You guys know I LOVE capturing all of those little wedding day details that you’ve carefully chosen to be a part of your big day! These little details are such a big part of your love story.  They showcase your personalities and style.  The very first thing I’ll do when I arrive is get to work capturing all of these details.

So, what am I referring to when I say ‘details’?

• Wedding dress
• All three rings
• Ring box
• Jewelry
• Heirlooms
• Shoes,
• Veil
• Perfume,
• Full invitation suite
• Bouquet
• Boutonnieres
• Keepsakes (Ryan wrote me a post card from Paris in college, so I included that special keepsake in our wedding details.  Feel free to include items that are special to you and your significant other!  A couple years ago, one bride, Haley, had a stack of letters her husband sent her while he was deployed.  It made the for the sweetest picture)

Often times, brides will put everything into a shoebox or gift bag for me so I can quickly grab it and not have to bother them over and over to ask where things are.  This is also the time when I will photograph your dress.

One way to take your wedding day details to the next level is to have your florals ready to go when I arrive!  Ask your florist for some florals.  Loose florals are such a quick way to really give your wedding day details that extra “Pop!” They will tie all of your details together.

It’s especially helpful if you have an extra, clean invitation on hand for me to photograph.  I always ask brides to send me an invitation before the wedding, but always have one with you on the wedding day.  Sometimes I like to photograph with two invitations to add more color and interest to the image!

I hope this helps you prepare your wedding day details for the big day!  Did you know know I send all of my couples an entire wedding day guide with even more information on what to gather for their details?
