What to Consider Regarding Various Hair Styles For Your Wedding Day Photography

When it comes to planning your special day, there are a wide range of areas you will need to plan carefully and thoroughly so you are given the day you always dreamed of. The church, the after party venue, the food, the cake; these are all aspects which can make or break your wedding day, but in terms of the bride, how she looks and feels on her big day is just as important.

Choosing the perfect wedding hairstyles for your wedding can be one of the most important things you decide on, next to the dress you choose to wear. When thinking about this aspect of your big day, there are a wide range of factors which you will need to take into consideration to ensure that you not only look beautiful, but feel beautiful too which will allow for stunning wedding photographs to remember your big day by. Many women may not take this into consideration, but your body type can help determine which styles will suit you best. In many cases, wearing your hair in an ‘up-do’ can help complement and lengthen your neckline making you look more elegant and in many cases, slimmer than your natural shape. This is a great way in which to make yourself feel more confident throughout the day and also help make you less conscious about your size when having your wedding photographs taken. It is also important that you take the style of your wedding dress into account also. Brides who have chosen to wear an overly accessorized or embellished dress may want to consider wearing their hair up in order to show off more of the dress to guests and so more can be seen in the wedding photographs. However, overly elaborate dresses should be teamed with simple, elegant hair styles so the final photographs do not portray you looking a little ‘over done’.

However, one of the best ways in which to choose the best hairstyle for your wedding day is to remember about your own personal style. We all want to look as beautiful and natural as possible on our special day, but the best wedding photographs are those where the happy couple look well dressed, smart and most importantly-comfortable. Look into getting a hairstyle which is comfortable and will not require excessive maintenance during the day. This will not only help to make you feel at ease, but will also ensure that your wedding photographs don’t result in you having different hair in each frame! Wedding photographers are there to capture your special day, but by wearing an intricate hairstyle, this could make your photograph time lengthen as you have touch ups made every few frames which can be extremely frustrating for your photographer.

Finally, one of the best ways in which to choose the best wedding hairstyle for your wedding photographs is to ask your photographer. He will be well aware of what will make a great photograph and what kind of styles may look best in terms of the composition of your wedding photographs, etc. Narrow down your favorite styles to a list of three and ask the advice of your hairdresser and your photographer on what they think will look best. When it comes to having the best day possible, it is all about planning but is also about ensuring you are as happy as possible.

Amy & David’s Wedding Slideshow

I’m pleased to present you with my favorite wedding photographs from Amy and David’s wedding day. Amy & David were married on June 27, 2010 – they had a traditional Jewish wedding ceremony that included the Groom’s Tisch,  Bedecken, Chuppah, Reading of the Ketubah, Sheva B’rachot, Mezinke Dance, and a lot of festive dancing!

Both the ceremony and reception were held at The Grand Prospect Hall in Brooklyn, which offers a magnificent ball room that dates back to the late 1800s.

Congratulations Amy & David! Mazel tov!

Engagement Session – Vanessa & Joe

Last weekend, I found myself back downtown at the Brooklyn Bridge Park in New York City for Vanessa and Joe’s engagement portrait session. I love the first picture – sunset and romance in the big city!

I’m looking forward to photographing their wedding on September 25, 2010 – both the ceremony and reception to be held at the De Seversky Center in Old Westbury, NY.
