The Wedding Day Playbook
$25.00
Knowing how to take beautiful photographs is only one part of photographing a wedding. There’s also the planning, the family photo list, the changing timeline, and making sure everything is safely backed up when you finally get home.
The Wedding Day Playbook takes you through how I handle all of it.
Inside, I’m sharing what I’ve learned over seven years of photographing weddings, blending documentary moments with editorial portraits. From the first client conversation to delivering the finished gallery, you’ll find practical advice, examples, and systems you can adapt to your own business.
WHAT’S INSIDE
Client communication: consultation questions, planning calls, check-ins, and setting expectations.
Timelines and organization: sample eight- and ten-hour timelines, second-shooter assignments, family lists, and a wedding-day Notes template.
Gear preparation: packing checklists, batteries, memory cards, backup equipment, and keeping essentials within reach.
Photographing the day: getting ready, first looks, couple portraits, wedding-party and family photographs, ceremonies, speeches, dancing, and exits.
Making decisions: balancing direction with natural moments and adjusting when the plan changes.
After the wedding: backups, Lightroom catalogs, my Imagen and Evoto workflow, sneak peeks, film, and Pic-Time gallery delivery.
Client email templates: adaptable messages for inquiries, booking, planning check-ins, sneak peeks, gallery delivery, and review requests.
WHO IT’S FOR
Photographers preparing to photograph weddings, newer wedding photographers building their process, and anyone wanting a more organized approach to the day.
This is the guide I wish I’d had when I started: something to help you arrive prepared, make decisions with more confidence, and give your couples a thoughtful experience from beginning to end.
