The wedding day by nature is bound to have a few unexpected happenings. To help things run as smoothly as possible, it is imperative to have a wedding day timeline. Although a photojournalistic approach is taken during much of the wedding day, adequate time needs to be set aside to photograph the details, portraits, wedding party, family groups, and romantics of the bride and groom. (to name a few)
Another important aspect in planning your timeline, is an awareness of the light! In other words……..what time is sunset? Some important questions to ask yourself are: How does the sunset time correlate with your ceremony time? How much time will you have post ceremony before you lose the light? How much time do you want to spend post ceremony on photography before heading off to enjoy your reception? Are you (the couple) willing to see each other before the ceremony for photographs?
All of this in more can be discussed during the planning process, as a well thought out timeline will help you and your photographer to stay focused on your priorities and create beautiful images!
