  • Ceremony Coverage: Documenting the entrance, vows, exchange of rings, and the kiss.
  • Family & Group Photos: Organizing and photographing formal family portraits.
  • Couple Portraits: Romantic, artistic shots often done during golden hour.
  • Reception Coverage: First dances, speeches, cake cutting, and guest interactions.
  • Dance Floor Moments: Fun and candid shots of guests celebrating.
  • Wrap-Up: Packing gear, backing up memory cards, and leaving once coverage is complete.
