A favourite photograph often brings back the reason you were laughing. Before booking pre-wedding photography in Hong Kong, choose a few images separately and talk about what draws you to them: the light, the setting, the clothes or the ease between the couple. Add one or two places that mean something to you. These details give a photographer more to work with than a long collection of unrelated poses.
Ask for a written breakdown of shooting hours, locations, outfits, hair and make-up, transport, location charges, image numbers, retouching and delivery. Check the cost of extra images, additional time, accessories and postponement. If you want photographs for a welcome display or wedding film, work backwards from the printing or editing deadline and leave room for selecting images and reviewing a revision.
Plan the route around walking, changing, toilets and rest as well as scenery. Confirm who checks any booking or permission requirements with the location manager. Agree a rain or severe-weather alternative, a decision time and what happens to payments if the session moves. A few nearby places you love can leave more time to enjoy being together.
For the day, prepare pressed clothes, comfortable walking shoes, water and touch-up essentials. Decide who brings the bouquet and looks after bags. Tell the photographer if a pose or interaction feels uncomfortable. Before signing, ask whether images may be used in publicity, how to decline that use, and what downloading, storage and printing rights you receive. May the photographs bring you back to the way you felt with one another.
One small place to begin
Choose three reference photographs, write what you like about each, and share your earliest print or film deadline with the team.
