Bride & Groom Portraits time and LOCATION

Reception start and end time

List up to 5-10 "must have" shots for the wedding overall (Outside of what I would normally shoot, something that I may be unaware of), if any

List 5 pre-ceremony formal shots (and names), please be detailed as possible as to not forget anyone. The more done pre-ceremony allows more time for post-ceremony photos and to move on to the reception quickly. Example: Mom (Sharon), Bride (Jasmine), Aunt (Sarah) - the more detailed and well thought out this is, the less chaos and more time you will have on couple and wedding party portraits. I will call out from this list and do family FIRST (either before the ceremony if opting to do a first look, or after the ceremony immediately). This is if you have time BEFORE the ceremony (sometimes you think you’ll have time but there isn’t for these, keep it short and simple!)

List 5-10 MUST HAVE post-ceremony formal shots (and names), note that anyone we don't get here can be done later at the reception on request in person. This list can exceed 5, but note the longer the formal list the less time that will be spent on reception and couple photos - the more detailed and well thought out this is, the less chaos and more time you will have on couple and wedding party portraits. I will call directly out from this list and do family FIRST (either before the ceremony if opting to do a first look, or after the ceremony immediately). If other people and family members start throwing requests , we will let them know we are going only from this list to allow for enough time for other portraits.
