DETAIL PHOTOS (1 HOUR)
The Dress
Typically we will start with taking your wedding attire somewhere with nice light to hang and photograph. If you have custom hangers please let us know!
*Do you want a custom hanger for your dress?*
The Details
After we photograph the outfits we’ll start with your details! We suggest putting together a bag or box prior to the wedding day containing all the details you'd like photographed. This way when we arrive you won't have to run around to find everything and possibly leave something important out! We would love if you are able to have both yours and your fiancé's details and we can bring them back to them when we are done.
*Have your florals delivered by the time we arrive so we can incorporate them in your detail photos. Bonus- ask the florist to leave a few snips of florals they're using in your bouquet! We love using extra florals to incorporate into the flay-lays.*
What To Bring
HERE ARE SOME IDEAS ON WHAT TO BRING FOR YOUR DETAIL PHOTOS

PREP PHOTOS (1 HOUR)
Hair & Makeup
About an hour has passed since we arrived and we've completed all the photos of your details. At this time everyone else should already have their hair and makeup completed and your hair and makeup should be just about done. We suggest having your hair done before your makeup, as makeup prep usually photographs better. We may get shots of your stylist actually working on your makeup, otherwise we may just stage these shots so we get the perfect photo without getting in your artists way.
*CONSIDER A ROOM WITH LARGE WINDOWS FOR THE BEST LIGHTING*
Bridal Party "Robe" Photos
If you and your party have matching robes we can get a photo of you all before everyone gets dressed! Consider bringing matching cups for mimosas or even confetti for an awesome group photo.
*we recommend that you are the last one to have your hair & makeup done and get dressed to ensure everyone else is ready for photos when needed*
Getting Dressed
Finally, it's time to get dressed! Again, we recommend everyone get dressed before you so they can look good in the photos, helping you with your finishing touches.
Wait until after you have your dress on to put on your jewelry, shoes, garter, veil, etc. It's common to assign some important people to help you with these tasks to create special moments during this time.
*WHO DO YOU WANT TO HELP YOU ZIP YOUR DRESS? who will PUT ON YOUR SHOES, JEWELRY, VEIL?*
Dress Reveal
If your bridal party or special family members have not seen you in your dress, you may want to set up a dress reveal!
*LET US KNOW IF YOU'D LIKE TO DO THIS & WE'LL SET IT UP FOR YOU*
Grooms & Groomsmen
About 30 mins to an hour before the first look, the second shooter will go to the other partner to shoot them getting ready. We'd suggest you and whoever you'd like in photos with you be fully ready by this time.
finishing writing vows, someone significant (like a parent) putting on the boutonniere, groomsmen helping with the tie or just hanging out together!
