Familiar with Overseas Weddings ♡

"First Meet" is familiar with overseas weddings ♡ The moment when the groom sees the bride in her wedding dress for the first time on the wedding day is so moving! In Japan, capturing the first meet moment in photos is also becoming a hot topic, isn't it? ♩

I want to take a photo of my first meet!

However, unlike overseas where the bride and groom prepare for the wedding separately, many brides in Japan choose their dresses together with their fiancé. So, technically speaking, the reveal of the dress on the wedding day isn't exactly a "first meet".... But still, I want to capture that emotional shot in that pose!!

It's okay if it's not a real first meet! We can take wedding photos with a first meet style ♡ Let's recreate the feelings from that moment when he was moved to see me in my wedding dress for the first time at the dress shop, and take photos in the style of an overseas first meet on the pre-shoot or wedding day ♡

Method 1: Nervously making an entrance from behind!

A classic shot of sneaking up from behind ♡ The expression on the groom's face as he eagerly waits for his bride to appear in her wedding dress is key* You can feel the excitement! ♡

Using the grand staircase at the wedding venue can create a romantic shot that feels like you've become a princess ♡

Of course, it's also fine to switch it up: the bride waiting, and the groom approaching from behind ♡ You'll want to capture both versions ♩

Method 2: On the other side of the door ♡

This shot is often seen in overseas wedding photos ♡ Let's try holding hands while separated by a single door ♡ It expresses the happiness and excitement of having your beloved just on the other side.

Taking the wedding photo in black and white instantly raises the stylish level ♩ It looks like a scene from a movie, lovely＊

A shot with the groom standing in front of the door while the bride stands just a step behind is also good ◎ The groom's pose is important!

Method 3: Just around the corner ♡

Holding hands but unable to see each other ♡ Using walls and corners creates a dramatic atmosphere ♩

Just around this corner, it will be just a moment until you see each other ♡ Looking back at the photos later with him will definitely be exciting and heart-pounding ♩

Method 4: Let's cover the eyes ♡

Sneaking up from behind and playfully covering the groom's eyes is such a charming pose ♡ "I'm not going to show you yet!" "I'm going to let go, okay? Are you ready?" This shot seems to capture a playful conversation unique to the first meet.

It’s nice for the bride to cover the groom's eyes, but it might also be fun to have both of you cover each other's eyes like in this photo ♩ Let's turn around on the count of three, "Ready, set, go!" ♡

Method 5: Facing each other as you enter ♡

It's also a great idea to simply capture the moment as you face each other ♩ It’s like a dance scene from "Beauty and the Beast," lovely＊ The beloved person coming closer makes you emotional and tearful. You might feel like you can’t walk (but then he’ll come to pick you up ♡)
