A wedding-day timeline that also works for photos
04 November 2026 · 2 min read
After 160 weddings we know one thing for sure: the day should not be about photos. But three short windows, well placed in the schedule, make the difference between a beautiful album and one you keep opening.
Morning: 45 unhurried minutes of getting ready
We arrive an hour before you are ready. The dress on its hanger, the shoes, the invitation, the perfume: we photograph them while you have your makeup done. Then the dressing, with your mother or best friend. We stage nothing; we only ask that the window be clear and the ceiling light be off.
After the ceremony: 20 minutes for just the two of you
Right after the congratulations, before the reception. It is the moment you are happiest and not yet tired. We walk 200 metres to a spot we found on the earlier visit, and let you be together. We keep our distance.
Sunset: 15 minutes, at the exact time
We tell you the time a week ahead (we check it for your venue). We step out of the hall at that time, however good it is at the table, and come back within 15 minutes. These are the photos you will put on the wall.
What we do not need
We do not need an hour-long “photo session” in a park with a list of poses. We do not need to pull you from the table for group photos in a row: we do them at sunset, with family, in 10 minutes, from a list we prepare together.
If you like, we send you our wedding-day timeline template, in Word, with these windows already in place.
