💬 Why Pre-Wedding Shoots Matter

A pre-wedding shoot is more than just taking pretty pictures — it’s about celebrating your love story before the big day. It also helps you get comfortable in front of the camera and build a connection with your photographer (that's us!).

If you're planning your shoot soon, here are a few easy but important tips to make it perfect.

🗓️ 1. Choose the Right Time

The best time for a pre-wedding shoot is early morning or just before sunset — we call it the golden hour. The light is soft, flattering, and makes everything look dreamy. Avoid harsh afternoon sun unless you're going for a dramatic look.

📍 2. Pick a Location That Matches Your Vibe

Your location should feel you. Here are a few ideas:

  • A quiet park or lake for a romantic look

  • A heritage building for that royal feel

  • A modern café or rooftop for a casual and fun vibe

If you’re from Kolkata, we’ve got amazing spots like Victoria Memorial, Princep Ghat, or even offbeat hidden gems — and we can help you decide.

👗 3. Plan Your Outfits in Advance

Wear clothes that:

  • Make you feel confident

  • Match your location

  • Complement your partner (coordinated, not identical)

Bonus tip: Carry an extra outfit if you want variety in your photos.

🧽 4. Keep Makeup & Hair Natural

You don’t need to go over the top. Light makeup, soft curls, or a clean bun work great. The idea is to look like yourself — just a little polished.

💑 5. Be Yourself in Front of the Camera

Don’t stress about poses. We’ll guide you through everything — from sweet moments to playful ones. Just focus on each other, laugh, talk, hold hands… that’s when magic happens.

🎒 6. Bring a Tiny Emergency Kit

Just in case, pack:

  • Tissues or blotting paper

  • Hairpins/safety pins

  • Water bottle

  • Lip balm or compact powder

  • Small towel (for summer humidity)

🗣️ 7. Communicate With Your Photographer (That’s Us!)

Tell us:

  • If you’re shy or camera-conscious

  • Any must-have shots you want

  • The mood you’re dreaming of (romantic, fun, Bollywood-style?)

We’re here to make this experience fun and unforgettable for you.

🥰 Final Thoughts

Pre-wedding shoots are not just about photos — they’re about moments. And we’re here to make those moments last forever.
