Why You Should Prep for Your Wedding Day Photography

A common mistake many brides make is not creating a wedding picture list. Not sure what that exactly is? The Bride Link and Ben Moser from Knox Wedding Creative are here to help! Your picture list is simply a list of shots you want your photographer to capture on your wedding day. A picture list includes specific poses you want, beautiful backdrops at the venue, time of day (golden hour), bridal party groups, etc. It's so important to discuss these ideas with your photographer during the planning stages.

Great photographers like Knox Wedding Creative know to ask their couples precisely this beforehand. Ben joins us this week on The Bride Link podcast to share his valuable insight!

In this digital age, it's so easy to see a picture once on your phone, forget it, and never look at it again! Wedding album designs that make layflat photo books beautiful and engaging are becoming increasingly popular with couples. Wedding album printing and professional photo books help relive some of the most incredible moments you'll experience.

Displaying your printed picture or photo album makes the images more likely to be viewed, and more often. If you keep all your event or wedding shots exclusively digital, they can be permanently lost or deleted if not backed up properly. We also already spend so much time looking at our computer, phone, and TV screens. 

Treasured memories deserve only the best. Bringing together exquisite materials and bespoke designs in a physical collection of images can be stunning! Create albums about your entire event or albums that focus on you and your...
