Why Detail Wedding Photographs are essential

Detail wedding photography is essential so many reasons.

Your wedding day is almost here and your wedding photographer just sent you a message asking for you have your rings, perfume bottles, flowers, invitations and so many more things ready for them when they arrive at your venue. You might think, why is this important? I would rather them take pictures of me hanging with my bridesmaids?

First, there will be plenty of pictures of you and your friends hanging out. Second, your wedding photographer has allotted specific time for the detail shots. As for why your detail photos are important, here are 5 reasons:

1. You’ve worked so hard planning a theme and a color pallet for your wedding. You’ve scoured antique shops, malls and Etsy and spent a minor fortune on all of the details to make your wedding day perfect. Why wouldn’t you want to capture all of that hard work on film (or data as it were)?

2. Detail photos will help to tell a complete story of your wedding day.

3. Detail wedding photography tends to be an artistic representation of your vision. You’ve visualized it and now your wedding photographer has turned your vision into something solid that you can print and hang on your walls or gift to friends and family.

4. The details are what drew you in to the wedding photographer in the first place. Sure you thought their portrait photography was amazing, but someone eases face was in those images. When you look at detail photos from a wedding, you aren’t seeing a stranger’s wedding. You’re envisioning your own wedding and what it might look like when your wedding photographer is done.

5. Lastly, detail photos will help future brides and grooms to plan their own wedding. I know it doesn’t have anything to do with you and your day, but doesn’t it make you feel good that you can inspire so many other people with your vision? You could inspire a whole generation.
