Family wedding photo ideas: inspiration for your big day
Fun ideas for your wedding photos
Weddings are a tapestry of hope and emotion. It's always incredible seeing couples celebrate and commit their lives to one another. This is a time full of joy and expectation, so why do so many people end up with boring, staged wedding photos?
People grouped together in lines, the bride's family, the groom's family, the school friends - all standing and smiling with the enthusiasm of a school class photo. That isn't what wedding photos are supposed to be!
I believe everybody deserves fun and exciting wedding photos that truly represent the wedding day's atmosphere. Read on to find out more and see how you can bring joy to family and friends with your wedding photos.

The solution to no awkward family wedding photo: candid photography
Candid, documentary-style wedding photos are increasingly popular. They're a more natural representation of your celebration and capture the unique vibe of your day.
Of course, you can still have a traditional family wedding photos list and get each of the requisite groups together for photos at your wedding. But for truly fun family wedding photos, the best idea is to book a rad photographer and let them run free to capture all the joy of your loved ones.
How can you get fun wedding photos for all your family and friends?
You're probably not the only ones who will want to see the photos from your day. Friends and relatives for years to come will ask to see photos from your wedding. And, often, they will really be asking 'show me a photo from your wedding that has me in it'.
One way to achieve this is with a family wedding photos list. If the photographer can work from a list of necessary family wedding photo opportunities, they can ensure that all the important people at your wedding are immortalised in photographic form.
Can the guests do anything to ensure there are fun family wedding photos?
Usually, you can leave everything to do with the wedding photos up to the wedding photographer. With my candid wedding photography approach, guests can spend their time at the wedding doing what they do best, partying, celebrating, and having fun! Of course, guests can request photos whenever they like, but with a candid photographer on hand, there should certainly be no pressure in needing to do so.
