"Capture the Perfect Angle: Must-Have Shots for the 'Drop & Fly' Wedding Ceremony Moment!"
2017.05.08 published
Drop & Fly Moment, Forever in Your Memories...♡
A super popular performance called [Drop & Fly] at the pool*
[Drop & Fly] connects balloons and weights with ribbons that dissolve in water, and then drops them into the pool.
When this happens, the ribbons that were tied to the weights dissolve in the water, and the balloons float up high into the sky in a spectacular guest-participation performance♡
Although it lasts only a few seconds to a few tens of seconds, the breathtaking sight is definitely something you want to capture in photos♡
In this article, we will introduce some perfect angles to capture [Drop & Fly] that we would like you to ask your photographer to take. Please use this as a reference for photo shooting♩
Angle 1 You Want to Capture in Drop & Fly*
First is this photo♡ A two-shot of the bride and groom with balloons*
Let's capture them in a natural, relaxed smile with balloons in one hand♩
I also want to capture the guests waiting eagerly for the moment of Drop & Fly♡
Just having guests in lovely dresses holding balloons creates a cute scene♡
Angle 3 You Want to Capture in Drop & Fly*
Capturing just the pool at the moment the balloons are dropped, intentionally without people, is also wonderful*
The sparkling water combined with colorful balloons is refreshing and cute♡
The flowers floating on the water surface add to the cuteness♩
Angle 4 You Want to Capture in Drop & Fly*
There are people throwing balloons, those watching the balloons they dropped, those taking photos, and those already looking up at the sky...
The moments when guests are moving differently during this very Drop & Fly event are perfect photo opportunities!
Let’s get a shot centered around the bride and groom♡
Angle 6 You Want to Capture in Drop & Fly*
The sight of guests watching as almost all the balloons are flying away from the pool is also lovely♡
By capturing the bride and groom or guests modestly in the lower part of the photo, the splendor of the balloons stands out*
Angle 5 You Want to Capture in Drop & Fly*
Taking a picture of the balloons soaring high in the sky along with the blue sky is also great♡
A little bit of the wedding venue roof coming into the shot adds a stylish touch*
Angle 7 You Want to Capture in Drop & Fly*
Lastly, what I want to introduce is a video, not a photo! It is highly recommended to record a video from just before Drop & Fly starts to after the balloons have floated up high*
The photographer might be busy, so let's have a close friend or family member take the video♡
Don’t Miss a Second of the Drop & Fly Moment♡
How was that? I think many brides will have the Drop & Fly performance after the ceremony or during the reception*
Prepare a directive for your photographer in advance, saying, “Please be sure to capture this composition♡,” to ensure this fleeting event becomes a forever memory♡
