Wedding Shot List
This optional wedding shot-list template will help the photographer get the exact shots you’re looking for.
These photos will be in addition to all the other photos they will take proactively.
This list is especially handy for your family portrait session because it allows you to list, in advance, all of the family combinations you would like to get. (Grandpa + Grandma + Bride, etc.)
