Don't avoid them, embrace them!
We’ve all seen them, those awkward wedding photos that make us laugh and cringe at the same time. In a day where couples want to capture every perfect moment of their fairytale-like wedding ceremony and reception, there are sure to be a few shots gone wrong. Instead of trying to avoid them, take the time to embrace them as part of your special day! Funny facial expressions, uncomfortable poses, wardrobe snafus, and other unexpected catastrophes can make for truly unique photos you’ll treasure long after your big day has passed.
Dont be afraid to laugh and make the photos awkward!
There is no denying the power of a genuine laugh or an energetic dance. These special moments should be captured and celebrated, whether goofing around with your friends or having a romantic evening with your partner. They provide an opportunity to express joy and create lasting memories in a very natural way. So don’t panic if you want to burst into laughter! Not only will capturing these precious moments make for some beautiful photographs, but it will also allow you to relive those happy feelings whenever you look back on the images.
Try to stay relaxed in front of the camera
Don’t let the camera intimidate you! One of the best ways to ensure authentic photos is to stay relaxed in front of it. Being at ease will appear in pictures, even if you make mistakes. Professional photographers often embrace flaws and try to capture moments as they happen naturally β worrying too much about making a mistake can lead to a stiff, uninteresting image. So take a breath and remember that whatever comes out of your photo shoot will be unique and add to your photo’s story.
