How to Shoot a First Look
Every couple I photograph is as unique as their personalized wedding day. They've chosen a venue to represent their love, a place that embodies the spirit of their union. If they opt to see each other before the ceremony, it's important that I (the photographer) orchestrate an optimal experience for both bride and groom. There isn't, of course, one way to make such a moment happen, but this video showcases the way it unfolded for one special couple.
