Our Vision as Wedding Photographers
Day-after photoshoots have become quite common among newlyweds, which is not surprising considering that these photo sessions offer a lot to couples and to us, photographers – we get to spend more time with you alone! A post-wedding photoshoot has become a new way of capturing the most emotional moments you and your other half share uniquely. It is one of the novelties from the trends department that couples have found to be quite practical and more joyful – and there are some good reasons for this! You don’t have the stress of the wedding, nothing to rush you, and you have all the time in the day for intimate romantic moments and creating magic.
What Is A Day-After Photoshoot
As the name speaks for itself, a day-after photoshoot or a post-wedding photoshoot is a scheduled photo session that takes place the day after you get married. This session usually takes place a few days or weeks after the celebration is over, but as your wedding photographers, we need you to tell us in advance so we can prepare
a unique experience.
On the day when a post-wedding photoshoot is scheduled, we will all get together and indulge in some unique, fun, and emotional photography affair. You will choose the location of your own preference and spend time making the mementos you have always desired. It is a more relaxed process. Just imagine, we can play some tunes, throw caution to the wind and even dance in the middle of a street, pop a bottle of bubbly – whatever you like! One thing we know is that we will have an amazing time together.
Because of their laid-back nature, it is no secret that day-after photoshoots have become our favorites. This is especially because they pose so many benefits for both you and us as your wedding photographers. That is why in this blog, we will try to lay out some of them, even though the experience is hard to put into words! In the end, you can decide for yourself whether this is something that entices your romantic soul.
Benefits Of A Day-After Photoshoot
If you are already considering a post-wedding photoshoot, you would naturally like to know the advantages this experience can offer before you decide on having one. To cut the story short – we assure you it is totally worth it! But let us delve deeper into what makes it special.
A Way To Relive The Most Special Day Of Your Life
We know how much time you spend during the planning process since we’ve been with you from the beginning, so when the big day is over, it is normal to feel a little nostalgic. A day-after photoshoot will allow you to
relive and enjoy the magical moments of your union once again. It is an opportunity to bring back all the cherished feelings from the day before and once again enjoy the sensational bridal experience.
The best part? The day-after photo session also allows you to feel enchanting in your wedding attire once again, but without all the stress that accompanied you during the wedding. So, you may only get married once, however this way, you get to relive those iconic moments. Trust us, once you see your partner all dressed up, you will feel the emotions pouring in! It is an excellent opportunity to truly enjoy your intimate time together without worrying about what comes next. In other words, it will give you the amazing opportunity to dedicate a whole day to enjoying each other’s presence and embracing all the emotions these precious moments bring.
Less Stress About These Photos On Your Special Day
You will inevitably feel overwhelmed when you’re supposed to make everything happen in just one day. It goes without saying that your wedding day is about you and your partner, but it is also about your dearest friends and family.
If you opt for a day-after photoshoot, we, as your wedding photographers, will only need you for a short time during the actual celebration. We will only take a few moments of your time in order to eternalize the perfectly arranged setting through the photos.
The main couples photos take way more time than just a few minutes, a time you’d want to spend celebrating with your guests. This is where a post-wedding photoshoot comes in handy the most!
You Get To Pick Fascinating Locations
Only if you could hike a mountain or run through a wildflower meadow on your big day to have the perfect photo backdrop, right?! Well, when you schedule a day-after photoshoot, you get the opportunity to pick the desired locations for creating your couples photos. Be it a mountain, a beach, a meadow filled with wildflowers, or even a grand waterfall – count us in! You will be able to make arrangements with us as your wedding photographers, and have a romantic getaway to your dream place even at a destination outside your country. You have the option to dream big and consider getting the perfect shots at a fascinating location, such as the marvelous Greek islands, breathtaking Italian surroundings, or other stunning European spots.
You Can Embrace Your Creative Side
When the photo session happens on the same day as your wedding, you don’t get the chance to explore your creative side and really enjoy all the precious romantic moments with your partner. But if you devote more time and energy to the photos, you can have some incredibly emotional and touching shots taken. We won’t rush; instead, we will take as much time as you like to get loose and enjoy the candid process. We want you to soak every emotion, and then we will
translate it into photos. Photos that will forever evoke emotions.
We know many couples love elopements, but in the end, they decide to do a traditional wedding. Well, good news, because a post-wedding photoshoot also feels like an elopement, you can experience the magic even if you opted for something different for your special day! To elevate the experience, you can choose a location that you really love and exchange your vows there – in the presence of your photographer. You will have your desired private moment, but it will still be captured in a life-long memento.
Choose The Perfect Time Of The Day To Get Capture The Ideal Light
You probably already know that portraits taken at sunrise or sunset are the best, meaning that you will get amazing results if your photoshoot happens around this time. The photographs look more natural, and they get that dreamy and romantic glow you would want in your photos!
However, capturing flawless light in your photographs is almost impossible when the wedding and the photo session happen on the same day. Even if you have these photos captured around sunset, you will need to get over with your session really quickly. That is why a day-after photoshoot is a lot more convenient!
A post-wedding photoshoot can be truly rewarding for the overall experience of your big day and cherishing more heartfelt memories. If you want to get a stress-free photo session and capture all the genuine and magnificent moments then this is your best option. This is an especially convenient alternative for brides & grooms who want control over every step of their wedding, but also for those who want to freely express their creative side.
