Create Your Wedding Album More Vibrant with these Wedding Photography Shots!

Marriages are not just about getting married or marriage between two souls. Weddings in India are a sea full of emotions, lots of drama, fun, and merriness. You can witness something unique that you will remember for many years or maybe for the rest of your life. From beginning to end, there are plenty of events in a wedding that can show various emotions by various people. Happiness, sadness, and some mixed emotions are part of an Indian wedding.

Weddings in India are like a festival, that is being celebrated not only by the families of the bride and groom but also by the near and dear ones, friends, and extended family. That’s why we call it ‘Big Fat Indian Wedding’, because of its lavish style.

Here we are discussing some of these moments that we experienced at weddings-

Haldi Ceremony-

Haldi ceremony in any Indian wedding kickstarts the wedding functions. A fun-filled activity where the bride and groom get the Haldi (Turmeric) treatment in their respective families. The ceremony is usually done one day prior to the wedding day. On this occasion, close relatives and friends of the bride and groom apply turmeric paste to them.

Though the ceremony has become a fad these days, it holds a significant place in Indian weddings. As we all know turmeric is a natural antiseptic with Ayurvedic properties, and for ages, we all have been using turmeric in our daily lives.

The primary goal of applying turmeric to the bride and groom before their wedding is to keep them safe from any infection or germs. Also, turmeric helps their skin to glow naturally.

Haldi ceremony is performed in broad daylight and we can get plenty of beautiful shots in natural daylight. All the relatives perform rituals. Cousins and friends having fun and playing pranks on the bride and groom provide some lively shots.

Mehndi Shots-

Mehndi ceremony is another fun-filled ceremony that is done a day before the wedding day, usually with the Haldi ceremony. It is done to enhance the beauty of the bride and groom. The groom gets Heena applied to his palms and the bride gets it on her palms, back of hands, and feet.

The ceremony is full of dance, music, and fun. All the relatives and friends get together to celebrate the occasion.

The ceremony takes place during the daytime which is helpful to get some candid and beautiful shots without bothering about the light. Good lighting is a photographer’s delight.

Getting Ready Shots-

These are some of the intimate moments when the bride is getting ready and we click some candid pictures. A shot of a wedding dress or gown, some shots of make-up, jewellery, shoes, and other accessories will surely add vibrancy to the wedding album.

Not only for bides, but the same also applies to grooms as well. Shots of the groom’s suit or wedding attire, shoes, and accessories are equally important.

With great setting and lighting, these getting-ready shots can stand out from the whole album.

Bride Entry –

The entry shots of the bride and groom should be astounding. It’s their wedding day and they should be treated like stars. Add some fun and drama to the entry and make it more joyful.

Rather than the traditional entrance, try new things. For example, vintage cars and customized vehicles add a whole new zest to the event and will leave a lasting impression.

The Bridesmaids Crew –

Bridesmaids play an important role in a wedding album. They are the ones who can provide some naughty and fun shots. The mischievous acts of bridesmaids and teasing of the groom add fun factors.

The sweet banter of bridesmaids and groom’s friends will cheer up everyone.

Funny Groomsman –

If bridesmaids are adding glamour to wedding photography. Then the groom’s brothers and friends are the fun factors of a wedding album. The jokes and banters between bridesmaids and groomsmen can never be missed.

Indian weddings are all about fun and frolic. Sometimes a dance performance from the groom’s brothers infuses life to a wedding party and makes everyone happy.

Close-up Portrait –

A must-have for a wedding album is the close-up portraits of the bride and groom. It could be a solo portrait or it could be of the couple as well.

When the bride and groom are fully dressed up with their complete accessories, they look astonishing and that is a great time to click some beautiful portrait shots.

A portrait shot of the blushing bride will enhance the beauty of a wedding album.

Candid Laugh Shots –

It’s a photographer’s responsibility to keep a camera always ready to click some shots of the bride and groom, especially when they share a laugh. A laugh shot of the bride and groom is a must-have in wedding albums.

Along with other shots when the couple is exchanging their thoughts or helping each other in any way depicts love and affection between them.

Bride Poses –

Capturing the beauty of the bride in her wedding dress, with her complete makeup and accessories should be a must on the list for a photographer.

The efforts put in by the bride and her bridesmaid should be appreciated with solo bride poses. There are plenty of ideas for bride poses like – Capturing through Duppata, Veil Shots, Top Angle Shots, Twirling Shots, and the list goes on and on.

Candid Shots –

Clicking candid shots of the bride and groom is a delightful experience. There are plenty of occasions where candid shots can be clicked.

When the bride and groom get ready, make entry, share a laugh, and perform rituals, a candid photographer can click candid pictures at that time.

Some solo shots of the bride add vibrance and liveliness to a wedding album.

Customs and Traditions –

Phere is one of the most important customs of marriage. When the bride and groom go around the holy fire and promise each other to be together for the rest of their lives is a beautiful scene to behold. There are teary eyes and then there are smiles. This depicts the emotions of both families. Sindoor, Wedding Rings, Mangalsutra, and Garlands enhance the beauty of wedding photography.

In Hindu marriages, there are seven Pheres and in Sikh marriages, there are four Pheres and each Phera has its own significance.

The beautiful mandap enhances the beauty of this event.

Emotional Moments –

Though Bidaai provides great moments of emotions to capture this is an emotional event when the bride bids adieu to her family and joins the groom’s family. We get beautiful shots of father-daughter, mother-daughter, sibling love, friends, and cousins all together.

These are some of the special moments where sadness is also part of happiness.

Wedding Photography is one of the best things a photographer can imagine. It’s an experience that everybody expects to be larger than life. A wedding in India is like a bag full of emotions.
