Photographer

Back on Dec 10, 2018 both my sister (31) and nephew (5) we killed in a rear end accident. Since then my wedding planning has been difficult as they we huge part of the wedding with being my MOH and ring bear. We are wanting to have aspects in the wedding the represent both of them. We are getting to sit down with our wedding photographer to discuss our vision for the wedding and pricing . I recently had sat down with my florist (my aunt) and had her make a bouquet to place on my sis chair and one for the cemetery. I’m really wanting to capture the precious moment of me placing her bouquet at the cemetery. Do you guys think it would be weird or wrong to ask my photographer to capture this days before our wedding?
P.S I have included pictures of the bouquet the pink is my sister wedding color and purple represents one of my colors.

    I think it would be a wonderful tribute. I'm so sorry for your loss. I lost my dad two weeks ago, and now have to decide if I walk alone or have my brother's give me away. I'm sure your photographer would be honored to take the pictures for you. And if they're not, I'd find another photographer.

    That would be such a sweet memorial to honor your sister! I don't think that would be a wild request to make of a photographer - like a PP said, find a photographer who will respect your wish Smiley smile stay strong!

    I'm so sorry for your loss and I think that's a beautiful idea. There is absolutely nothing wrong with asking it of your photographer.

    I'm sorry for your loss. I agree with PP just ask. She may charge you more but it doesn't hurt to ask.

    I'm so sad for you. So very sorry for your loss. I think it's a very sweet thing to do, and I'm sure your photographer will agree.

    Your sister and nephew will be with you on your big day, watching over you from Heaven.
    Hugs to you and your family.
