WEDDING PICTURES
OVER 100 "MUST HAVE"
WEDDING PHOTO CHECK LIST
Quality wedding
pictures will bring you a lifetime of memories. Before your wedding day
you will want to give some thought to what special "must have" wedding photographs that you want to be sure are taken.
Many photographers will have a list of suggested wedding pictures as well as albums of
past photos to give you ideas of available wedding photo style options. Once
you have determined the "must have wedding photos", make a list, make a copy
of the list for the photographer and go over that list
with your
selected
wedding photographer (and include it as an attachment to the photographer's
contract) to make sure all of the special moments of your wedding day are
properly captured.
In
addition to the list below, there may be other special people that you will want
to make sure that photos are taken of - either with the Bride and Groom or not.
Be sure to make a list of those people and determine when the best time to take
those photos might be.
Below is a list of
over 100 "Must Have" wedding pictures.
