7 Things You Should Tell Your Spokane Wedding Photographer

4.19.25

Your photographer isn’t just snapping pretty pictures. They’re capturing moments you’ll look back on for the rest of your life. To make sure nothing meaningful gets missed, good communication is key. Here are 7 things to share with your Spokane wedding photographer before the big day.

  1. Your Must-Have Moments

Let your photographer know what moments matter most to you. A professional photographer knows to take all the standard events (like getting ready, first look, the kiss, etc.) but make them aware of any specific or additional moments that are extra special. 

  1. Family Dynamics to Be Aware Of

Are your parents divorced? Is there tension between relatives? Letting your photographer know of these dynamics allows for them to be sensitive and plan group photos accordingly.

  1. Your Wedding Day Timeline

A clear timeline helps us know where to be and when. The more detailed, the better we can plan. Complete Weddings + Events photographers work with couples to create a timeline so don’t feel like you have to have it all figured out on your own.

  1. Any Special Traditions

Cultural, religious, or family traditions are all important. We want to know ahead of time so we can give them proper focus and know how you want the moments captured.

  1. What You Don’t Want Photographed

Whether it’s a specific angle or overly posed shots, let us know what to avoid. No hard feelings.

  1. Your Ceremony Rules

Every venue is different. Some don’t allow flash or restrict where we can stand. Let your wedding photographer  know the rules early. 

  1. Backup Plans for Weather

If you’re planning an outdoor wedding, share your rain plan so alternate locations and lighting can be prepared.

Your wedding photographer isn’t just showing up with a camera. They’re showing up with intention, empathy, and creativity. The more you share, the more meaningful your gallery becomes. At Complete Weddings + Events, we believe in capturing the heart behind the celebration. So don’t hold back on sharing details– we’re all ears.
