Pictures for your wedding, did anyone forgot a lot of pictures they want?

Question

After i got back from the honeymoon I was like oh I should have done that shot or this shot??

Answer 1

Definitely. I really wished that we would have gotten some with just my family. They flew across the country to be there and it would have been nice to have some formal pictures of all of us...plus I wish that I would have gotten more with the bridal party - but what are you going to do?  

Answer 2

Several months after the wedding, my mom and I realized that while we had photos of me and my parents and me and my brother, we had none of me, my parents AND my brother. Whoops! My husband has a large family and we got all of that with them but by the time we got to my much smaller immediate family, we just forgot. It's the only thing I would turn back the clock to have about my wedding.  

Answer 3

Have you thought about contacting your photographer and seeing if they'd be available for 'make up' shots?

Everyone would be a lot less stressed than they were on the actual day and it might could be scheduled at a time when the photographer wouldn't be busy with another wedding.

As a photographer, I would be happy to work with my clients to get all the shots they wanted.

Congrats on the wedding!

Answer 4

Agreed!  I did not have  a bridal portrait.  And only have about 2 portraits of DH & I together.

Answer 5

yeah...but what are you going to do, you know?

The day flies by so fast, the most important thing is that pictures were taken...and you still have a lot to go by.

One of the photos we forgot to do...us with his parents...can you believe it!  We got multiple other group shots that they were in...i.e., us, his parents, & grandparents...but none with just the 4 of us!  I was totally bummed!

then I realized...there is always photoshop...it sort of gives me a sense of piece of mind!  and it made his mom feel better as well.

Answer 6

Yes! My photographer bailed a week before and my bil is pretty good at pictures, and I made a list, but didn't get them all. That's why I tell everyone to make sure they get a good photographer. But, my hubby says just get over it and be happy with what I have.

Answer 7

I'm starting to think it happens to everyone because its pretty hard to get shots of mother father bride groom, mother father brother bride groom, brother bride groom....Okay the point I'm getting to is there's endless possibilities.

I'mm going to tell my photographer to make sure to get lots of pics of me and my husband together because it would upset me the most if didn'tnt have any.

Answer 8

several brides I know have made lists for their photographer, so you get all the family shots and all the candid things you want from the reception or whatever (cake, garter, centerpieces, ice sculpture, etc etc etc)

Answer 9

Yeah... We didn't get any of just the two of us!  DOH!

Or one of the back of my dress!  UGH!
