What a beautiful day for a wedding.  Terravita Golf Course (located in Scottsdale, AZ) has a wonderful setting for a ceremony with its breath taking view.

We captured some amazing pictures of their special day and wanted to share them with you.

You may have to walk somewhere, find a place to sign, sign it, and then take some photos.  Now your timeline for  pictures and cocktail/reception start times may need to be adjusted.

Your photographer will be there to capture the moment, but time may run slim if the signing is not put into the timeline.

We always go over this with the couple.

Thank you for reading our blog and look for more to come!

Question #1: Can I arrive prior to the ceremony to do pictures at the alter?  If you are planning on doing a First Look, getting some of the picture

prior to the wedding will be time efficient after the ceremony in case there is not enough time after the ceremony.

Question #2: Is there a crying room or a place for crying children?  When video is being recorded, there are times when the video will pick up a

crying baby.  We use 4 separate sound sources, so we are able, to our best ability, take out the cries.  If a baby begins to cry, the parent should

be able to take their child to another room.

Question #3: What are the limitations as to how far up the isle your photographer can go?  Many churches only allow the photographers to go

only so far up the isle.  Letting your photographer know ahead of time the limits will allow them to be better prepared for the ceremony.

Question #4: Do you allow flash during the ceremony?  Many churches only allow flash during the precession and procession.  During the

ceremony, no flash is allowed.  Now be careful: if your church says no photoraphy – MAKE SURE TO GET A BETTER UNDERSTANDING!

In the past a bride was misled to believe it meant no flash, but in actuality it really meant no photos during the ceremony.  She found this

out 1 week before the ceremony!  No flash and no pictures are two different things.

Question #5: How much time after the ceremony do we have for photos?  Some churches may have another wedding, funeral, or even a mass

after your ceremony.  Make sure you ask how much time you have.  We want to make sure we capture all your photos.

There are other questions brides have for their church, but these are important ones for your photographer to know ahead of time.  It will allow for better understanding prior to your big day and get out of the way any complications that may arise.
