Wedding Shotlist

Tap a button next to each shot. Everything starts on amber (“Either way”), so you only need to change the ones you feel strongly about:

  • Yes please shots you’d love
  • Either way happy to leave it to me
  • Not for us shots you’d rather skip

Your choices save in this browser as you go.

Group photos

I recommend keeping formal group photos to immediate family. Even with the best ushering, each group variation takes about 5 minutes to gather and frame, so keeping the list to 6 variations (not counting the wedding party) ensures you don’t lose a large chunk of your timeline. That said, if we have extra time on the day for additional combinations, I’ll gladly take them. It’s your day, so your rules!
