Clear out all doubts and confusions you have with your photographer beforehand. Discuss themes and locations that you feel will suit your personality along with your partners’. Keep all communication transparent and book dates and venues well in advance. While some couples prefer exotic locations varying from old monuments to beaches,some like to create a story about their first meeting and reliving old memories.
Finalising The Location
It is important to put a lot of thought in the location of the photoshoot. Themes that suit your personality best will make the shoot look larger than life. While some locations don’t require permits and are free of charge others may ask for both – a fee and a permit slip. Always explore your options before settling on something. Shooting outdoors will brighten up your mood as you breath in fresh air whereas indoor shoots present you with options such as themed studios. Some studios give the illusion of night even if it is broad daylight outside.
Go Shopping
When it comes to any type of photoshoot, the biggest question that arises is “what to wear?”. For your pre-wedding photoshoot, your photographer can help you choose the colours and types of outfits that will compliment the theme and ambiance of the shoot. Shoots involve props, so it’s better to ask your photographer about the props to avoid last minute rush.
Book Your Make-Up Artist
Make-up anyways help you look flawless in pictures, so it is essential to search and talk to the MUA. Keep them well informed about your theme, the sort of look you want and location as the makeup may vary for outdoor and indoor shoots.
Be Relaxed and Enjoy The Photoshoot
