When To Take Bridal Portraits | Boulder Wedding Photographer

Capturing your love in a timeless wedding portrait that will stand the test of time is what we do best! As a Boulder wedding photographer, I understand the importance and magnitude of documenting your wedding day. I promise you’ll receive images reflecting exactly how you felt in those moments. To get the best lighting, emotions, and everything in between, I plan when to take bridal portraits strategically. Let’s get to it!

Take Bridal Portraits Before Your First Look

Documenting your wedding day from start to finish will create an album that tells your story. And the time before your first look will fly by. Whether you plan on seeing each other before the ceremony or for the first time as you walk down the aisle. I’ll make sure we have plenty of time for those emotional moments. About 30 minutes should be plenty of time!

If you are having a first look before the ceremony, those 30 minutes will take bridal portraits. First, we will get a couple of shots of the bride and groom. These portraits will be separate and document the giddy excitement right before your first look. After capturing the actual first look, we will get some Boulder bridals of the two of you together. Then, it will be off to the ceremony.

However, if you choose to see each other for the first time at your ceremony, we will use the time before the ceremony primarily for the bride. We will capture your beauty and grace as you dance in your wedding dress and walk through your venue.

Take Bridal Portraits After Your Ceremony

What happens after you say “I-do” and run down the aisle as husband and wife? Your guests will mingle in their cocktail hour while eating treats and sipping signature drinks. Meanwhile, you will come with your Boulder wedding photographer for a quick photoshoot!

We love the images from right after your ceremony! The giddy nerves have calmed, and the overwhelming joy of being newlyweds is settling in. These Boulder bridals give your wedding album so much emotion and personality. In addition, this is a great time to get away together and have a moment alone before stepping into the party.

Golden Hour

Many couples think this is the best time to have their wedding portraits taken. And we have to agree! The magic of the golden hour is like none other: the glow from the warm sun as it sets, the glimmer of light that plays through the tree lines. Everything about this time of day is dreamy, and we love to make the most of it.
