Start from the beginning

Make sure you document all the events of your special day. Communicate with your photographer about the suitable time to take pictures. Crowd less images before the event begins. In the early hours of the day, plan to take pictures with friends and important family members

You may want to ask special friends and family members to arrive a little early so you can plan to take these important pictures. Especially, children when they are all dressed up. This can be a very special and fun time, with the chosen colors and traditions, it is also the best time to get these pictures.
