To succeed with your wedding photos, rely on a precise briefing with your photographer, allow time for the unexpected, let go on the big day, and use an instant sharing solution like CéSAR Photo so you don't lose any shots taken by your guests.

1. Organize an engagement session

Nothing beats a photo shoot before the wedding to break the ice with your photographer. You'll be much more comfortable in front of the lens on the big day.

2. Prepare a list of must-have shots

Share with your photographer the moments you absolutely do not want to miss (the first look, the photo with grandparents, etc.). But also give them the freedom for candid shots.

3. Don't forget your guests' photos

Your photographer can't be everywhere. Your guests will take hundreds of photos with their smartphones. To easily centralize them, avoid WhatsApp groups or WeTransfer.

Use CéSAR Photo: your guests scan a QR code, take a selfie, and instantly find all the photos they appear in, while enriching your global gallery.
