"I Don't Want to Be Monotonous♡ A Collection of Unique 'Preparation Shots' Beyond Standard Angles"

Aim for♡ A Slightly Unusual Getting Ready Shot!

Capture the bride during her final preparations in the bridal room before the ceremony, putting on her dress and makeup＊

This moment, just before the wedding begins, can capture the beautiful tension of the occasion♡

Such getting ready shots typically include:

- Applying lipstick

- Putting on earrings (or piercings)

- Wearing bridal shoes

- Putting on the veil

These compositions are standard.

However, while browsing Instagram, I discovered many brides who are captured in slightly unusual getting ready shots that go beyond the standard♡

So this time, I'll introduce ways to take non-traditional getting ready shots, so please include them in your instructions＊

Unusual Getting Ready Shot ① The Moment of Putting on Gloves

Are you planning to wear hand gloves during the ceremony???

If so, it's highly recommended to capture the moment you’re putting on the gloves＊

Let’s take both a close-up version and a full-body version!♡

Unusual Getting Ready Shot ② The Hands Take Center Stage...!

The shot of putting on earrings is a classic,

but this wedding photo features the bride's hands in focus＊

The engagement ring and wedding ring shine beautifully! A getting ready shot where the hands take center stage is quite rare♩

Unusual Getting Ready Shot ③ The Moment of Buttoning Up

For brides who have chosen a wedding dress with a covered button design on the back,

let’s capture the moment when a stylist is buttoning them up one by one♡

Of course, brides with a lace-up ribbon style can also have a beautiful shot taken while tying the ribbons＊

Unusual Getting Ready Shot ④ Directly Looking at the Camera!

When taking getting ready shots, it’s usually the norm to divert your gaze from the camera and look down or to the side＊

However, as shown by this bride, it’s also cute to take a photo while looking directly at the camera while putting on earrings♡

You might be able to capture your favorite shot♩

Unusual Getting Ready Shot ⑤ A View from a Distance, Showing Your Back

Capturing the bride from a little distance, showing her back as she puts on earrings in front of a mirror is quite rare＊

The antique-style dresser, decorations, and chandelier reflected in the mirror all add to the charm♡

The atmosphere feels like a scene from a fairy tale♩

Unusual Getting Ready Shot ⑥ Practicing the Walk

Once the bride’s preparations are perfectly complete, many brides seem to practice their walk toward the ceremony＊

Capturing the moment when she receives instructions on how to walk from the staff can also be beautiful♡

Looking back later at this moment, you can reminisce about how nervous you were, or how excited you were to walk down the aisle◎

In Short, Have a Variety of Getting Ready Shots Taken♡

I’ve introduced ways to capture slightly unusual getting ready shots beyond the standard angles＊

Brides about to experience their weddings may feel nervous before the ceremony,

but to vividly remember every moment later, it’s recommended to have various getting ready shots taken♡

May you capture wonderful getting ready shots!
