We belong to the new school who get ‘butterflies’ in our stomach viewing prewedding photos. Years back, this was not the norm. The goal was to get married, with two families bonding and coming together to form a union. Now, there has been a lot of changes. No wedding seems complete without the taking of prewedding photos.
The good news is that it does not necessarily have to be expensive, but the couple should have something to hold onto before their wedding proper. Prewedding photos unleash creativity. They also tell a story probably of how the couple met. There are many underlying stories behind prewedding photos, so it is not a bad thing or wasteful investment.
Perhaps you are looking for a good place for your pre-wedding photoshoot, these are 5 ideas for finding venues for your shoot:
1. The place of proposal
Don’t just do the classic good spot, make it symbolic. How about the place of your wedding proposal?
2. A strategic place
You can choose a place that means something to both of you. It could be the cinema, a restaurant, or a place that has played a key role in your relationship.
3. A posh restaurant/hotel
Hotels or resorts serving as good backdrop also helps to tell a story. You don’t need to stand in a spot and just take the pictures, if allowed move around and make use of the beautiful setting.
4. Museums, conservation centres, and monumental places
The ambiance of conservation centers makes it my personal favourite. They provide the wildlife story to it. Museums also give you that old feel and antiquity, like you want your marriage to be.
5. The beach
There are so many places on the beach you can use-the water, the sand, the cabanas or sheds, the playground, on a yacht or boat if you want. The Beach also provides a nice background to your shoot.
