Pre-wedding photo shoots have become increasingly popular in recent years, providing an opportunity for couples to capture memories of their engagement period. While stunning backdrops are important to set the mood and atmosphere, they should not be the sole focus of your pre-wedding photos. Here's why:

Fun pre-wedding photo captured by Chris Ling Photography - A couple in casual attire, with the groom holding a small guitar, share a joyful moment in a themed cafe setting as the bride looks lovingly at him.
  1. The background will fade, but your love story won't: The background is simply a setting, it will change over time, but the love and emotion captured in your pre-wedding photos will remain timeless. The real focus of your pre-wedding photos should be on the two of you and your love story.

  2. You are the main attraction: Your pre-wedding photos are about capturing the connection and love between you and your partner. The background should simply enhance this connection, rather than detract from it. You should be the main attraction in your pre-wedding photos, not the background.

  3. All that matters are the memories: Pre-wedding pictures are a great opportunity to capture the memorable moments leading up to your big day. They ought to be an expression of your love story and who you are as a couple. You run the danger of forgetting the main point of your engagement images by concentrating too much on the surroundings.

  4. Uniqueness is key: Everyone wants distinctive and creative pre-wedding photos, but if you concentrate too much on the background, you run the risk of having pictures that seem just like those of other couples. Your personalities and your love story should come through in your pre-wedding images, not just the setting.

Chris Ling Photography captures a unique pre-wedding moment - A couple, both film directors, wear casual attire and a wedding veil as scripts fly in the air, telling their love story through the lens of their shared passion.

Finally, even while the background of your pre-wedding images should be considered, it shouldn't take centre stage. Instead, you should concentrate on portraying the affection and bond you share with your companion. Remember that your engagement and love story are the subjects of your pre-wedding images, not just a gorgeous backdrop.
