CAPTURE THIS MOMENT PHOTOGRAPHY “Backup equipment is crucial so ask your photographer if they have this. You don’t want them turning up on the day with only one camera body. What happens if a strap breaks and the camera falls to the ground before the ceremony has started? Do they have multiple lenses incase they are needed? It’s also worth enquiring how they back up your images and finally, what happens if they are ill?” - Kathryn Book Kathryn: 07816 477 243; https://capturethismoment.co.uk; www.facebook.com/Capturethismomentphotography; www.instagram.com/capturethismomentphotography LIBBY CLARK PHOTOGRAPHY “Be aware of the skills needed for photography at your chosen venue. If there isn’t much natural light available, you’ll want to see a portfolio from the photographer showing their experience of using flash in dark venues. Go with your photographer’s instincts about the best places to have the photos taken around your venue and feel free to make suggestions too. Embrace the weather, even if it’s raining - some of the best shots are those taken in the rain.” - Libby “Set a realistic budget and if money is tight, ask your photographer about booking a smaller package, mid-week prices or research one who is building up their portfolio in addition to having a full-time job. Don’t be scared to limit your formal group shot list to 10 or less. Trust me, your photographer and guests will thank you for this, so will your cheeks when they ache! Tell your photographer if there are people you are particularly keen on having photos of, for example, an elderly member of the family because it’s not always possible to get a photograph of everyone there.” - Libby Book Libby: 07835 936 885; www.libbyclarkphotography.co.uk; www.facebook.com/libbyclarkphotography; www.instagram.com/libbyclarkphotography CARISSA AT CAPTURE EVERY MOMENT “Lighting is key when it comes to taking stunning photographs. If the Great British weather isn’t on your side and it rains heavily during the portrait photographs, ask family members to be on hand to shield you from the downpour! Despite any rain, fog and cold, it’s still possible to venture outside for a photograph. Trust your photographer’s judgement which will guarantee some fantastic shots.” - Carissa Carissa and Paul were the talented snappers behind our real wedding of Daisy and Alex shown here – turn to page 24 to read all about it and to see the real wedding of Ben and Alun, also shown in these images, download our previous issue at: www.yourgloswilts.wedding/previous-issue/2139 Book Carissa and Paul: 07521 611 678, www.captureeverymoment.co.uk, www.facebook.com/CaptureEveryMomentPhotographer, www.instagram.com/cem_photographer PHOTOGRAPHY 49
