Subjects and ideas for photography
First you need to decide on the place where you plan to have a photo shoot. Every detail of the location must correspond to the theme; we will select accessories, taking into account the main colors of your holiday. Often photographs are taken in a restaurant immediately after the wedding ceremony, in which case it is possible to create shots with the guests. There is also no need to think about accessories, the decorations are already present by default.
An on-site photo shoot is organized against the backdrop of architectural buildings, in an estate or a beautiful park. It is important that the route is made logically in terms of movements, otherwise you will spend a lot of time moving.
Popular ideas:
- Lovers walk around the city or go outside the capital for a walk - the picturesque landscapes are an excellent backdrop;
- A couple launches Chinese lanterns into the sky or releases a bunch of balloons; usually such photos look impressive;
- The bride and groom pose in the studio, hug each other, show their wedding rings;
- Active scenes, when the newlyweds go on rides, are the best way to capture sincere emotions;
- Photos with your parents, your closest people will support you if you feel nervous;
- Black and white photographs, photos with antique interior items.
The photographer will help you with posing and tell you which angles are best to use. You can meet our team before the photo shoot and take a few test shots if you are worried about the result at the wedding. We want to portray your love story in the frame, so we ask the models to relax and just enjoy time with each other.
If your wedding takes place in winter, you need to take care of warm clothes in advance. When you plan to take photos with guests, inform them about the outdoor walk so that they too are prepared for weather conditions. In this case, we advise you to organize photography in a photo studio, where there are all comfortable conditions, and there is also a dressing room. Moreover, you don’t have to look for a hairstylist to do your hair and makeup. Dzen-studios employs professionals who will fulfill your wishes and create the ideal image you dreamed of.
It is better to avoid too bright makeup, especially when it comes to mother-of-pearl and sparkles. Give preference to calm shades, they are combined with a romantic role. The hairstyle can be any, the main thing is that the hair does not cover the bride’s face.
Places for a wedding photo shoot in winter
Wedding photo shoots in winter can be carried out both outdoors and in closed areas. Snow-white landscapes of city parks and country estates are an excellent backdrop for your love story. But if the weather is not favorable for shooting, you can choose one of these photo studios in Moscow or other locations.
Fashionable art space on Vorobyovy Gory
The atmosphere of this loft will transport guests to a picturesque Scandinavian chalet with a fireplace and a woodpile that fills the room with a woody aroma. The minimalist, even somewhat brutal interior of the hall and antique furniture will be an excellent backdrop for a wedding photo shoot. Another advantage of this place is the huge five-meter stained glass windows that let in streams of sunlight into the photo studio. With this kind of lighting you are sure to take great shots.

Greenhouse of the Botanical Garden of Moscow State University
To go from winter to summer, organize a photo shoot in the Old Stock Greenhouse of the Main Botanical Garden of Moscow. The greenhouse is open to visitors all year round. There are many exotic plants inside that remain green even in winter. Strolling along the paths surrounded by lush greenery will give you plenty of stunning shots.

How newlyweds prepare for a photo shoot
When preparing, consider details, such as what your outfit will be. If the wedding dress has a long train, it is advisable to invite someone close to you who could help you. When it comes to a photo walk, take comfortable shoes with you. Heeled shoes are great for photos, but walking around in such shoes will be uncomfortable throughout the day.
It is advisable for the groom to choose clothes, shoes and accessories together with his beloved, so that the color of the suit and shirt matches the color of the bride’s dress. And in the photographs you will look harmonious and elegant. If the wedding day is expected to be hot, and the photo shoot will be in the banquet hall, take a spare shirt with you.
Manicure should be neat for both partners. For women, we advise not to use flashy shades; nude polishes will be relevant.
Our team guarantees:
- High-quality result;
- Easy and fun process;
- Photographer support;
- Lots of photo props.
We suggest thinking through poses to implement your desired ideas. They should be natural for you; stiffness will spoil the pictures of the couple. Use props to add variety to your photo. These can be balloons, frames, flowers, marriage certificates and rings themselves. The more sincere the model poses, the better the pictures turn out.
Tip #1: Choose comfortable shoes
This is a must-have for all brides - comfortable shoes on a walk are the key to a good mood and, therefore, good shots. First of all, I recommend that all my girls choose comfortable shoes: for a wedding walk, these are ballet flats or even sneakers.
Do you want beautiful dress shoes? No question - choose shoes and take a “change” of flats with you for a walk.
About 90% of my brides wear floor-length dresses, and their shoes are completely invisible underneath them, even boots. On the other hand, a wedding walk is 1.5-2 hours in the park.
Have you tried walking in heels on the grass? It's inconvenient, isn't it? It is much wiser to simply wear comfortable shoes for the duration of the walk. You don’t have to buy ballet flats or sneakers on purpose; you can change into old ones; as I wrote above, they won’t be visible under the dress. The main thing is to be comfortable.
Why choose a studio
The main criterion for evaluating any location for a photo shoot is your personal comfort. Focus on your wishes and feelings; you will spend about 2 hours in the studio, so it’s worth renting a space that both partners would like. You can book several options at once. Please indicate the date and time to place your order.
Advantages of studio shooting:
- Save time. You will not need to travel from one place to another in search of attractions in order to create shots; in a dress, it is often inconvenient for a girl to constantly be on the move. Plus, travel is exhausting.
- High quality result. We have professional equipment that can make the lighting perfect. As you know, it is light that plays the most important role in the photography process.
- Wide choice of interiors. Change one background to another, experiment with ideas, you can try different styles.
- Comfort. Passers-by will not embarrass you, there are also few employees in the studio, no one will disturb you.
An excellent gift in honor of the holiday would be a certificate from Dzen-studios. The newlyweds will independently choose the optimal day to visit the photo studio; the date remains open. The present is made of high-quality cardboard and has several types of designs. We will add a personal congratulation with your text. Delivery in Moscow is carried out free of charge by courier.

Tip #2: Try to get enough sleep the night before your wedding
Yes, I know that many people find it difficult to sleep because of the pre-wedding jitters, but you need to sleep at least 5-6 hours, otherwise by the middle of the wedding day you will fall asleep on the move. In addition, a fresh complexion and a cheerful mood are always an advantage for a photo shoot.
If you need to resolve some issues with the site or decor the day before, don’t put it off until the evening, do it in the afternoon.
Under no circumstances should you have a bachelor or bachelorette party on the eve of your wedding - give yourself a break between these events. If you are planning a party dedicated to saying goodbye to single life, organize it a week before the celebration.
What props are needed?
Studios usually offer several room decor options, but you can add your own personal touches to the ambience. For example, arrange a separate photo zone with framed photographs of your children. Prepare signs with the inscriptions “I agree!”, “Game over” or with common surnames and words of love. Order personalized inflatable balloons or life-size models of rings (they will contain original frames).
Don't be afraid to experiment. Soap bubbles, colored smoke, cotton candy - all this can look impressive in a photo. The main thing is to choose decor that will organically fit into the chosen studio style.
Tip #4: Do a hair and makeup rehearsal
We will talk about how to choose a stylist in a separate article, but here I will talk specifically about the importance of rehearsal. You should be 100% comfortable in your wedding look, because if the bride doesn’t like herself even at the getting ready, her mood for the whole day will be ruined. And of course, in this case, you won’t like the wedding photos either, because they will remind you of an unsuccessful image.
This is by no means a criticism against stylists, because the bride may simply not like herself in a particular look. This happens: when you think it will look good, but you try it on yourself, you don’t like it. You know, like with things in the store.
Mother of the groom
Carefully study photographers’ portfolios and reviews from clients. Remember that the price must correspond to the quality. Call the specialists you like in advance and check if they have free time for you. Valentina Pichernyuk
Fiesta
The burning Spanish style is an emblem of true passion and love. Capture yourself in the images of a beautiful senorita and a hot senor. The photo will look great with your silhouettes dancing flamenco or the groom with a guitar singing a serenade for his beloved.
The studio can be decorated in passionate black and red colors. Place a bottle of Sangria with citruses on the table, hang a poster with a tall cactus on the wall, and throw a sombrero on the chair. Lots of greenery and bright flowers will add a real Spanish flavor.
Accessories for the bride:
- fan;
- castanets;
- a large rosebud in your hair;
- massive hoop earrings;
- monisto and bracelets on the wrist;
- bright red lipstick.
Props for the groom:
- sword;
- guitar;
- cloak;
- vest;
- red satin neckerchief;
- wide belt to match the scarf;
- a bright shirt (you can casually unbutton your own two buttons and roll up the sleeves ¾).
Tip #6: Turn off your phone during the photo shoot
During a photo shoot, it is better if you are relaxed and nothing distracts you from the process. On their wedding day, newlyweds receive a lot of calls and not only to congratulate them. Guests call to ask something, decorators call to coordinate, etc.
This greatly distracts the couple from the filming process, sometimes even makes them nervous, and besides, we waste time, and there is very little of it.
If a coordinator is present at the wedding, it’s good, let them call him directly on all organizational issues. If there is no coordinator, ask a responsible friend to be the coordinator for the duration of the walk.
Important tips from YesYes
Tip #1 The photographer will need from 15 minutes to an hour to set up the equipment: set the light, synchronize the cameras with the lighting equipment, create the correct light and shade.
You also pay for this time. You're in a photo studio, which means it's rental time. Expect to pay for 20-30 minutes of setup. In general, the shooting will take 2.5-3 hours.
Tip #2 The photographer’s portfolio should include studio work. It’s easier to shoot outdoors: the light is soft and diffused. Shooting in artificial light is a separate skill.
Works with hard shadows in a photographer’s studio portfolio are a sign of a bad artist (as in the photo on the left). Perhaps the photographer does not shoot much in the studio or this is not his strong point at all.
Modern studios are capable of embodying the most sophisticated ideas: you will get as original photographs as you want!
Thematic shooting
Gangster wedding
Chic, glitter, glamor - what else is needed for spectacular photos? To recreate the atmosphere of dashing Chicago mafiosi, you will have to add some accessories to the decor and outfits.
For the bride:
- veil;
- feather headband;
- long satin gloves;
- mouthpiece;
- a feather boa or fur cape over the shoulders.
For the groom:
- Felt hat;
- the bow tie;
- suspender;
- vest with breast pocket;
- watch on a chain;
- holster;
- cigar.
The room can be decorated with posters depicting Chicago at night and vintage cars. Casino chips and souvenir dollars scattered on the floor will look good in the frame. Funny pictures will be taken against the backdrop of a police growth ruler. And black and white photos will emphasize the vintage, retro theme.
