MUST-GET shots for photographer????

Does anybody have that list of the 'must get' shots for the photographer? I saw it floating around here a few weeks ago, and can't seem to find it anymore.

THANKS!

Is anyone not doing the 'getting ready' photos? I feel kind of self-conscious about some of them.

I don't think I am doing them with my photographer but will have my camera ready & waiting. I am getting my hair & makeup done at home then putting my dress on at the hall!
