Stop Trying To Control The Photoshoot
If you successfully followed the last three steps, then there is absolutely no need to interfere with your wedding photographer during your ceremony or reception. Instead, this can actually just create more stress and tension.
Through your vision board and pre-wedding photo session, your photographer has already learned what you want your photographs to look like. So, you just need to relax, savor the moment, and leave them to handle the rest.
And if you fail to do that, you can even end up missing out on some gorgeous candid photos.
Be Patient Post-Wedding
Once your ceremony and reception are over, and you and your new spouse embark on your honeymoon, it can be tempting to immediately ask for your wedding photos.
What couples don’t always realize, though, is how much work goes into editing photos behind the scenes. Most times, there are hundreds if not thousands of images for your photographer to sort through, select, and edit in a cohesive style.
So, don’t rush the process, and remember to remain patient. Depending on the number of photographs and your photographer’s workflow, it could take anywhere between three to 12 weeks to receive your final images.
Don’t Just Opt For Digital
Once your wedding photographs are finally ready to be viewed, it may feel like an eternity has passed since your big day. So, at that moment, you may just want to get digital renderings in order to view, download, and save them immediately.
One of the biggest mistakes couples make, though, is overlooking physical print copies.
