How to get amazing getting-ready pics


Getting-ready pictures are a must-have for your wedding day. They're the perfect way to capture those moments that are so fleeting and precious, like putting on your dress, applying your makeup, and getting ready with your bridal party. But where do you start? How do you get amazing pictures without spending hours posing for them?

 

Here's a checklist of the things you'll need to include in your getting-ready shots to make sure they are iconic:

 


• Plan ahead

If you're shooting at home, set up your makeup station so that when it comes time for the shoot, you can focus on getting gorgeous instead of finding a suitable space for the photo.

• Don't rush yourself!

Makeup takes time, and getting ready is an important part of the day. Please give yourself plenty of time to prepare so that you're not rushed and stressed when it comes time for photos.

• Choose an outfit that makes you look and feel beautiful

Wearing something you feel great in will help you relax and look your best in front of the camera.

Use custom cufflinks to compliment your groom's suit as a unique way to add an extra special touch, along with other details – tie, watch, stylish shoes, etc.


• Use natural light

Using natural light will help make your wedding day prep pictures look even better than indoors under artificial lighting. An outdoor space or a room with big windows would work well for getting-ready pictures.


Hire a professional hair and makeup artist

Make sure that they are skilled and experienced in doing professional photography. They should have experience working with lighting, posing, and other technical aspects of the shoot.


• Choose a photographer who you feel comfortable with

This way, you can relax and be yourself in front of the camera, which will result in more natural-looking pictures.

• Pack snacks!

It's hard to get hungry when so many exciting things are going on in preparation for your big day, but if you're hungry, it will show in your photos! Pack plenty of snacks, so everyone stays happy and healthy throughout the day.


• Friends and family can provide a helping hand when needed

You'll want as many hands on deck as possible during the bride photo shoot! And who better than those closest to you?


• Take breaks!

If you feel yourself starting to get tired, take a break. Get some water and give yourself a few minutes to rest. You'll be able to work with more energy and focus if you take care of yourself first.
