After your Ceremony



The receiving line is a great wedding tradition. It gives couples a chance to mingle with and thank the guests who made it to their ceremony. It's also a great time for photos. You can have your guests throw some flower petals, bubbles, or even beach balls. The result would be a fun, happy moment, which we will gladly capture and preserve as part of your wedding day memories.


During your Newlywed session or with your Wedding Party



Everyone agrees that apart from the couple's portraits, the best images from this session are of everyone having fun. Using props at this moment will help you and your loved ones loosen up and get in the happy party spirit. That's why we're suggesting smoke bombs. They have a way of adding romance and color to the moment. They are also incredibly cozy and great for outdoor sessions. You'll get fun images like the one above using smoke bombs.


During your First Dance



Your first dance will be one of the most special moments at your wedding. A fireworks display at this point would take that moment and make it iconic. We can just see how beautiful the pictures would look and the smile on everyone’s faces.


At your Reception Exit
