First looks are one of my all-time favorite events, they reduce stress from the day, help the groom settle down, and capture an emotional moment up close.
Here are my thoughts on why first looks are amazing;
Better photos
Even though I'd love to, we can't get as close as we want at the ceremony and usually can't capture that first moment seeing each other perfectly, a first look gives us the ability to capture every second of it in the right lighting, the right location, and lastly from the right perspective.
Stress-free day
Every bride who has ever been stressed has only wanted one thing – to see their soon-to-be partner and vent. A first look lets you too relieve the stress before walking down the aisle and then talking to all your guests.
More couple photos
If there is one sentence that will always haunt me from weddings it's "I want a photo with the bride", I say this because the day is about the couple, yet most of the photos of them have guest after guest shoving their way in.
The first look gives us time to highlight the stars of the day and get those great looking couple shots without any guests lingering in the background.
