Re: HELP PLEASE. MUST TAKE PHOTOS!

i didnt give a list, just said we need some shots with our family.

Other than that try not to make it TOO long. You want to point out certain things that cant be forgotten such as people and things to take pics of but you dont want your photographer all night to be concentrating on a list. Let them capture your wedding as its happening. You want them to capture the real moments happening and look back and remember that moment for what it was not a re-enactment.
