Wedding photography is not just about taking pictures. It’s about telling an entire story through images love, emotion, laughter, tears, dancing, hugs, and all the little details that happen only for one day and live on forever in photographs.

Today I want to tell you:

  • How to Plan Your Wedding Photo Session;
  • What to Expect from Your Photographer;
  • How Far in Advance Should You Book Your Wedding Photographer;
  • How Much Does Wedding Photography Cost;
  • And how to choose a photographer who will tell your story sincerely and artistically.

Why is wedding photography important?

A wedding is one of the most emotional and unforgettable days in life. You invest in the dress, details, location, music, the mood of the guests, and only the photographer can capture it all together. In a way, the photographer becomes the storyteller of your history.

Plan everything in detail. Years later, you will be able to remember this day only through the photos. That’s why choosing a photographer should be one of the first and most thoughtful steps.

How far in advance should you book a wedding photographer?

During popular seasons (June to September), wedding photographers are booked 6 to 12 months in advance. For example, if you want to have a wedding in August, it’s best to book at least 8 months ahead to secure your preferred professional.

Quick Tip: You should start booking a wedding photographer once you have chosen the venue and the date.

How to choose a photographer?

Choosing a photographer is not just about looking at the portfolio. Here are some questions you should ask the photographer to help make the right choice:

1. What style does the photographer shoot in?

Documentary? Editorial? Shots in motion or static?

Photographer Goga shoots in a documentary style, which means all emotions are captured as they are. The photos are not just beautiful; they are real.

2. How many hours of service do you offer?

Typically from 6 to 12 hours. Sometimes a full day, sometimes just the ceremony.

Wedding day photo timeline how does the process go?

Wedding photography starts with preparation and ends with dancing or the cake-cutting ceremony. Here’s generally how it looks:

  1. Preparation stage: putting on the dress, details, makeup, sentimental moments with family.
  2. First Look: the couple’s first meeting during the day.
  3. Ceremony: guests, emotions, ring exchange ceremony.
  4. Hotel photos or location photo session: Tbilisi streets? Mountains? Botanical Garden?
  5. Banquet and after-party: dancing, cake cutting, surprises.

What to expect from a wedding photographer?

  • Professionalism and respect photos are the main detail of your day, but not the only one.
  • A planned timeline and flexible response sometimes the sky is cloudy or the registration area is crowded. A professional photographer adapts to everything.
  • Detailed captured elements rings, flowers, menu, surprises… Everything should be in the frame.

The decisive influence on photos is…

  • On you - how naturally you behave in front of the camera.
  • Regarding the wedding schedule - proper time management is necessary.
  • At the location - whether in the city or in nature, light and space are important.

Tips for couples: how to prepare for a photoshoot

  • Rest well the night before;
  • Agree with the photographer on the day’s schedule and special requests;
  • Don’t bring unnecessary items to the location;
  • Leave time for small surprises and natural moments;
  • Try to be relaxed and not feel tense on that day.

Conclusion

Wedding photography is not just one day - it’s a life story that, when told right, can convey the entire emotion.

I offer an individual, sincere, and professional approach - each couple’s story is unique, and the shots reflect that.
