What to expect during your wedding day
from a photographer / videographer’s perspective
Your wedding day is one of the most important days of your life, and the photos and video of this day are what you’ll cherish for years to come. As wedding photographers and videographers, we aim to capture the raw, natural, and unstaged moments that took place in your special day. Here’s a breakdown of what you can expect during your wedding day, from a photographer and videographer’s perspective.
A Calm and Comfortable Start: The Getting Ready Moments
Your wedding day typically begins with the getting ready moments, and this is where the intimate nature of the day truly starts to show.
This is often when the bride, groom, and their closest family and friends experience those first emotions and moments of excitement. Whether it’s a natural shot of a bride buttoning her dress, the nervous excitement of the groom adjusting his tie, or the laughter shared with your bridal party, these are the unstaged moments that we love to capture.
Our goal is to make you feel comfortable and natural during this time, and we’ll aim to blend in as much as possible so that everything remains raw and authentic. This part of the day often includes candid shots, and we’ll make sure to capture the emotions and atmosphere of the moment.
First Look and Pre-Ceremony Photos
If you’ve decided to have a first look, this can be one of the most emotional and intimate moments of the day.
You may want share this moment not only with the groom, but also with your father, bridal party or anyone, really.
We’ll typically take a few minutes before the ceremony to capture this moment, where you’ll see each other for the first time in your wedding attire. We’ll be there to document the raw reactions — whether it’s a tear, a smile, or a simple moment of silence as you take each other in.
We’ll also take some pre-ceremony portraits of the two of you alone or with your bridal party, if you wish to, in a way that feels natural and true to your personalities. The idea is to let the photos unfold without forcing anything — the intimate, unstaged moments are always the most memorable.
Ceremony: Capturing the Heart of Your Wedding Day
The ceremony is often one of the most important parts of the day, and as your photographers and videographers, we’ll focus on capturing the natural emotions as they unfold. From the moment you walk down the aisle to the exchange of vows, these are raw, emotional moments that are impossible to replicate. We don’t want to interrupt the flow of your ceremony — we want to document it as it happens.
You can expect us to be there quietly, taking both wide-angle shots and close-up details so that you have a complete visual story of your ceremony. Whether it’s the subtle glance you share with your partner or the natural tears in your eyes, we’re capturing those memories in the most intimate and unstaged way possible.
Reception: the joyful, unposed moments, fun, dancing and emotion
Once the ceremony is over, the celebration begins! During this time, we’ll capture candid moments as your family and friends congratulate you, offer well wishes, and celebrate your new union. the focus here is on the raw joy and excitement that comes after saying “I do.” This is when you can expect us to capture the most natural and intimate moments — hugs, laughter, and the candid interactions between you and your loved ones.
We can do group shots if you expect them, but we’ll keep things unstaged and let everyone interact naturally, ensuring that we capture everyone at their best — whether it’s a family laugh or a moment of tenderness.
The reception is where the energy is high, and the fun begins. Here’s where we get a chance to really capture the raw emotions of the day, from the first dance to speeches, cake cutting, and all the dancing that follows. Expect a mix of natural interactions between guests. Whether it’s the joy in your grandparents’ eyes during your first dance, or the laughter shared during speeches, we’ll be there to capture it all.
As your wedding photographers and videographers, we strive to blend into the background, letting you and your guests enjoy the moment while we document everything. The goal is always to capture the intimate, raw, and unstaged moments that truly document your wedding day.
The final touches: Delivery and memories to last a lifetime
Once the day is over, we’ll get to work sorting through all the incredible moments we’ve captured. As we edit the photos and video, we aim to preserve the natural beauty of the day, ensuring that every intimate moment is highlighted. We’ll provide you with a final collection of images and videos that show your wedding in the most authentic way.
