Putting together a list of the family photos you want can be a little overwhelming at first, but have no fear! This list will definitely get you moving in the right direction.

Please include your relationship and the first name of every person in each photograph. You don't need to include your own names. Fill out the form below and submit to send it over to me!

​

Below are several suggestions. Most couples include eight to twelve groupings on their family photo list and I don't allow more than 15 groupings for the sake of time. 

​

​

1. Bride + Groom w/ Officiant (name)

2. Bride + Groom w/ Flower Girls & Ring Bearers (comma separated names)

3. Bride + Groom w/ Bride's Parents (comma separated names)

4. Bride + Groom w/ Bride's Parents & Siblings (comma separated names)

5. Bride + Groom w/ Bride's Grandparents (comma separated names)

6. Bride + Groom w/ Bride's Parents & Grandparents (comma separated names)

7. Bride + Groom w/ Bride's Parents, Grandparents, & Siblings (comma separated names)

8. Bride + Groom w/ Groom's Parents (comma separated names)

9. Bride + Groom w/ Groom's Parents & Siblings (comma separated names)

10. Bride + Groom w/ Groom's Grandparents (comma separated names)

11. Bride + Groom w/ Groom's Parents & Grandparents (comma separated names)

12. Bride + Groom w/ Groom's Parents Grandparents, & Siblings (comma separated names)

​

​

Some people also want some individual photos… ex. Bride + Mom or Groom + Dad, etc. Keep these in mind but don’t go overboard. Take time to consider if the pictures being taken are the photos you’ll be using in an album or printing for yourself/others. 

 

 

Large Groups


Large groups are more difficult to pose than small

groups. Although I'll photograph everything on your

list, please try to organize family groupings so that

they include fewer than 12 to 14 people.

​

​

​

Let People Know


After we finalize your list, contact each person and

them know that they're included in family photos.

Stress how they shouldn't wander off after the

ceremony or they might disappear to grab a drink,

visit a restroom, etc.

​

​

Indoor Portraits


Although most family portraits occur outside, if an

indoor location is required, add ten minutes to the

family photo schedule so that I have enough time

to setup and break down my stands and flashes.

​

Submit your Family Photo List

Please take some time to fill out this family photo list for me so we are prepared on your wedding day. 

​

Here's an example of the format needed to make your family photos breezy:

Bride + Groom w/ Bride's Parents & Siblings (Jane, John,

Sally, John Jr.)
