By using this wedding photographer shot list you can be confident that all the important posed family pictures are taken.<\/h2>\n

If you are reading this, chances are you are a bride or groom looking for help with your wedding photography. \u00a0Maybe you are a photographer, who has never shot a wedding before, and you are concerned that you may miss an important family or bridal party photo.\u00a0\u00a0 You may be a wedding planner, who is looking to help your photographer by making sure he or she doesn\u2019t miss any important posed pictures. \u00a0 No matter what your situation, I hope you find this article useful.\u00a0\u00a0 In this article I will provide a complete posed wedding photographer shot list. \u00a0I will include all the posed pictures that are required when photographing a wedding.\u00a0 I will also talk about the photos that are nice to take, but not required.\u00a0 In addition, I will talk about the additional pictures you should take when the bride and groom decide to do a \u201cFirst Look.\u201d\u00a0 I will review each photography sequence, and give some helpful tips as well as important information about photographing weddings.\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0At the bottom of this article, I will include a list that you could copy and paste into a document to take with you on the wedding day. \u00a0This article on a wedding photographer shot list, does not include all the other pictures that photographing a wedding requires. \u00a0Wedding pictures such as, the rings, the getting ready pictures, the ceremony photos and the reception pictures are not included. \u00a0This article is only about the required posed pictures. \u00a0While it’s true that some couples only care about a photo-journalistic photography approach. \u00a0As a South Florida wedding photographer, I love photo-journalism and believe it is an important part of wedding coverage. From my experience I have found that almost all of my clients care deeply about the posed family pictures. \u00a0I know this, \u00a0because I have found that the one posed family picture that is missed, is the one that a client will ask about. \u00a0In my wedding photography world, getting all the required posed pictures is critical. \u00a0If a wedding couple tells me that they don’t care about posed pictures, I make sure I have their request in writing. \u00a0 Doing posed pictures at a wedding will take time. \u00a0This is time that needs to be factored into the wedding timeline.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

When I\u2019m photographing a South Florida wedding, or any wedding for that matter, I consider that there are two sides to the photography.\u00a0 One side is the creative side.\u00a0 It\u2019s the creative side of wedding photography that makes most people want to become a photographer. The creative aspect of a photographers work is almost always what potential clients notice first. \u00a0When couples hire a photographer it\u2019s usually the creative side of the wedding photography that influences the sale.\u00a0 The other side of wedding photography is what I call the, staying out of trouble side. \u00a0The stay out of trouble side refers to not missing important posed pictures. \u00a0I’m sure I speak for many many wedding photographer when I say, “I can’t get too excited about photographing groups of people standing in a line.” \u00a0However, being a fantastic wedding photographer means that you need to strive for excellence in every aspect of wedding coverage. \u00a0This means that all the posed pictures I take look great. \u00a0I pose everyone, and make sure everyone in a group looks as good as possible. \u00a0If I see someone holding a cell phone in their hand I’ll nicely ask them to hide it. \u00a0 Yes, I shoot fast, and I pose quickly, but I get the posed pictures done with everyone looking as good as possible. \u00a0I also shoot several photos of all my groups. \u00a0This way if an eye is closed, I could replace the eye with the same eye from another photo. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Bride

During a wedding, family and friends come together for an event that doesn\u2019t happen very often.\u00a0 Some of the family members have not seen each other in many years.\u00a0 It\u2019s an opportunity to get pictures of friends and family in a situation where everyone looks their best, and is at a beautiful location.\u00a0 This is where the stay out of trouble part comes into play.\u00a0\u00a0 As a South Florida wedding photographer who has shot well over 1000 weddings, I can tell you first hand, if you miss an important family picture you will hear about it.\u00a0 In addition there are so many different family and bridal party posed portrait combinations that it\u2019s easy for something to get missed. \u00a0This means that the appropriate amount of time must be dedicated for the posed pictures.\u00a0 Look at it this way, if someone hires a great photographer to cover a wedding and that photographer does a, just ok job taking artistic photos, the client may say something to the effect of, the photographer was just ok, they covered everything and they were nice, but we were not so impressed.\u00a0 However, if the photographer misses an important posed family photo, \u00a0you can bet the photographer will hear about it.\u00a0 \u00a0To put it simply, when it comes to a clients regard for their hired photographer, if the photographer doesn\u2019t produce artistic images, it\u2019s a problem. \u00a0However if the photographer misses important required posed pictures, \u00a0it\u2019s a disaster!\u00a0 Of course this depends on who you ask.\u00a0 Artistic pictures are a matter of opinion, but missing a posed picture is something solid.\u00a0 My photographer missed X photo and they left town. \u00a0I won’t see them for years. \u00a0 Being in business for over 25 years I have heard from parents looking to hire a wedding photographer.\u00a0 At our other daughters wedding the photographer we hired missed X and X and X.\u00a0 This comes up often when parents or a couple is meeting with me for the next family wedding. \u00a0\u00a0Of course you want your photographer to get it all.\u00a0 artistic and posed pictures. If you follow the information in this article on creating a wedding photographer shot list you won’t miss any important posed family photos.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Wedding
Bride with Mom, Bride with Mom and Dad, Bride and Father. Some photographers don’t break down the posed family photos to this extent. If your ok with your South Florida wedding photographer only shooting one large group family photo lots of posed photography time could be saved. I have found that almost all of my clients (Especially Parents) are looking for family groupings such as this.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

As a professional wedding photographer, the end result should be, to have all the required posed pictures, and still have plenty of time to take the artistic pictures as well.<\/span><\/p>\n

Before we start to talk about a wedding photographer shot list, \u00a0we should talk about the picture taking process.<\/span><\/p>\n

Way before the wedding day, \u00a0it\u2019s critical to create a really good wedding photography timeline.<\/a>\u00a0 The timeline needs to take into account how much time is needed for all the pictures. If you factor in one hour for family pictures, and it turns out that the bride and\/or grooms families give you a personal family shot list that is four or five pages long, you as a wedding photographer are going to have a big problem.\u00a0 If you plan on a photography start time of 2:00PM and you arrive for pictures on time, only to learn that the hair and makeup people have not arrived because they are stuck in traffic or are coming from another wedding that ran late, then you also have a real problem.\u00a0 When a wedding photographer is faced with \u00a0time crunch. They or someone will need to decide, do I cut the artistic photo time? Or do I cut the posed picture time?\u00a0 Maybe you could take make-up pictures during the reception?\u00a0 From experience I can tell you that shooting make up pictures during a cocktail hour, or during a reception doesn\u2019t make many couples happy.\u00a0 Just married couples would much rather enjoy the cocktail hour which they paid for, instead of taking make-up pictures while everyone else gets to enjoy the cocktail hour.<\/span><\/p>\n

So let\u2019s get started.\u00a0 In this article I\u2019m going to include important information to help your photographer avoid problems along the photographic \u00a0journey.\u00a0 At the bottom I\u2019m going to give the photo shot list that you could simply copy and take with you on the wedding day.<\/span><\/p>\n

Before we start, \u00a0let\u2019s talk briefly about equipment and prepping for the wedding.\u00a0 First equipment, I always bring at least two camera.\u00a0 I\u2019m not talking about one really good camera and a not so good camera as a back up.\u00a0\u00a0 I shoot with two main cameras.\u00a0 While each camera may be a different model they are both actively used during the wedding.\u00a0 If one breaks, I can simply use the other camera which is already in use.\u00a0 Having to switch to an inferior camera in the middle of a wedding is a very bad idea.\u00a0 I also bring several flashes or strobes, along with extra batteries and a charger.\u00a0 Just remember this, if you only bring one camera to a wedding, \u00a0it is going to break.\u00a0 This holds true for every photo assignment.\u00a0 Even if you are shooting an easy portrait shoot, or an engagement session, bring two.\u00a0 I actually bring three or four cameras to each wedding.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Posed

In regards to memory cards, every wedding photographer has their way of handling memory cards.\u00a0 I\u2019m not saying my system is the only system, however after years of experience I have determined that the best system for me, is to shoot to two cards at the same time. Most professional cameras accept two memory cards at the same time.\u00a0 On other words, they have two card slots. \u00a0\u00a0I shoot raw plus .jpg\u00a0 The raw files are shot to one card and the .jpgs go to the other card.\u00a0 My memory cards are kept inside a card wallet and each card has a sticky placed on the card.\u00a0 The idea is that, the sticky gets removed and discarded before the memory card goes into the camera.\u00a0 This way you can\u2019t accidently insert a used card, or shoot images over the used memory card by mistake.\u00a0 In my experience I have found that memory cards are very dependable.\u00a0 If a card is damaged or if a photographer looses images, \u00a0it\u2019s usually do to miss-use by the photographer.\u00a0 As humans we sometimes make mistakes, having a set system to protect a the photographer from human error is the best thing you could do.\u00a0 The memory card wallet stays with me in my pocket.\u00a0 My card wallet also has a cord that attaches to my belt.\u00a0 By wearing the card wallet I know the wedding images will remain safe if your camera gear gets stolen.<\/span><\/p>\n

Always leave extra early when heading to the wedding venue, it\u2019s best to arrive at least one hour early.\u00a0 This will give you plenty of time to do a venue walk through before the wedding.\u00a0 During the walk through you can figure out shooting locations for both posed pictures and creative pictures.<\/span><\/p>\n

This article is about providing you with a workable wedding photographer shot list. \u00a0\u00a0When writing this I felt that it was important to spend some time talking about my wedding prep and time management.\u00a0 A shot list means nothing if the photographer doesn\u2019t have enough time to cover the list. \u00a0\u00a0Going forward I\u2019m not going to talk about shooting techniques, lighting or camera settings.\u00a0 \u00a0I\u2019m also not going to talk about all the pictures that you need to take during the getting ready pictures, ceremony or reception.\u00a0 This article is about the posed pictures as well as some ideas for artistic pictures.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 So let\u2019s get started.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Fun
Shooting fun pictures like this is a great way to break up the posed pictures while getting one more unique images.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

After I have been on site for a while and I\u2019m ready to start photographing I will locate the bride and groom.\u00a0 Normally they are found in separate rooms.\u00a0 Often the bride arrives before the groom and the bride hides away in the bridal suite.\u00a0 I spend my first hour photographing the bride and her girls getting ready for the wedding.\u00a0 At this time, make sure to photograph the bride mother helping the bride get dressed.\u00a0 This is a great time to get creative.\u00a0 I also track down the groom and take pictures of him getting ready as well.\u00a0\u00a0 I\u2019m going to assume that the bride and groom are doing a \u201cFirst Look\u201d this is when the bride and groom see each other for the first time.\u00a0\u00a0 For more on the \u201cFirst Look\u201d check out this article.\u00a0The First Look<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Once the bride and groom have seen each other, \u00a0I usually spend about one hour photographing the couple together.\u00a0\u00a0 Keep this in mind.\u00a0 When the bride and groom have their first look, the tendency to spend all the time doing pictures of the couple together.\u00a0 \u00a0As the photographer, make sure you tell the groom,\u00a0 \u201cstep aside\u201d while you take pictures of the bride alone, then tell the bride to \u201cstep aside\u201d while you photograph the groom alone.\u00a0 You could also take pictures of the bride with the groom in the background, and the bride with the groom in the background.\u00a0 Get creative. \u00a0If you think ahead, as you should, take pictures of the bride alone before the first look, and also photograph the groom alone before the first look.<\/span><\/p>\n

Next move on to the wedding party pictures.<\/span><\/p>\n

The standard wedding party pictures include, the bride and her girls, the groom and his guys, and the wedding party together. \u00a0Check out the wedding party pictures on the wedding photographer shot list<\/span><\/p>\n

Should you photograph the bride with each bridesmaid?\u00a0 \u00a0This is going to take some extra time. \u00a0\u00a0I always ask.\u00a0 The same goes for the groom and each groomsman.<\/span><\/p>\n

Once the wedding party is finished I move on to the family pictures. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0I follow a sequence starting with the Bride and her Mother<\/strong>, Then it’s Bride and her Father<\/strong> and next Bride with Mother and Father.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\"Family
Bride with Mother, Bride with Father, Bride with Mother and Father. If you follow a sequence you won’t miss an family members.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

After I have the parents covered I move on to the siblings. \u00a0At this point I photograph the Bride and her Brother, \u00a0Bride with her Sister, \u00a0and Bride with her Siblings. \u00a0<\/strong>It’s important to get all the siblings photographed with the bride.<\/span><\/p>\n

If the bride or groom have parents that are separated or divorced.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

This could be a tricky situation.\u00a0 I always ask way before the wedding date who is in the family.\u00a0 I specifically ask, are there any stepparents?\u00a0 Then if there are stepparents my next question is,\u00a0 Does everyone get along?<\/span><\/p>\n

When shooting stepparents make sure you photograph the following.<\/span><\/p>\n

Bride with Mother and Stepfather<\/span><\/p>\n

Bride with Father and Stepmother<\/span><\/p>\n

Bride and Groom with other relatives.\u00a0 As a photographer, you are not expected to know who all the other relatives are.\u00a0 It\u2019s a good idea to ask in advance about other important family members and guests.<\/span><\/p>\n

If there are step parents,\u00a0 photograph the following.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Bride with Mother and Step father<\/span><\/p>\n

Bride with Father and Step mother<\/span><\/p>\n

If the wedding ceremony \u00a0is taking place in a church, there is a good chance the bride and groom won’t want to do a first look. \u00a0This is perfectly ok as long as there is a long gap of time after the ceremony. \u00a0Some of the church weddings I have photographed have a 3 hour time gap between the end of the ceremony and the start of the cocktail hour.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
