[QUOTE="Browncoat, post: 326095, member: 1061"] Typically (in the US), wedding formal photos are taken after the ceremony and before the reception. The couple gets married, the wedding party does photos, then they take a limo ride to the reception hall. I would label this as "traditional". Some couples are open to having photos done together before the wedding. This obviously gives the photographer infinitely more options and flexibility, but it's not the norm by a long shot. Even today, a lot of couples hold on to the tradition that it's bad luck to see each other before the wedding. I've been successful with getting shots before the wedding of just the bride with others members of the party (bride with bridesmaids, parents, grandparents, etc.), and just the groom with other members. It helps keep things running smoothly and quickly. A good portion of those fancy shots you see on the internet are just models. [/QUOTE]
