How to Look and Feel Amazing in Your Wedding Photos
Your wedding photos will be cherished forever, so of course, you want to look and feel your best. It is not uncommon to feel a little camera-shy or unsure how to pose but, don’t worry—I’ve got you covered! Here are my top tips to ensure you look confident, radiant, and like YOU in every shot.
1. Schedule an Engagement Session
An engagement session is about more than just pretty photos! It’s the perfect chance to get comfortable in front of the camera with your partner before your big day. You'll receive guidance and tips for natural posing, get to know your photographer (hey, that’s me!), and feel more at ease when the wedding day arrives—resulting in more authentic photos of your special day!
2. Choose the Right Photographer for You
Your wedding photographer should make you feel relaxed and confident, not stressed or awkward. That’s why it’s so important to find someone you truly mesh with! Your photographer will be by your side for most of your wedding day, capturing some of the most intimate and emotional moments. Feeling comfortable and connected with them makes all the difference in creating natural, authentic photos. During our consultation, I take the time to understand your vision, vibe, and comfort level so your photos truly reflect you. I want to know your story—how you met, all about the engagement (of course), and I definitely want to see those Pinterest boards!
3. Slow Down, Be Present & Enjoy the Moment
The best wedding photos aren’t just about poses—they’re about feelings. Focus on your partner, soak in every moment (because your special day is going to fly by), and let go of any worries. Genuine smiles and candid laughter always look better than forced poses! Your wedding is a once-in-a-lifetime experience—so enjoy it! The best photos come from genuine emotions, so don’t stress about looking "perfect” (I know it’s easier said than done). Just be in the moment, and I’ll take care of the rest. This is the day you get to start the rest of your life with your person—how special is that?!
