One of perhaps the most important investments you will make on your wedding day is the money spent on your photographer. The moments that are captured by a great wedding photographer will help to make  the quick fleeting moments of your big day be forever fresh in your thoughts and memory. One of the biggest questions that a lot of brides have is the one of Which moments should I specially ask my photographer to capture?

I have created a list below of some of the most common and the most important wedding day photos.

1. The bride alone in her gown, now this can be on the actual wedding day or a session that is created just for this purpose.

2. The groom alone, now again this can be done in a session arranged on a day other than the wedding day but, not with the bride so that the surprise of her gown can be preserved.

3. Bride and Groom together, commonly done on the wedding day before or after the ceremony.

4. Brides Parents with the Bride
