Now, back too today’s episode.
As a wedding photographer, it is important to be prepared for anything and everything. Wedding days can be unpredictable, so it is important to have a timeline that is flexible enough to accommodate any unforeseen circumstances.
The first thing you need to do when creating a timeline is ask your brides a few simple questions to get the foundation of the timeline.
-What time will the ceremony start?
-How long is the ceremony?
-Are you doing a first look?
-Where are you and the groom getting ready?
-When will the reception start and end?
-Is there anything else that I need to know about your?
Once you have the answers to these questions, you can start to fill in the blanks.
I typically start with the ceremony time and go from there. if you want to hear an example of a timeline for an 8 hour day and you want to hear a breakdown of those times listen to todays episode.
