here are my 6 Top Tips to Help You Feel more Confident in Your wedding Photos
Let’s be real, having a camera pointed at you can feel a bit like being a deer in headlights. Honestly, I feel the same way, so I totally get it! But guess what? You don’t have to be a model or know how to pose to look amazing in your wedding photos. If the idea of being photographed makes you want to dive behind the nearest bush, don’t worry, I’ve got you covered with my 6 Top Tips to help you feel more confident in front of the camera and capture stunning wedding memories you’ll cherish forever.
1. Find a Photographer Who Feels Like a Friend 🤗
You know that one friend who always makes you laugh and puts you at ease? That's where I come in! That’s the kind of energy I'll bring as your wedding photographer. Trust me, if your photographer feels more like a friend rather than a stranger with a camera, you’ll be way more relaxed - and that means better, more natural photos.

2. Treat Your Engagement Shoot Like a Fun Date 💕
An engagement shoot isn’t just about getting beautiful couple photos, it’s about getting comfy in front of the camera whilst having a blast with your favourite person! Think of it as a fun adventure together, whether it’s a walk on the beach, grabbing an ice cream, or twirling in a field. By the time your wedding day rolls around, you'll be total pros!
3. Forget the Camera, Just Enjoy the Moment 🎈
Instead of stressing about where to look or how to pose, just enjoy the moment! Laugh with your partner, whisper silly things to each other, or tell an inside joke. The more fun you're having, the more natural (and adorable) your photos will be!
4. Keep Moving and Have Fun 💃🕺
No stiff as a board poses here. The best way to look natural is to keep moving, walk hand in hand, do a twirl, or even a piggy back. When you're moving, you're not overthinking, and that means fun, relaxed, and natural photos!
