Since we are in the off season, it’s a bit quite on the blog front, but I thought I would share with you a wedding day tip.
Your wedding day is going to be filled with many beautiful and emotional moments that will make your wedding like nobody else’s. One of these precious moments is the first dance, so I have a wedding day tip for you.
Let it be about you and your husband, after all its your day, it’s your time to shine so don’t share the first dance. Instead have a second song for the bridal party, the parents and your guests to join in the festivities. Now here is why, the average song that is played during the first dance is a bit over 3 minutes, from a photography perspective this is the amount of time I have to capture all of my images that will make your first dance yours. Now if you cut the first dance in half and permit the bridal party, parents and guests to join in, the average amount of time I will have is a minute and a half to do this in, think about it 90 seconds. Again this is just a tip, I always do my best for my clients no matter how much time I have during any portion of the day. So what do you guys think?

Anna K. - Great idea to have 2 songs! Pano and I have pretty much decided on a song for the first dance, but it is quite short, and there are so many other songs that we love, so maybe we’ll have 2 “first” songs. Now I just have to get better quickly so we can take dance lessons…
