Must -take list

When making a 'Must-Take' list for your photographer, did/are you including all the basic photos that they normally take, such as full length picture of bride in gown for the first time?

I ask because I don't want to make this crazy list for my photographer and for him to look at me and say, 'Of course I do this and that. ' I have great faith he will take those 'normal' pictures. What concerns me are the pictures that he might not think about taking. For example, when we get out of church, I want everyone who is there to stand behind us and we all face the camera. FH and I will be front and center. I want us in color and everyone else in black and white. So I know that photo has to be on the list so my photographer takes it!

What are you girls doing?

haha I was thinking of this this morning!

I want to give him a basic list of things like family friends ect.

I also want certain pictures taken with dress, flowers, shoes, ect. I am going to print out some pictures just as ideas for him to look at. I know he is going to do a fabulous job, but I know what you are saying lol I don't wanna look like an annoying bridezilla with photos!

I don't want to tell him how to do his job...and obviously we hired these people because we trust in what they do and their work. So I am not going to be neurotic and give the basic shots that he should know to take. I am only going to give him must takes that maybe aren't on the regular list of normal photos or ones that have a more journalistic feel. He should know how to take pics of me and my family and the shots of me getting ready.
