The Wedding Information Form
Thanks for your help!
We're sorry to have to give you homework, but this is the easiest way to get the information we need to do a great job for you! We know that every wedding is different, and this form might not fit your day exactly, but please fill out the information to the best of your ability. Travel times don't need to be precise, but it is helpful to have a rough estimate. If necessary, we will give you a call a day or two before the wedding to talk it over, tie up any loose ends and finalize the plans. If you don't hear from us, you can assume all is well!
Family Photos
About Family Photos
To keep the family photos as streamlined as possible, on Wedding Day we try and only work from this list. We suggest you discuss this with your families beforehand to determine if there are any photos they'd like done. There are no limits to the groups except time, with each group taking 3-5 minutes. Also, be sure to let everyone know to stay after the ceremony!
Standard Groups
Below are the standard family group photos that we would take, if we didn't get any input from you. This standard set usually takes 30-45 minutes to complete, depending on the number of people in each family, the ease of arranging the groups, etc.
Of course every family is different, and these groupings may or may not apply to you. And of course, none of these photos are mandatory! Please feel free to modify or delete any of the groups.
Adding Groups
Please feel free to add any additional group photos to the list. We will announce the groups as listed here, so please be descriptive if you think it will help!

Creative Photo Locations
About Creative Photo Locations
Please provide us with any locations you'd like to use for your creative photos (Bride & Groom portraits, Bridal Party portraits, etc). Only one location is required. Usually, due to time constraints, it is only possible to do two locations. Of course, in our opinion, the more variety the better, so if you'd like to work in a third location, just let us know! If you need help with ideas, please just give us a call!

About Creative Photos
You don't need to choose or list sepecific shots for the creative time, Heather and I prefer to pull from our repetoire on a case-by-case basis. That said, please feel free to add any ideas, must-have shots, etc to the information and photo request sections below.
