PHOTOGRAPHY PLANNER
To ensure that your photographer captures all the most important moments of your
wedding on film, provide him or her with a list of specific events and names of important guests
to photograph. Then designate a close friend or relative to help the photographer locate the
people on it. Discuss which shots should be in color and which in black and white.
