SPECIAL NEEDS
Please note photos NOT to take or anything Dana should be sensitive to or pay special attention to (divorces, health issues, special needs, etc.)
FAMILY & WEDDING PARTY PHOTOGRAPHS
Tip: Keep in mind that we should allow about three minutes per each formal photograph (including the time it takes to set everyone up). Small groupings take less time to photograph & large groupings take more time. The formal photography session works best if two members of your wedding party are appointed “Family Gatherers:” one person who is familiar with each of the couple’s family. These photographs take time, so the more available your family and attendants are, the more smoothly & quickly I can work & the sooner you can enjoy the company of your guests.
