As a Boulder wedding photographer, I have noticed that getting-ready photos have gained popularity over the years—and rightfully so! Capturing the essence of the wedding day in photos is a great way to create lasting memories. You can have pictures of the reception and ceremony, but you can remember how you felt as you looked through the photos of the eagerness and excitement of getting ready.

Detail Shots 

We typically take detail shots on the side as you get ready. These include photos of the shoes, the dress, and the ring. These are all the things that are instrumental to getting ready, but before you put them on. The photos capture everything in pristine condition and are staged elegantly. These photos will help you remember the anticipation and how it felt before you got ready.

The best way to showcase the aesthetic of your wedding day is through detailed shots. You can show off your color palette and your carefully chosen items that have a sentiment to you. These items can be hard to spot while taking bridals, family portraits, or reception photos. But you spent much time and effort figuring out what to have at your wedding, so let’s get that on camera!
