Bridal photos

How early is too early to take bridal photos? The wedding isn't until October 2020 but since I'm in my last year of nursing school I'm planning ahead. Thanks in advance! (:

    I think you'll be good waiting until next August or September at the earliest!

    It doesn’t really matter. But usually you would wait until you have your dress and alterations done and it’s better to do those closer to the wedding in case anything changes.

    Hey there Holly!

    As the PPs mentioned, I think once your wedding look is complete and won’t be changing in any way, you could do your bridals. Closer to the wedding would be best in case anything does change Smiley smile

    August or September time sounds like a good time!

    Have you got your wedding dress yet?

    Yes, I've purchased my dress. I'm a bit of an overachiever as well as finishing my last year of nursing school, so I wanted to have most of my planning finished before classes started back. I already have everything minus a few small details for my centerpieces. Otherwise my dress is hanging in my room and everything else is in storage totes just waiting to be used.

    If you already have dress and style of hair you are leaning towards then you can do pictures as early as you want. If you want fall weather since your wedding is during fall then maybe you can do them sometime this year. Just make sure you stay on the same weight so your pictures don’t look too different.

    It's not a dumb question at all. I didn't have any plans to take them but my photographer said they were included in my package, so I said what the heck (: they are just photos of you in your dress before your FH sees you. Just a little something special that you can do before hand.
