Reasons Why You Should Have Your Bridal Portraits Captured



There is no doubt that your photographer will be capturing photos of your entire wedding day. You and your partner will be posing with all your loved ones, your wedding party, and your closest friends. Perhaps, you will even be posing for photos with your wedding entertainers and chefs. You will have an array of photos captured with everyone, as a way to remember your big day.

However, it’s very important that you have bridal portrait photos captured as well. Remember, it’s your big day, and you should have photos that remind you of all the hard work and beauty treatments that certainly paid off, not to mention that newlywed glow.

We believe that every bride should take a little time to focus on herself, especially after planning such a huge event. That’s why, her at Joseph Hummel Photography, we have put together a few reasons as to why you should have your bridal portraits captured before your big day. Learn more about the benefits of bridal portraits when you keep reading.

  • More options. On your big day, you likely won’t have the opportunity, or time, to run off to a location that has a beautiful setting. A bridal portrait session before your big day is a wonderful way to ensure that you have more options to utilize as your backdrop. The right setting will lead to stunning bridal photos that you won’t be able to take your eyes off.

  • Time is crucial. Your wedding day is already so packed with all your bridal duties, from getting ready to entertaining a guest list of upwards of fifty people. You will be too swamped and stretched thin to even consider sneaking away for a quick, bridal photoshoot. A bridal photoshoot before the big day allows you as much time as necessary to photography your jaw dropping, bridal look. From each and every detail, all the way down to your earrings.

  • Opportunity for a test run. Before your big day, there are many vital parts that you will be practicing, such as reciting your vows, your walk down the aisle, your newlywed entrance, and more. Yes, a rehearsal dinner is the perfect opportunity to practice most these events. However, what about the practice you could use for your wedding photos? A bridal photoshoot allows you the perfect opportunity to practice capturing photos with your photographer. You will begin to understand how your photographer operates, and what to expect on your big day.

Your wedding photos are important, especially your bridal portraits. These are just a few of the many reasons to have a bridal photoshoot before your wedding day.
