Why are group and family shots at weddings important?
We all know the Bride and groom are the star of the Hollywood blockbuster that is the wedding day. A brilliant Liverpool wedding photographer, like the one you find at Matthew Rycraft Photography, will make sure that not just the dream duo at the altar and the top table receives the cameras attention. But also the guests and more importantly the immediate family. Some wedding photographers just don’t bother My camera points the spotlight on much more than the Bride and Groom, I pride myself on going above and beyond to capture the raw emotions and expressions of wider family members, friendship groups and relations who are all an extra special part of your extra special day. It does come as quite a surprise to couples when they visit my award winning studio when I ask them if they have considered wedding family group shots. Many will think this is a given, when there are so many lesser Liverpool wedding photographers who just do not bother. Friends not just families I always fully encourage that couples have group shots of their friends and family. They’re always beautiful and poignant shots that family members will want multiple copies of, you’ll likely see them adorned on the walls of your family home for many years. They are simply proud as punch! Family is always important and a key cornerstone of any wedding - or else you’d elope! Having these group shots during your wedding day is a standard for Matthew Rycraft Photography. Always capture the bare minimum I always ensure I capture the bare minimum possible of family wedding photographs as you enjoy your special day because, and this is an unfortunate sad reality, you can never be sure how long you have left with your loved ones. And Covid19 has taught us this. These high quality stunning wedding images can sometimes be the only photos you have of certain family members and you’ll cherish them forever. Maybe not straight away but I guarantee a time will come when this is a reality. For some familied weddings don’t happen very often and they are a great time to get professional family photographs.
