YOUR WEDDING JOURNEY STARTS HERE
Thank you for choosing Bad Bird Photography to be part of your wedding celebration!
We are truly honored that you’ve entrusted us with capturing one of the most meaningful days of your lives. Our goal is to make your photography experience enjoyable, effortless, and memorable while creating beautiful images you’ll treasure for generations.
Your wedding photography experience starts with getting to know you!
We’d love to schedule a planning meeting to sit down together, hear all about your wedding plans, and discuss the details that will help us create the best possible photography experience for you.
During our meeting, we’ll get to know your vision, discuss your timeline, and go over the important moments you want us to capture.
Whether you already have every detail planned or are just getting started, we’re here to help!
WHAT WE'LL DISCUSS DURING OUR MEETING
To make the most of our time together, here are some of the things we’ll go over:
YOUR WEDDING VISION
Your style, preferences, and overall expectations for your wedding photography.
WEDDING DAY TIMELINE
Ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, and all the important moments throughout the day.
FAMILY & GROUP PORTRAITS
The important family members, friends, and group combinations you’d like photographed.
GETTING READY
Preparation photos, special details, and meaningful moments before the ceremony.
LOCATIONS & LIGHTING
Ideal photography locations and opportunities for beautiful portraits.
SPECIAL REQUESTS
Any traditions, surprises, or meaningful details you’d like us to know about.
YOUR PHOTOGRAPHY PRIORITIES
The people, moments, and memories that matter most to you.
A LITTLE SOMETHING BEFORE WE MEET
As you begin thinking about your wedding photography, here are a few things you may want to consider:
– Do you have a wedding planner or coordinator?
– Have you selected your ceremony and reception locations?
– Do you have a preliminary wedding day timeline?
– Are there any specific photographs you’ve always dreamed of having?
– Are there any special traditions or family circumstances we should know about?
Don’t worry if you don’t have all the answers yet! We’ll work through everything together.
You decide our level of involvement
We can talk about how much time you will need us for and if you'd like your wedding to be posy and artsy, or fun and full of hugs.
1. Vogue
Editorial · Dramatic · Fashion-forward
Inspired by fashion magazines, this approach is all about intentional posing, striking compositions, and expressive angles. From elongated lines and sculptural shapes to dynamic poses and varied levels, we create bold, polished images that make a statement.
2. Posed
Refined · Romantic · Intentional
We guide you into flattering, thoughtfully composed poses while keeping the connection between you at the heart of every image. From a gentle embrace to a relaxed stance, every detail is considered without losing the warmth and personality that make the photograph yours.
3. Guided
Relaxed · Natural · Connected
A little direction goes a long way. We might invite you to hold hands, draw each other into a hug, or lower your bouquet to reveal more of your dress. These gentle prompts help create flattering, natural-looking photographs without making the experience feel overly posed.
4. Candid
Authentic · Effortless · Unscripted
For couples who love images that feel spontaneous and true to life, we keep direction to a minimum. We may suggest where to walk or how to turn toward the light, then let you interact naturally while we capture the laughter, expressions, and in-between moments as they happen.
