Did you know that there are taboos in taking pre-wedding photos? We all know that we must look good in the photo but what would make us look bad? As a way to help you have the perfect, best, and excellent wedding photo, we would like to let you know about the prohibitions in pre-wedding photoshoot.
Before taking photoshoot
1. Avoid cutting hair
One month before the wedding photoshoot, it is better not to cut your hair, otherwise it will be very difficult for the hair stylist to do the hairstyle. Similarly, avoid using hairspray by yourself on the day of the photoshoot.
2. Avoid drinking too much water
When drinking too much water, it will cause swelling on your face. As a result, the makeup would not be obedient. This will affect your overall look and may result in dissatisfaction toward the photo. Thus, do not drink too much water the night before the shooting.
3. Avoid skipping breakfast
Having a pre-wedding photoshoot is very tiring, and it usually lasts for several hours. Thus, if you do not eat breakfast in the morning, hypoglycaemia is likely to occur which may cause your schedule to be delayed. Some of them skip breakfast because they wish to look slimmer in the photo, but you do not need to eat too much, you can also bring some food to replenish energy during shooting.
4. Avoid stay up late before the day of shooting
You should get as much rest as possible the day before the shooting because staying up late will negatively impact how you look at the following day. For instance, you will seem exhausted the following day if you stay up late. .
On the day of taking photoshoot
1. Do not hunched
Majority couples nowadays choose a candid theme for their wedding photo because it looks more natural. At the same time, the candid means that you will not be asked for any pose. Hence, keep in mind that only a straight waist can make the bride look energetic and temperamental. Although it is a candid photo, make sure that your pose and limb is looking good.
2. Never make inappropriate pose
Postures such as crossing your legs and putting your hands on your hips should not be used because it will make you look not elegant. It will be even better if you refer to the poses from others before the shooting day so that you will not be at a loss.
3. Arms and legs should not be parallel
Whether you choose a sitting or standing posture for wedding photos, do not make your arms or legs parallel, because it will make people feel stiff and mechanical. A certain arc can be formed between the arms and legs, so that it will look more relaxed.
4. Mind you sitting posture
When shooting by sitting posture, do not sit your whole body into the chair as usual. Otherwise, the thighs will be at rest, causing the fat portion of the thighs to stand out and give the appearance of thick legs. The correct way to take a wedding photo is to move your body forward, sit close to the edge of the chair, keep your chest up, and pull your abdomen in.
5. Avoid attire that is not fit
Do not try to wear beautiful clothes that are not suitable for you. For example, a small bride should not wear a long skirt with a tail, as it will make her look shorter. This is one of the prohibitions in pre-wedding photoshoot that have always been neglected by the couple.
