When it comes to wedding photographs, there are some shots you just don’t want to miss! It’s really helpful if you create a list of photos you want and discuss it with your wedding photographer. Include the ‘where’, ‘how’ and ‘who’ so that the photographer knows exactly what you want in your wedding photo album. Here are 30 must-have wedding photos and poses to give your photographer as a handy checklist…
