Wedding Today!

I'm off to Ivy Hills Country Club today to shoot M&J's wedding.  The morning has started out chilly, but I'm hoping for a warmer day!  Luckily, it looks like we should be in the 60s today with a clear night.  Sunset is due around 8:00 - important at a place like Ivy Hills.  There's a great opportunity for a gorgeous sunset shot on the 10th hole. 

These are the things I always check before any wedding.

A few weeks before any wedding, I try to meet with the Bride and Groom for a pre-wedding session.  It's our chance to talk about the wedding and schedule for the day one last time.  I don't like to pester the Bride and Groom during their special day.  If we get all the questions answered beforehand, then things usually run smoothly, and I can be unobtrusive and almost invisible at times.  I love when a couple tells me that they forgot I was there but can't believe all the fabulous photos I got! 

I'm off to get my bags all packed and ready to go!  And at the end of the month, I have M&D's wedding in Loveland - can't wait!

Just an FYI...when you're deciding on a photos for your wedding, make sure that you write down exactly what pictures you want taken at your wedding. Give that list to your photographer and stick with it! You don't want to miss those most important pictures on your special day."

Good point, Jennifer, thanks for bringing it up!

That's exactly why we have a pre-wedding session before your big day!  We use that time to go over your wedding checklist (if you're using one), review the schedule one last time and discuss any last minute details.  It helps ensure that everything runs smoothly - so important shots aren't missed.
