AFTER-WEDDING SHOOT
When we talk about an after-wedding shoot, we mean portrait photography of the newlyweds on a day other than the wedding day. In practice, it’s a couple’s shoot in wedding dress and suit, done outside of the wedding schedule. If you feel that your wedding day should be about you – about joy, laughter, and the people you love, and not about stepping away for a two-hour photo session, then this option might be the perfect fit for you. There are plenty of advantages to doing it this way. Let’s take a look.
More calm, more joy
An after-wedding shoot gives you space to slow down. The wedding stress is gone, and there’s no more time pressure. That means we can shoot for as long as you like – giving you more calm, more possibilities, and more beautiful photos.
Ideal spot, ideal light
On your wedding day, photos are usually taken wherever you happen to be, and whenever it fits into the schedule. With an after-wedding shoot, you can choose your favorite location and go there when the lighting is just right.
A second chance
Sometimes, things just don’t go as planned – golden sunlight turns into clouds, rain, or strong wind. What was meant to be a beautiful outdoor portrait session becomes just a few quick photos under an umbrella. This shoot gives you a second chance.
Fearless bridal
After the wedding, you no longer have to worry about getting your dress or suit dirty. That doesn’t mean you have to ruin it, of course – but having more freedom and a relaxed mindset is a big part of what makes after-wedding shoots special. Running on a sandy beach, shooting in the water (yes, even underwater), lying in the grass… There are no limits to your imagination. And it’s often these moments that lead to the most natural and beautiful photos.
Key considerations
It’s clear that an after-wedding shoot is an extra investment – whether in time or money. How much depends entirely on what you want and how you imagine the experience. It could be a three-hour session the day after your wedding at locations nearby, or a full-day adventure in the Dolomites or the Canary Islands. Yes, I’ve had the chance to shoot sessions like these – and every single one was absolutely worth it.
About hair & make-up
You might be wondering – what about hair and makeup? Do I really need to arrange everything again? From experience, professional styling definitely makes a difference. Is it essential? Not necessarily. If you feel you don’t need it, the shoot can absolutely go ahead without it. But a well-done makeup look and especially a good hairstyle can give the photos a polished feel – and help you feel your best. And that always shows in the final result.
