the family combinations you want to capture, and
allocate specific time slots for each group.

family members in each group. This will help the
photographer organize and move through the
sessions efficiently.

style you're aiming for.

huge help in keeping things organized.

of bad weather.

at its bestusually during the "golden hour"
around sunrise or sunset. Avoid midday when the
sun is harsh and shadows are strong.

that match the overall theme or color scheme of
the wedding. This will ensure a cohesive look in
the photos.

and enjoy the process. Genuine smiles and natural

interactions between family members.

if things don't go exactly as planned, and remain
flexible if adjustments need to be made on the
spot.
