Planning

Wedding group shot photos are an essential part of any wedding. Your wedding may be one of the few times when you have all your friends and family together in one place and possibly the only time you spend a lot of money on hiring a professional photographer. Most wedding photographers will advise you on the shots you need and choose the best place and time to proceed. This can either be outside the Church or at the reception venue. The photographer will probably choose the best location based on the lighting conditions rather than the background - there is nothing worse than all the guests squinting into the sun!

The number of formal group shots required really depends on a couple of factors.

  • How important these kind of photos are to you.
  • The style of wedding photography you have booked.
  • The amount of time you want to spend posing for photos.

If you allow say 4-5 minutes per photo then you can see that 10-15 group shots will soon eat into the time. Large group shots take longer to set up than small groups of 4-5 people.
