POST-WEDDING SHOOT

I would imagine that it almost goes without saying that when you are shooting a destination wedding, you ought to be shooting a 'Day After' shoot. For one thing, you are in a beautiful location that would be different to the standard wedding venues, and it’s a chance to capture some really extraordinary images. The bride and groom will not likely be rushing off to another location for their honeymoon, so they will be available the following day or so to spend a few hours on a creative shoot. If you are on an island, 'drown the gown' sessions are popular.

Photograph the beach session first and then progress to the sea! Once the couple are wet and wild, there is no going backwards! I’m also a great fan of underwater sessions. You don’t even need an expensive underwater housing for this. I use the Nikon1AW for this which produces magnificent images. If you are in a Tuscan village for example, use the beauty of the surrounding landscape for some beautiful photographs, or even fun images. Hire a donkey! If you’re near a desert, definitely shoot in the dunes and look at hiring a camel. In the mountains, look into the hiring of a helicopter for an hour and capture some spectacular imagery atop a mountain. The sky is the limit and it is advisable to think about all the options possible before you quote for the wedding, so that you can make the suggestions and add these costs to your quote.
