Over the years, I’ve helped quite a few of my girlfriends find their wedding photographers. I have found that the hardest part for each of them has been knowing where to start. I thought I’d compile my tried-and-true tips into a blog post. I hope you’ll find them helpful.

After you receive your gallery with my photos, the really fun part starts: selecting your favorite photos, printing them, and putting them up in your home for you and your family to enjoy. It’s always fun to hear how other families are displaying their photos and to gather inspiration from others; read on for everyone’s best tips.

My most frequently asked photography question is “what should we wear to our family photo shoot?” Here is a compilation of my best suggestions as well as a few photos to help you gather inspiration for your own outfits. If you have anything to add, please chime in in the comments! I would love to hear what has worked for your family in the past.
