Behind The Scenes Wedding Photography.
Here is a rare glimpse of what goes on behind the pretty pictures you see from a wedding. These photos were captured by our good friend Marie while we were shooting Mike and Sherree's wedding.
The top images show how we encourge brides and grooms to look their best, while I shoot from a ladder about 20 feet away. Monica or an assistant will help with a few pointers about posing. The bride and groom portrait sessions usually last about 30 minutes. This is the only time which we actually pose a couple. Some individuals feel uncomfortable with being “posed” however, this is where we often get the best images of the bride and groom. These always become the centerpieces of wedding albums, enlargements and thank you cards of our clients. Actually, this is something we do uniquely different. Our group shots of family and friends as well as the bride and groom portrait sessions are always filled with laughter, jokes and hilarious antics. We specialize in making sure the bride and groom, as well as their guests, are comfortable and relaxed in front of the camera. It can be quite a challenge to handle a camera, pose people, think creatively, work with assistants and be entertaining at the same time! However, it is a part of the job I truly enjoy. When all these elements come together to form images which couples cherish for decades to come its a genuinely rewarding feeling. it's quite common for brides to call us after they've seen their images and be teary-eyed because of the photographs our team has taken. It is a responsibility and privilege we take quite seriously. There is only one time to get these images taken and we have to get it right the first time. No excuses.
Hope you enjoyed this little behind-the-scenes sneak peek into part of the craziness and chaos that is wedding photography in Miami Fort lauderdale.
Have a great day,
