The photographer’s task is to catch and capture the expressions of endless happiness and joy in the eyes of the bride and groom. Therefore, it is so important for a couple in love to simply be natural and enjoy this holiday. But there are still a few secrets that will help turn wedding photos into photo masterpieces:
- Shot from above. When shooting from above, the face appears more expressive and clearer. Such photographs should be in every album. The newlyweds can look at each other or close their eyes. The main thing is to be in close proximity. The intimacy of the moment created in this way must be captured by the photographer.
- Half-sided photo. Such photos visually make the silhouette slimmer and more graceful. In this case, it is better for the couple to look into the lens and smile. This is how the bride and groom demonstrate their readiness for their future married life, while the single woman remains behind them.
- Behind a stone wall. The sophisticated, slender silhouette of the bride and the strong back of the groom are the emphasis in such photographs. Such a picture symbolizes the meaning of marriage - to be behind reliable male protection and support.
- A gentle and shy kiss. Kisses in the frame look cute and touching. Don’t be shy about the camera; an experienced photographer will not force you to pose, but will skillfully capture natural manifestations of tenderness. All natural photos are the best.

Surely every couple has many moments that they would like to capture.
- Display wedding rings. Among other photos, the album should contain shots of wedding rings. Autumn gives inspiration for their use: photos of rings on fallen leaves, in the buds of the last flowers, among red berries and fruits, etc.
- Use props and accessories. The photo can be taken through a light barrier: silk curtains, a veil, even an umbrella if it’s raining at the wedding. In such a frame there remains a little intrigue, understatement, as it should be in a romantic photo shoot. After all, it is not necessary to show off all your feelings. In addition, the young couple can hide their kiss behind an improvised screen.
Don't forget about the decor
Autumn nature is beautiful in itself. Thanks to this, special decorations may not be needed. However, for a wedding photo shoot, additional items never hurt.
- Various fruits. Use large apples, pumpkins, sunflowers and flowers for filming. You can hold them in your hands, scatter them next to you, or have a small picnic in the background.
- Arch. Popular option. Order a specially designed arch from a professional florist. It can be placed on a small hill in the forest so that all the beauty of nature can be seen through, or it can be used as a photo zone in the city.
- Balloons. Perfect if the weather is pleasant outside. Choose balloons in autumn colors: orange, yellow or burgundy. They will look great if there are almost no leaves left on the trees.
- Candles and lanterns. In autumn, the sun sets much earlier than in summer. Pick up some pretty candles or fancy lanterns and take a photo against the twilight background. An atmosphere of mystery and magic will be provided to the photographs.
- Romantic dinner in nature. It is not necessary to bring food and drinks with you. Create a beautiful and cute installation: decorate a small table with a white lace tablecloth and place a vase of wildflowers, wine glasses and candles on it. In such an environment, the bride and groom will look very romantic and secluded.
Props for a wedding photo shoot in the fall: decor, decorations, accessories

In addition, to decorate a photo shoot you can use:
- Wreath. The bride's head will be decorated with a lush wreath of asters, dahlias, leaves, and berries. It will add touching and romantic touch to the bride's image. Such ethnic motifs look very advantageous, and shots with them will dilute the family photo archive filmed in the metropolis.
- An arch decorated with floral material will not only be useful for successful and bright shots, but will also be needed for a symbolic wedding ceremony.
- Transport. Vehicles in the frame look unusual and funny: a retro car, a bicycle, a scooter, a moped and even roller skates. If you don’t have a Rolls-Royce, you can easily use an old Volga model for a photo shoot. Transport stylized to match the overall theme of the wedding would look very appropriate.
- Props. Bright satin and silk ribbons, vintage picture frames, helium balloons, kites, signs with funny inscriptions, large letters (capital letters of the newlyweds' names) made of papier-mâché, garlands, beads, lanterns, candles. You can make them yourself, or you can buy them at any specialty store.
Despite the approaching cold and the last rays of the sun, weddings in the fall are no less popular than in the summer or spring. After all, autumn emphasizes the beauty of fading nature, makes wedding photos touching, and the image of the bride especially romantic. And there is no need to be afraid of falling raindrops. Thanks to well-chosen props, bad weather will not be able to disrupt the event. And it can even become an organic component of the wedding concept.
