- Mix it up
Have your photographer take different kinds of shots. Unusual angles or fuzzy focus can add interest to traditional photographs. Zoom in so close on the wedding cake you can see the texture, or photograph the bride and grooms hands as they talk at the reception table.
In addition, candid photos are often taken by guests at the reception tables. These provide a delightful complement to the more formal compositions of a professional photographer.

When it comes time to place your photos in a wedding album, arrange them so their varying size and style will add visual interest to each page.
- To color or not to color?
Many of today’s brides are having their photographer snap both color and black and white photos.
Black and white images provide a classic, timeless look. This traditional approach focuses in on your faces and expressions of love without the flashy distractions of color.
Color adds a liveliness and reality to photos and can preserve a more accurate record of how your day really appeared. After all, you don’t want to have spent all that time anguishing over your wedding colors for nothing! Get the best of both worlds by combining the two approaches.
- You (usually) get what you pay for
“PAY MORE FOR BETTER PICTURES, you'll kick yourself later if you don't. We paid more, but they turned out great!”
--Erin, wedding date: July 8, 2000
This does not mean you cannot save money on your photography budget, just remember not to cut corners on the quality of images. Once your wedding day is over, you will be left with your memories and your photographs. Make sure you have the best.
