Oh my, you're getting married today!
About a month before your big day, we'll hop on a check-in call to cover all the crucial details, make sure our timeline is on point, and tackle any last-minute changes.
It’s our chance to get on the same page and for you to spill the beans on what you're dreaming of for your wedding photos.
The oh-so-crucial timeline call

Preparing your engagement session
Your engagement session is an ideal time to help you feel at ease in front of the camera before your wedding day (which is super important!!). It’s also an opportunity to get to know each other a bit better, discover your relationship dynamics, understand your vision for the big day, and see how you interact.
Every couple is different, and ultimately, I want your photos to capture the essence of you as a couple, making this session the perfect opportunity to bond before the wedding day!
The best time to schedule your engagement session is typically 8-10 months before your wedding. This allows plenty of time for planning, editing, and using the photos for save-the-dates or your wedding website.
Scheduling during golden hour (just after sunrise or before sunset) provides the most beautiful, soft light. Spring and fall are particularly popular seasons due to the mild weather and gorgeous scenery, but any time of year can be magical!

Wedding vendors play a crucial role in making your big day special. They're a true reflection of who you are and what you love. Collaborating with like-minded creatives is the best way to pull all the finer details together and create something truly amazing.
Finding wedding vendors that are the perfect fit for you means you can truly relax and enjoy your wedding day to the fullest! Over the years, I've had the chance to meet, work with, and become friends with some incredible creatives, and I can't recommend them enough!

Wedding planning & timeline
While I’ll try to document all candid moments during the day, it’s helpful to know any specific groupings, moments, or sentimental details you want included.
These ideas will help you fill out the pre-wedding questionnaire - it’s like a cheat sheet for making sure we snap all the must-have shots in the final wedding timeline, and no one gets left out (not even Uncle Bob's infamous dance moves)!
Wedding photography inspiration
~ Bride getting hair & makeup done
~ Bridesmaids helping with dress/veil
~ Groom getting ready
~ Individual bride / groom portraits
~ Bride + bridesmaids
~ Groom + groomsmen
~ First look with parent's) / bridal party
~ Portrait shots with parents / close family
~ Detail shots of the dress, rings, vows, ...
This is the start of your special day - filled with excitement, a few nerves, and those peaceful moments before the celebrations kick off, all surrounded by your favorite people.
These photos are a beautiful way to document the behind-the-scenes emotion of your day - moments you might not even realize are happening until you see them captured in your gallery.
Ideal time for pictures of:
Getting ready
A first look lets you have a special moment together before your wedding day kicks into full gear. It gives you both a chance to relax and ease those nerves before the ceremony.
But remember, it's totally optional! Many couples still love the classic approach of seeing each other for the first time at the altar.
It helps calm nerves and ease any pre-ceremony jitters.
You get to enjoy a quiet, intimate moment together before the whirlwind of the day begins.
You’ll have more time for portraits earlier in the day (often in better light!).
You can go straight to the cocktail hour after the ceremony instead of taking time away for portraits.
Your hair and makeup will be freshly done and at their best for your portraits.
Wondering whether a first look is for you? Here's why I love a first look:
First look
~ Pre-ceremony photos, guests arriving
~ Groom waiting at the alter
~ Wedding party walking down the aisle
~ Bride walking down the aisle with dad
~ Groom's reaction
~ Exchanging of vows and rings
~ First kiss as a married couple
~ Guests cheering and throwing confetti or flower petals
The moment you say "I do" is really the heart of your wedding day. It's where emotions are at their peak - joy, tears, laughter - and I'll be right there to capture every single one. From the walk down the aisle to heading back up, and all the feelings in between, these are the photos you'll treasure forever.

Sample family & photo list
Bonus CANVA TEMPLATE
Sample photo list
Assign a photo helper: ask a family member or coordinator who knows the guests to help organize and call out groupings during photo time.
Start by listing the 10 most important people or combinations.
Don't forget to include any meaningful relationships that may not fall into the traditional categories (e.g. godparents, chosen family, step-siblings).
Some tips for making your list:
Depending on how big your wedding is, the list of group photos with family and friends can get pretty extensive and take a lot of time. To make sure I capture all the key people, I suggest putting a list together of must-have family and group photos. You can share this with me when you fill out the pre-wedding questionnaire.
Family & Group photos
Some couples love a quiet session right after their first look, while others prefer the magic of the golden hour just before sunset. Depending on your schedule and what you enjoy, we might even do both! I'll be with you every step of the way in planning the timeline, ensuring we catch those relaxed, beautiful couple portraits.
I love squeezing in some extra portraits of just the two of you! This is your chance to step away from the hustle and soak in the joy of being newly married. These images are full of love, intimacy, and emotion, and become some of the most cherished portraits of your wedding day.
When to plan a portrait session
We can capture moments right at your venue - whether it's in the gardens, by a lovely archway, or within a charming architectural space.
If there are scenic areas like open fields, wooded spots, or a nearby overlook around your venue, we can sneak away for a few magical shots there too. I make sure to scout out the best light and locations beforehand so we can truly make the most of wherever we find ourselves!

~ First dance as a married couple
~ Parent dances (father-daughter, mother-son, etc.)
~ Special performances or surprises
~ Bouquet and garter toss
~ Grand exit with sparklers, confetti, bubbles, or vintage car send-off
The reception is a whirlwind of energy, filled with laughter and celebration - seriously, it's packed with epic photo opportunities! From heartfelt speeches to some seriously fun dancing, I'll be right there capturing all those amazing and meaningful moments as they happen.

Once you've filled out your pre-wedding questionnaire, I'll take all those details - like when your ceremony is, travel info, and those key moments you don't want to miss - and craft a custom photography timeline. This timeline will help ensure everything goes off without a hitch, capturing those special moments with optimal lighting and zero stress.

Before your big day, I’d love to learn a bit more about you! That’s why I ask all my couples to fill out a pre-wedding questionnaire. It’s a fun and super helpful way for me to get to know your story, the important people in your life, and the little details that matter most to you.
