Let me share some tips for getting everyone together for those awesome family photos on your big day. Things to do:
- Make a list of people you want to include
- Let people know in advance
- Allocate a family member or friend assist in gathering people
- Figure out the best time and location
First things first, consider making a list of the people you want to include – it could be both family and friends or just family. Some couples go for a large group photo with everyone, while others prefer separate sessions for friends and family.
It’s essential to have a chat with your family beforehand so everyone knows when these photos are happening on the day. If you’re into pre-wedding getting ready photos, it’s a fantastic chance to capture candid moments with your family and grab some posed group shots while everyone is feeling fresh.
Usually, this part of the day unfolds after the wedding ceremony, with couples preferring to keep the family photography session conveniently close to the ceremony site. I’m here to help you discover the best spot nearby and meets your needs perfectly.
To keep things organised, creating a list of different groups is a great idea. Consider having a family coordinator or liaison to help gather everyone and make sure no one gets missed in those special portraits. Ultimately, with a bit of planning and teamwork, the family portrait session can be a breeze and add to the joy of your wedding day! 📸💍
