Bride Tip Tuesday – Family Shot List Example

I absolutely love meeting our couple’s families on the wedding day! Family formals are normally my first interaction with them and so I love to have a game plan for this part of the day!

Creating a family shot list is one of the more difficult things to make for your wedding day. I wanted to  show you what a sample family formal list looks like to help you prepare. This is just a guide to get the juices flowing in regards to making your family shot list. It also helps you not forget any immediate family members 🙂

I do have to limit the family formal time in order to ensure that we have plenty of daylight for your romantic portraits. However, any large family group shots that we don’t accomplish during family formals, we can be sure to capture at the reception!
