By James Diore


Brides desire their wedding celebration to be nothing short of perfection. Making this happen includes a lot of preparation time and a fair amount of other people. Everything from the champagne, to the flowers, to the photographs need to be breathtaking. There are plenty of wedding photography tips for brides to ensure her portraits will be absolutely stunning.

The future bride is encouraged to take the extra time to meet with the person who will be photographing the event. Some people are very busy and believe an assistant can take care of this for her. The bride is the one who will be photographed therefore she should be the one the meet with the photographer in person.

Photographer's come in many different ages. Some are rather young while others have been at it for decades. When it comes to photography, age itself is irrelevant. What matters most is the photographer's ability to capture the many different moods a bride may feel on her big day. Both smiles and tears are quite common at both the ceremony and the reception. The bride needs to feel comfortable enough with the photographer to not be concerned with what he or she is doing. The bride needs to focus on herself and her groom.

Photographer's are artists. While they do not paint with a brush or make clay sculptures, they bring together contrasting colors coupled with light and emotions. Pictures can be bold and sharp or dreamy and subdued. Brides are encouraged to relay any ideas ahead of time as far as poses or backgrounds are concerned. Backgrounds make a huge difference in the outcome of a photograph. Studio shots and outdoor shots should both be discussed.

Attitude is the single most important thing a bride can display in a photograph. Anxiety and sadness will shout from a photograph. The bride is encouraged let her true self shine. This could mean to think about the day her future husband proposed, brew up all of the love she has in her heart, or think about the wonderful life ahead of her. There are many ways to help bring out an expression in a picture. Having said this, one of the best ways is to be in the moment. Additionally, the bride does not always need to look into the camera. The photographer will shoot from different angles to form a complete set.

Facial expressions become fake if they are held for too long. Photographer's know this. The goal is to capture the emotion in an instant. This is one reason why numerous pictures are taken. When all elements are right, no other picture can surpass the bride's.

Magazines and the Internet are excellent resources for studying images. Sharing an image or two with the photographer that is well-liked is a good way of creating the same type of picture. There is no shame in mimicking a beautiful pose.

There are many wedding photography tips for brides available. If so inclined, the future wife can study posing techniques from a technical viewpoint. Discussing filter effects such as a soft lens, or creating a black and white picture with a minimum amount of color incorporated should be discussed with the photographer ahead of time. It is very common for people to like more than one style of photography; finding a photographer that is open to different forms can result in outstanding portraits.
