You’re Getting Married!

Wedding Questionnaire

Hey there. Your big day is drawing near and it’s time to talk details. (Short version: I need the deets!) The more I know about your big day, the better prepared I can be so I can nail your wedding photos.

Just fill out the form below and submit it to me within the week. If you don’t know an answer just yet, that’s ok! Just let me know when you find out.

I hope your wedding planning is going smoothly! I’ll make sure the photography part will be a breeze.

(If there’s something we already discussed that does not apply, just skip it)

PART THREE

FAMILY FORMAL SHOT LIST

List each combination of family members you want in each photo. This way, I can have a checklist to work from and we won’t miss anyone. Make sure these individuals know to stick around and they are part of the photos. Remember, we will be getting creative shots of just the two of you and you and your bridal party at a different time, so don’t worry about those for this part. There will be another section to add any other specific shots you want.
