What to pack in your details box

Mar 11

You have spent so much time planning every detail of your wedding and I am excited to capture it all. Here are a few things I would like to photograph on the wedding day. It would be best for me if this was all in one location all in a box.

Get a box about the size of a large shoe box. This is where you will put your invitation, your rings, the ring box, shoes, tie, perfume, etc. This is so when I show up, I can just grab that box and start shooting a few flat lays and detail shots!

Delegation is key to success

If you can, assign someone to have this ready on the day of. These pictures are the first I will take when my team and I arrive. They are taken before the getting ready pictures. All these details should be together, make a plan to have the rings together. Assign the Maid of Honor or Best Man to get the rings as soon as I am done with the detail photos.
