A big question when you're considering your wedding day. Do you do a First Look?

More and more couples are opting for a First Look and getting your images taken before the ceremony can have many benefits.


Here are the pros for doing a First Look:


  • The first time you see each other is private and shared just between you two (and me with my quiet, ninja-like camera)

  • You both will look your freshest!

  • The nerves of seeing each other for the first time will be gone and then you can simply look forward to and enjoy your ceremony

  • Helps to ensure that there is enough time for the most important photos (the ones of you two!)

  • You can schedule all wedding party photos before the ceremony, so afterward all the formal images left to take are family photos and then you’ll be able to head to your reception quickly instead of having your guests wait for a longer period of time.

  • This is a great trial run of walking around and moving in your dress before you have to do it in front of everyone at your ceremony!

In the end, it is up to you and there is no wrong way to see each other for the first time on your wedding day. Hugs! ❤️
