Hey there Lexington Kentucky lovebirds! Kat here, owner of Kat’s Photos LLC and today we’re focusing on preparing for the unexpected, specifically when Mother Nature decides to shower blessings in the form of rain on your special day. Conveniently it seems to be a downpour outside today, so it’s a great day to talk about rain on your wedding day. It’s important to have a backup plan – rain or shine.

Hey there Lexington Kentucky lovebirds! Kat here, owner of Kat’s Photos LLC. In today’s age, where smartphones are everywhere, the concept of an unplugged wedding ceremony is gaining popularity. Consider asking guests to refrain from using their phones or cameras during the ceremony. This will help your professional photos not be obstructed.

Hey there Lexington Kentucky lovebirds! Kat here, owner of Kat’s Photos LLC. Consider having a first look before the ceremony. It’s a special, intimate time for photos and can help reduce pre-ceremony nerves. If you don’t want to do a first look, consider a first touch or reading private letters to each other. I will make sure you don’t see each other!

Hey there Lexington Kentucky lovebirds! Kat here, owner of Kat’s Photos LLC. Make a list of group shots you want, including family and friends. Having a list will keep the day flowing. I require a shot list to be turned into me at least 1 day in advance, 3 days if possible.

This is a great activity to do with your mother and mother-in-law. They will help you remember to get a shot with your Aunt Sally you haven’t seen since you were a child.

How do you write a shot list? No worries, I have an example below!

Hey there Lexington Kentucky lovebirds! Kat here, owner of Kat’s Photos LLC. Plan your schedule to allow plenty of time for photos. I help all clients with timelines and have a timeline meeting prior to the wedding. In this meeting we will discuss your photography requests, final details, and of course create the perfect timeline. I always recommend coming with an idea of what you want the timeline to look like and having your order of events written down. If you have a wedding planner/day of coordinator I love bringing them along!
