I was recently asked by the fabulous Leigh Pearce of\u00a0Leigh Pearce Weddings<\/span><\/a><\/strong>\u00a0to be a guest blogger. \u00a0She gave me a pretty wide open field (so long as it dealt with photography!) and I chose a subject near and dear to my heart \u2013 light. \u00a0Light is everything to us photographers and I wanted to discuss how you can plan your day to optimize its fabulosity. \u00a0So here\u2019s the question we discuss: what is the optimal time to get married in order to get the soft buttery light that just makes a wedding sing? All of the images above were taken within 2 hours of sunset and you can see how gorgeous the light is. Bodies look longer and leaner, skin looks more soft and even, shadows disappear. If you are thinking of an outdoor ceremony, ask your photographer what the perfect time for your day is.<\/p>\n

From the blog post –\u00a0<\/em>\u201cWhen you envision your wedding ceremony, what do you see? \u00a0Candle light glowing softly or sunlight streaming in through the windows? \u00a0Outdoor formal portraits and a romance session with that sweet yellow light or more traditional formals in front of the church sanctuary? \u00a0This is no small question in the planning of your big day \u2013 especially where your photography is concerned. \u00a0Most brides spend an average of 10 \u2013 12 % of their budget on their wedding photography but really have very little knowledge of how to plan for the best wedding light \u2013 and light, my dear friends, is everything.\u201d<\/p>\n

Head over to Leigh\u2019s\u00a0blog<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/strong>\u00a0to read the rest of the post and here\u2019s to you looking fab on your wedding day!<\/p>\n
