4 Ways to Take Wedding Photos Without Mistakes

Photography is one of the most important parts of your wedding day. After all, when the day is long gone and faded somewhere far into your memories, it will be your photos that help remind you of all the small special moments throughout the day. Of course it's important that you find a talented photographer who has experience and knows how to shoot special events, but there are still things you can personally do to ensure you have a great set of photos. Here are 4 tips to keep in mind when you say "cheese."

First, you're going to want to spend a good amount of time with the photographer and get to know her well before the actual day. Obviously you'll speak with her a few times, or get a referral to her, before you select her, but there's a lot more you can do. Talk with them and get a good idea of what they're expectations and suggestions for the day are. Go over a lot of their photos with them so they can tell you what worked and helped, and what didn't, from previous weddings they shot. Finally, have at least one shoot with the photographer before the shoot. Posing for a shoot right before the wedding with the whole party is a good idea, as it will loosen you all up and work through any problems that might come up later. Wedding photographers are very practiced at what they do, but unless your party is filled with models, most people can benefit from some structured practice.

While you're at it, talk with your photographer about the best way to pose for your photos. While a lot of women have plenty of practice taking photos of themselves and their friends, few have any real experience with a professional whose job is to make them look elegant and gorgeous. At the very least you should have your photographer show you some pictures and explain the poses that they have the brides to be in. Best case is having a formal rehearsal a few days before the event itself. Go to your photographer's studio either with your dress or similar formal wear, and have them give you a crash course in elegant posing.
