Your photo will probably taken almost every second of the day when it comes to your big day so you better get comfortable in front of the camera. It's a great day to have beautiful, professional photos of you and your new husband on one of the most important days of your lives. But it's also a time to get plenty of photos with your friends family, and of course, the bridal party.
Your bridesmaids will be with you from the moment you 'pop the question' right up to when you walk down the aisle (and for a while afterwards to make sure you eat). It's important to enjoy the day with them and get in some specific girl time to enjoy and get in some lovely bridesmaid photos in.
Sure, there will be plenty of shots of you with the bridesmaids and the groomsmen, as well as just you and the girls and you with your chief bridesmaid, the list of posed shots are endless. But there are so many more options to you with your bridesmaid photos and there are plenty of important moments with them that you should capture - or at least make sure your photographer knows to capture them.
Everything from the moment your bridesmaids see you the first time on the morning of the big, to them helping you getting into your dress, to the first glass of bubbly in the morning. Your wedding day is a special day for your bridal party as well as you and your husband-to-be, so be sure to take some bridesmaid photos, and don't be afraid to get creative and have some fun; after all, you'll only be doing it once.
