It is only logical to want to have great photos, but the trick behind having perfect photos is far from easy. Judging by the fact that you will already be overwhelmed with the ceremony and reception itself, it will be utterly hard to pose for hours and follow your photographer to remote locations to get idyllic photos you desire. Luckily, there are a few rather nifty tips you can try to help you ease your worries and splendid results you are after.
Wedding Photography Tips (How To Look Good)
Do copycat poses
Search the internet, go through wedding magazines, or simply look at some celebrity wedding photos and try to mimic their poses. That’s right! Do the traditional copycat routine where you would (if necessary) spend hours posing in front of the mirror with your fiancée trying to look gorgeous. It is perfectly okay to practice celebrity poses and use some other people’s wedding photography ideas to have dazzling photos.
Strive to look flawless
One of the secrets to looking perfect on your wedding photos is to be satisfied the way you look. This means choosing the right wedding dress, doing up your hair to suit your gown, having sensational make-up, your nails manicured, and wearing your birthstone gem. Unique jewelry you own like the precious moonstone gem can make you shine more and look spotless on the photos. Discover all the details about it and ensure that the photographer takes the photo of your beautiful ring.
Get matching outfits
Matching outfits has become trendy nowadays, and they even make great concepts for a wedding photoshoot! Consider getting personalized satin robes for your bridesmaids. Not only do they look great in photos, but they’re also very practical. Your bridesmaids can wear the satin robes while having their hair and makeup done, and they can also take the robes home as a lovely souvenir. Even after the wedding, you have your personalized satin robes as a mark of your sisterhood.
Be spontaneous
Spontaneity is what distinguishes couples form one another and by being your real “self”, the photographer can capture amazing photos of your mutual love. Sometimes standing stiff and trying to follow some tedious procedure and unrealistic poses can be extremely daunting and the end result may be disappointing. Let the photographer take photos of you simply walking, holding hands, and talking to each other. Be natural, be yourself, and even step out of your comfort zone, and you will get five mesmerizing photos out of five hundred basic ones.
Select the ideal location
For a fabulous photo session, you should choose a spot where you both feel comfortable and which reflects the love you are feeling towards one another. For some that are a local pub, your backyard, family’s farmhouse, riverbank, or a city park. The environment and the location play a vital role in the portrait photo, so do your homework and choose some great locations with your photographer in advance for the portrait session.
Laugh out loud
A bride and a groom should never forget to smile, however faking a smile to get a good photo is a big no-no. Let’s face it, flake smiles are not flattering, plus if you don’t relax your face you won’t be able to avoid double chin and then you’ll have an even bigger problem. Loosen up, joke around and literally laugh your heart out and even smile with your eyes. The photographer will able to capture your real natural laugh when you have fun and ease up the tension.
Show your glow by getting a good night’s sleep and organizing everything in time. Don’t look at people around your just focus on the person you are going to spend your life with, and you will surely get superb photos.
