How to capture summery images

Q – My wife-to-be and I are getting married next summer and would like some shots that reflect the season. Do you have any suggestions?

"Summer is always a popular season to get married and is a busy time for wedding photographers. A good supplier will always think about their surroundings when taking a shot and incorporate it into their image. Seasons bring so much colour change, and when thinking summer, you automatically think of green grass, blue skies and lots of beautiful flowers in bloom. When booking your venue, take this into account and think does it have an outdoor space where your photographer can take you around and incorporate Mother Nature into your images? You have the advantage of long evenings too, which make for some dusky night photos.

"Talk to your supplier about the types of shots you want and what you want to be captured. They will always tell you what will and won’t work and will consider where the sun is in the sky and take certain types of pictures when the light is just right.

"Summer weddings will certainly make for gorgeous images, and whilst that sun is setting there are some striking silhouettes and reflection opportunities, and with lots of sunshine, the rays make the shots even more dynamic.
