for those photographers who have a better style and quality of shooting rather than those photographers which offer cheap wedding packages with a retarded quality of snaps.
Make ordinary ceremonies interesting
Traditions in weddings are old and unbroken, but instead of giving them a same old customary feel couples can alter them according to their will to make them a little less boring and more interesting for the guests. These ceremonies instead of reciting the age old mantras should be altered by the couples to make them even more enticing and beautiful. For example, one can always write their own vows or choose music that gives their wedding a meaning.
The Best Receptions
The reception is the time to flaunt your skills and make yourselves proud. As a bride and groom, you can make the best of your wedding during this time and create an everlasting impression on the minds of your guests. Even if you cannot afford a very expensive music band, it is a wise decision to hire a Disco Jockey. It may be tempting to save some dollars by requesting a friend or acquaintance to use the pause / play button of your iPod, but a good jockey can make all the difference to your Reception.
Remember, A wedding is a once in a lifetime party to show your loved ones who you are as a “couple”. This will be the most cherished day of your life, so stop compromising and start spending. After all, it’s a wedding for a match that was made in heaven!!!
