Wedding day pix - how long?

Joanna, on June 18, 2021 at 12:47 PM Posted in Planning 0 5
For those that are married, did any of you wish you had hired the photographer for a longer amount of time? If so how long do you think would have been enough time? For those planning, I know it’s an opinion type of question and will vary on what we want but five hours on the wedding day, enough time? Or no not at all?

    I’m doing 6 hours, could always up it. Depends on what you want. I don’t really want all the getting ready pics since I want to do that in peace and not have a camera in my face and just want to spend as much time with my MOH as possible since she’s from out of state. We aren’t having dancing really and don’t necessarily want pics of people dancing cause I think it’s awkward.

    Our main photographer is full day (up to 12 hours) and we have a second one for 3 hours. The way our photographer explained was the main one would be with the girls getting ready and then stay till the end of the reception, the second one would catch the end of the guys getting ready (putting on ties, shoes, etc) and then help with group shots and detail shots, leaving before ceremony.

    We're doing 6 hours, mostly due to budget constraints. I don't really care about getting ready pictures, and I feel like 6 hours will cover all of the important stuff that we want pictures of.

    We have two photographers, but only for 4 hours. We have our venue for 5.5 hours, but I'm not too worried about pictures of the reception or doing a send-off or anything. They will be there for some of the getting ready pics, pics before the wedding, the ceremony, and pictures after the ceremony.
