Destin Photographer’s Photo List

As a Destin wedding photographer I will surprise you by telling you a “bridezilla,” makes my job easy.  Why or how you ask?  A bridezilla is a bride who is in control and knows what she wants.  Through all her lists and clear communication she can make her expectations clear to all the wedding vendors involved.  This avoids misunderstandings and mistakes.

Being a Destin wedding photographer I love to receive a must have photo list.  It is very common for the day of the wedding to be hectic and with a hard copy of must have shots I can rest assured that I can be certain not to miss anything.

Below is a great tool for any bride to implement as a template to personalize and update to secure those timeless moments that will be captured as a keepsake by a professional wedding photographer.

Colleen and Jon by 30A Photographer Jeffery Patrick

We Meet Colleen and Jon at the Sandestin Resort Beach last week.  Colleen and Jon have us scheduled for their wedding later in the year.  The couple was so much fun to work with!  We photographed them on the beaches of Destin to give them an idea of what working with us was like.  We kept the session very laid back and very fun as we all laughed and moved from pose to pose.  Colleen posed several of the photos herself as she knew what she was looking for.  With this couple we did more of a posed photo journalistic style, showing them how to initially pose, and then capturing their expressions as they talked to each other, kissed, and laughed with each other.
