Props for your pictures!
Image by Ben Blood Photography of Seattle, found on Stephanie James CoutureAlthough detail shots and romantic pictures of each persona individually and the couple together are absolutely beautiful, sometimes adding a few props or a theme to the pictures can take your photos to the next level and turn them into art that can be oooo'd and ahhhhh'd over forever! You can choose from the list below or definitely use props/themes that have meaning to the two of you! Here are some ideas for colorful, classic, and unique props you could use in your photos! Be sure to also ask your photographers- they are immensely creative people and can help see what would work best through the lense.
A big bouquet of balloons (in the colors of your wedding or black and white)
Mirrors (behind you, below you, above you, etc. for reflection pictures)
Pets (clean and nicely groomed, of course!)
Bubbles
Cars (your getway car or a classic car of a friend)
Minnie and Mickey Mouse ears
Umbrellas/parasols/Asian paper umbrellas
Soda shop theme (complete with coca-cola and an ice cream sundae)
Oversized 'Thank You' sign(s)- (can be used as your thank you cards/postcards)
Musical instruments (especially if you love to play!)
Sunglasses/hats
Bicycles (especially beach cruisers)
Various shoes (rain boots, tennis shoes, colorful socks, glass slippers, etc.)
Nature (trees, leaves, bushes, fields, etc.)
Sparklers
Don't forget to smile! :)
