🔑 Keys to a great quick bridal party session 🔑

✨Make your shortlist of photos that you want! Do some research before hand.

✨Send the list to your photographer

✨Don’t get caught up in Pinterest. Get inspired but don’t feel like you have to have every photo you see.

✨Talk to your bridal party before hand. So they know what to expect and so they are prepared

✨ Create a timeline with your photographer or planner and make sure you allow enough time in your schedule!

✨Trust your photographer. There is a reason you hired them.

Your day! Your way! The best piece of advice I can give when planning your wedding is to do it your way. Not how you see others doing it on line but rather in a way that reflects you and your fiancé. Prioritize what’s important to y’all. Let the other little things go. It’s your day. Do it your way!
