What are the most important photographs on your wedding day? As a Boston wedding photographer, the shots that need to be captured on any wedding day are always at the forefront of my mind. These can be broken down into several categories and it is important that a balance is achieved in all of these.

Let’s start with the preparation shots. Not everyone opts to have shots of themselves getting ready before their ceremony, but this has become far more popular in recent years. This is, after all, a big part of the day and there are some great emotions that can be captured during this part of the day. The girls have their bridesmaids bustling around, helping get their dress and veil just right, and the guys are with their groomsmen, trying to figure out how to attach a boutonnière, with the best man re-reading his speech for the nth time. There are nerves, excitement, the occasional tear, and capturing the last few moments before they become man and wife often produces some classic photos.

Then we have the ceremony itself. Boston weddings can take place in a variety of locations, and the churches and venues here ...
... in New England are indeed stunning. This part of the day is obviously full of very special moments in it: the bride’s arrival at the ceremony, the groom ready and (nervously) waiting for his bride to be at the end of the aisle, and my favorite moment, the first time the groom and his bride see each other. Some additional must-have shots are the father walking the bride down the aisle and handing his daughter over to the groom, the ring exchange, the first kiss as husband and wife and the newly married couple’s recessional after the ceremony are wonderful shots to have, but so are the emotions shared by the parents and other family and friends at this very special time. With quick reflexes it is possible to capture all these memories.

Next we have the group shots. These are sometimes played down these days and at times can be considered a little outdated at times. These are important shots, though, and rarely will such an occasion arise that you will have so many family and friends that mean so much to you in the same place.

Shots of the bride and groom together as husband and wife make for some of the most memorable (and most printed) photographs of the day, so you want to make sure that you set aside enough time for these. Boston wedding photographers can be spoilt for choice when it comes to locations for these shots. Whatever the location though, shots of the bride and groom together will always be a special remembrance of the day and their love for each other and these shots should reflect that.

Finally comes the feasting and celebrations. You are with your guests and are now able to kick back, relax and enjoy their company. Candid shots here can capture the great relationships that you share with all that are attending your big day. Important shots to nab as well are in the small details. Place settings, flowers the room, everything that you have poured your time and careful planning into over the course of your engagement. The rings, polished up and new, may be borrowed by the Boston wedding photographer to capture them up close. Also, don’t forget the cake, the cutting, and then the bride and groom sharing the first bites.

Last, but by no means least, comes the dancing. This provides great shots with everyone getting into their favorite songs. Whether you and your guests are completely unaware of the camera or playing up for it, you can be guaranteed that these will provide a source of pleasure for years to come afterwards.
