10 Ways to Guarantee Gorgeous Wedding Photos

1. Positioning

In the ideal world everyone would be the same height and weight. That is not the case.  Make sure everything looks balanced and that couples are correctly matched up.  If you are looking to make everyone appear the same height take photos on unleveled rocks or hills. 

 2. Lighting

Photos can be taken during the day or the night.  Depending on the time of year it may be ideal to take the photos inside or outside.  Natural light always adds a nice glow so it is the best option.  Plan your photo locations ahead of time. 

3. Makeup

For photo purposes males may need to put on some cover up.  As much as they may not like it, this will film better.  Makeup is not only for women, as many celebrities must wear it on camera.  Also, make sure all women recently had their makeup applied.  You do not want to have dark circles appearing in any of the photos.

4. No Hangovers

Plan the bachelor and/or bachelorette parties a few days before the wedding.  Many brides and grooms make the mistake of having it the night before.  If participants are hung over they will appear bloated, pale and tired. 

5. Landscapes

Choose landscapes that go with the wedding colors.  If you chose peach as a wedding color try to have photos that include a sunset in the background.  One the other end, if baby blue was the color of choice gets photos by a natural body of water.

6. Romance

For one-on-one couple photos in front of the camera show your romantic side.  Photos are not exclusively for the wedding party.  Chances are one of the photos of the two of you will be on display in your bedroom or living room so make it count.  Have fun with it and show your flirty side.

7. Flowers

Make sure to get photos with and without the wedding bouquets.  The flowers were expensive and crucial so make sure they are photographed at some point.

8. Action Photos

When hiring a photographer, make sure they are ready to take photos of the whole ceremony.  Review their portfolio and make sure they have good action shots.  A great photo is of the bride throwing the bouquet and the bouquet being captured mid throw with anxious arms awaiting its arrival.

9. Black and White Options 

A black and white photo can capture a truly classy moment.  And who doesn't look great in black and white?  You may not want to do all photos in black and white, but see if you can have a few of them produced this way. 

10. Digital Options

I know it seems to only make sense, but you want to have digital photograph options.  Ideally, get your pictures on a disk or flash drive because you know you are going to want to email and upload your photos galore.  Make sure the photographer is not charging extra for this service.
