Q: When should formal wedding pictures be taken? A: Photography session timing is up to you. Here are the options: Before the ceremony: This is our favorite, but it's out if you two don't want to see each other before the wedding. More and more couples choose to spend preceremony time alone, but this can also be a great chance to take family and wedding party pictures when everyone is excited and fresh.
Between the ceremony and reception: This is probably the most popular option; the newlyweds and wedding party gather at the front of the ceremony site and take pictures while guests wait outside or travel to the reception for cocktail hour. Fingers crossed it's overcast! It's not the end of the world by any means and an experienced photographer will be able to deliver the goods, but I would so much rather shoot bridal party photos as late in the day as possible.
Ideally in the two hours before sunset. So check what the sunset time is on your wedding day, check the time of your ceremony and what time are you serving dinner, then plot it all out.
If you're getting married in the height of summer, the sun might not set until 9 or 10pm, so it wouldn't really make any difference would it?! And you can always sneak out of your reception for a few sunset snaps if you're really keen! It's kind of nice after the ceremony, the congratulations, and the flurry of family group photos, to be able to nip off for photos with your bridal party, share a bottle of champers, and just take a little time out with your new spouse to go 'We totally got married!
On the other hand, photos taken after the ceremony or even the reception can include the gorgeous sunset light and provide a breather from the busy wedding festivities. All the best with your wedding planning! Sarah from Sarah McEvoy Photography has seen many wedding in her time as a professional wedding photographer and has a few valuable thoughts on the subject.
Modern weddings are all about creating your own traditions and molding your wedding day to fit your personal values and desires as a couple. If you count how many photos a couple would like during the day, those minutes add up quickly. How should that factor into things? Kelly: I know from experience that photographers love when the clients want to do the First Look — this is great for them, as it allows them ample time to get all the shots they need and not rush through a list of photos in 45 minutes.
Sonia: Photographers are always wanting, needing and asking for more time. I make it my priority to map out a day that allows for the proper amount of time to give to the photographer to do their magic and not have the bride, groom, families and wedding party feel as if we rushed them throughout the entire day just to get a photo taken.
Photographers love when I can give them at least 20 minutes for the First Look and 30 minutes post ceremony with just the bride and groom. Tell us: What did you do for your wedding?
