How to get the best getting ready photos: our tips for capturing stunning getting ready moments

Your wedding day is filled with countless precious moments, and among them, the getting ready photos hold a special place. These images not only document the preparation process but also set the tone for the entire day.  We love capturing these candid and emotional moments! Here are some tips to ensure your bridal preparation is beautifully documented and  photos showcase the joy, excitement, and authenticity of your wedding day.

1) Choose a spacious and well-lit room: Find a room with lots of natural light to create a soft and flattering vibe that’ll make you look absolutely radiant in your photos. Trust me, the natural light does wonders for capturing that gorgeous glow!

2) Keep the space clutter-free: Tidy up the area beforehand, ensuring that unnecessary items are stored away. A clean backdrop will provide an elegant and polished look to your photos.

3) Schedule Sufficient Time: plan buffer time for getting ready to avoid any rush or stress. We recommend to have hair and make up ready 1 hour before the wedding ceremony.  By allowing enough time, we can capture stunning shots of you and your loved ones enjoying the process without feeling rushed.

4) Stay hydrated and nourished: Don’t forget to drink water and have some  snacks throughout getting ready. Keeping yourself hydrated and fueled will keep your energy levels high
