How far in advance should bridal portraits be arranged?
We recommend that bridal studio sessions take place at least two months or more before the wedding. This allows time for the images to be processed, samples proofs to be delivered to the couple, decisions to be made concerning reprints and enlargements, processing of reprints or enlargements, delivery of the prints, and framing of the enlargements. Additionally, if an outdoor bridal photoshoot session is planned, scheduling these sessions well in advance of the wedding date allows for rescheduling if any weather-related delays occur. We don’t experience many of these weather-related delays, but if it should happen to rain on the day of a scheduled outdoor session, it’s safer to plan the session far enough in advance to have time to reschedule, if necessary.
