Preparation
Preparation

Having an hour of preparation is ideal for our style. During this time, we are getting close ups of the makeup and hair being applied as well as the candid moments and the bridesmaids and groomsmen get ready for the day. Keep in mind that these are some of the most emotional and fun times of the day, so you don’t want to cut it short. The lead shooter will be with the bride while the second shooter will be with the groom. While it doesn’t take guys an hour to get dressed, there are still tons of great moments during this time between the groom and his family and friends that our wedding photographer can capture.

Rings, Dress, Shoes and Other Details

Having at least 30 minutes for details ensures that we have plenty of time to get that perfect photo of the dress, rings, shoes, bouquets, and the other details of the day. There are times when a hotel room is too crowded or simply unappealing; we have to take the dress all the way down to the lobby or even outside. This can take some time, but as you can see from the results, it’s well worth the additional work.

 


Ceremony

Please allow 30 minutes for the second shooter to take pictures of the ceremony site, completely set up with no guests or vendors in the area. Before you have the guests seated,  it’s important that we are there to capture the complete set up of your ceremony site so we can capture the scene at its best.

Formals

Formals should take around 30-45 minutes to depending on the size of your family and the number of guests. Plan on 3 minutes per group on average.  We also recommend being very organized, with a list of groups and helpers from each side of the family to help round people up.

Couples Session

Couple session should be around 1 hour and should take place ideally 30 minutes before sunset. The is the best time in terms of lighting. It also allows us to capture the awesome scenic shots with colorful skies. Let Pink Diamond Weddings capture for you that spectacular view of the ocean or the gorgeous vines in the winery.
