120 WEDDING PHOTOS YOU’LL CHERISH FOREVER

It’s a cliché, but it’s true: Your wedding day will fly by. Afterwards, you’ll want pictures (and maybe even video footage) of all the special moments.

Great photographers will help you out by asking for a shot list before the big day. A shot list is a detailed checklist of every moment, detail, and person you want photographed. That’s why we came up with a starter list of 120 photos that you and your new family will treasure for years to come.
