We spend a lot of time talking about the wedding shoes here because we are just in love with shoes. But, for all of you brides looking for other tips around your wedding, here is one that we have for you. Many of us stylists have already gotten married although there are a few that are still looking for their special someone. For those that got married, one of their biggest wedding regrets was not taking specific wedding photos. When going through the photos afterwards, they regretted not asking the photographer to take a certain shot. Some of them had really been looking for that one shot to put up on their wall at home. Others just felt like they should have gotten it later on. So, here are our top 3 wedding photos you shouldn’t forget to put on your wedding photo list.

1. Head to toe photo of you: The first one is a head to toe photo of you. Surprisingly, many photographers forget to do this. They may do this while you are walking or turned to the side, but never a full frontal. Sometimes, they cut off one of the most important items – your bridal shoes! Yes! It’s a tragedy to forget to include the shoes in the photo when your wedding shoes is what makes the outfit complete. But, the one thing many brides were looking for that they didn’t get was a head to toe photo of themselves. Not one with the groom, but just one where you can see everything. This means, you can see the entire dress from top to bottom and all of the delicate beading and lace that goes in it. Also, you can see the head piece you choose and the little dangly earrings that your mother gave you to wear. Finally, you can see those fantastic shoes peeping out from underneath the dress. Whether blue wedding shoes or silver bridal shoes, those shoes complete the outfit and have to stand out.

2. Fun or whimsical photo of you and the groom: The next photo that many brides regretted not having was a fun or whimsical photo of you and the groom. This is one where you might be seen exchanging a secret glance or where the groom is holding you up and you are both laughing. The key to this photo is that it is natural and it captures the two of you at your happiest. Plus, it shouldn’t really be posed, but instead it should be one where you are making each other laugh. Photos that come out the best have something slightly outrageous being done such as tossing the bride up in the air or whirling her around in her dress. Whatever it is, a fun and whimsical photo of the two of you is perfect to preserve the happiness you felt on that day.

3. Shot with a gorgeous background: Although many of you will have this, it may not be the background you envisioned. What we mean is, go to your wedding site and take a look at all of the places you can pose. Then, choose the background that you want to capture. Is it a little nook under an oak tree or the little garden in back? Or, is it the glorious beach and sand? Whatever it is, choose the background that you want and make sure the photographer takes several pictures with that background in mind. Also, ask the photographer to make the two of you smaller and larger. Some of our former brides loved the small picture and the huge background with themselves and their groom while others liked the reverse. Either way, it makes for a fantastic shot to put up and remember your wedding by.
