Hi does anyone have a list of must take pictures you give to your photographer?? He's asked for us to put together a photo check list and I just don't know where to being. Thanks for any help.

Re: Must take picture list
I found this one online... but ask your photog if he has one... I would think he has a basic checklist you could take a look at... or you could look through some other girls wedding pics to see if there is anything you like and would want him to get a picture of.
Wedding Photography Shots Before the Ceremony ___ Wedding dress lying over a chair ___ Zipping up or buttoning the wedding dress ___ Mother of the bride fastening the bride's necklace ___ The bride's garter ___ The bride's veil ___ A close up of the bride's shoes peeking out from under the dress ___ Bride looking into a mirror ___ Bride looking out window ___ Bride and bridesmaids putting on makeup ___ Bride pinning corsage/boutonniere on mother/father ___ Bride hugging parents ___ Bride touching up ___ Bride and parents leaving for ceremony ___ Groom tying tie ___ Groom looking into mirror ___ Bride looking out window ___ Groom pinning corsage/boutonniere on mother/father ___ Groom hugging parents ___ Bride and parents leaving for ceremony
Wedding Photography Shots At the Ceremony ___ Outside of ceremony site ___ Guests walking into ceremony site ___ Bride and father entering ceremony site ___ Parents being seated ___ Grandparents being seated ___ Maid of honor walking down the aisle ___ Bridesmaids walking down the aisle ___ Flower girl and ring bearer walking down aisle ___ Groom waiting for bride ___ Ceremony musicians ___ Officiant ___ Altar or canopy during ceremony ___ Close up of bride, just before she makes her entrance ___ Bride and father walking down aisle ___ Groom seeing bride for first time ___ The back of bride and father walking down the aisle – with the groom waiting in the distance ___ Bride's father and Bride hugging at end of aisle ___ Shot of the audience from the bride and groom's point of view ___ The unity ceremony ___ Close up of bride and groom saying the vows ___ Wide shot of bride and groom saying the vows ___ Exchanging the rings ___ Close up of hands ___ The kiss ___ Bride & Groom walking up the aisle ___ Receiving line ___ Bride & Groom outside on steps ___ Guests throwing confetti/rose petals/birdseed ___ Bride & Groom hugging guests, laughing, getting congratulations ___ Bride & Groom getting in car ___ Bride & Groom in back seat

During the Reception (to help your photographer, you may wish to list these shots in the order they will happen at your reception) ___ Outside of reception site ___ Bride & Groom arriving ___ Bride & Groom greeting guests ___ Table centerpieces ___ Table setting ___ Bride & Groom's table (head table) ___ Musicians or DJ ___ Guest book ___ Place card table ___ Closeup of bride and groom's place card ___ Wedding cake ___ Groom's cake ___ Gift table ___ Decorations (specify which _________________________) ___ A shot of bride & groom with guests at each table ___ Bride with college alums ___ Groom with college alums ___ The buffet or, if having table service, a dinner serving ___ Bride & Groom's first dance ___ Bride & Father dancing ___ Groom & Mother dancing ___ Guests dancing ___ Bride & Groom cutting the cake ___ Bride & Groom feeding each other cake ___ Toasts (specify who is giving them: ____________________) ___ Bride & Groom drinking champagne ___ Signing the marriage license ___ Bride throwing bouquet ___ Groom retrieving garter ___ Groom tossing garter ___ Garter/Bouquet dance ___ The getaway car ___ Bride & Groom leaving party ___ Bride & Groom driving away

You are very welcome
I figured you can just eliminate any pictures you don't need/want and then maybe they'll give you ideas for other pictures...

Re: Must take picture list
my photographer only wanted a list of pics she wouldn't know about... I trusted her after looking at her album examples and realized it was better to give her a short list of those unique pics I would only know...
with my favorite aunt with my flowergirls fixing my dress train for me in my preschool classroom at the church in the middle or front of the aisle in the recessional instead of at the end (because you always end up with random under dressed people in the background) I have more if you want.. I didn't want to post them in case they were too specific to me don't want to bore anyone!
