pre wedding shoots

There are many advantages to having a pre-wedding photo shoot with a couple before the wedding day.

It provides a great opportunity to get to know the couple a bit more and to see how they interact with each other and with us. Every couple is different and the way they respond to each other during the shoot gives a good idea of the kinds of shots that will work on the big day. Some couples are playful, some dreamy and romantic, some are less tactile, but most reveal just how much in love they are...

It also provides a chance to find the best angles to use with each individual and helps to make the couples feel confident that we can make them look fabulous. Most couples start out being a little bit self conscious but after an hour or so they really relax and start to enjoy being photographed.



Doing the shoot at the venue allows us to run through the ceremony details and timings with the couple and plan where we will each be at various points to ensure that we cover the day as well as possible. We can check out the light and plan some of the formal shots... It also allows us to take shots of the venue if the weather is good in case the light or weather is bad on the day.

One of the most important things it provides is a chance to get to know each other a bit more which always makes the relationship work much better on the wedding day. We have quite a laugh during the sessions and find them invaluable to ensuring that we do our job well.
