First Look Ideas for Your Wedding or Micro Wedding
When many people think of a first look, it is when two partners see each other before their wedding for the first time, BUT a first look can happen with many different family members or groups of people. '
For example a first look can happen with the bridesmaids, mother of the bride, father of the bride, and if you are a parent, you can even have a first look with your children!
First looks are wonderful to have because of the emotion that stirs up in the photos. Here are some tips and tricks to make the most out of your first look shots!

First Look With Your Partner
The classic first look can be done with your partner during a bridal session prior to your wedding or during your wedding day. This is an intimate moment that lets you react genuinely in privacy, rather than in front of your whole wedding party whilst walking down the aisle.
You can also do a first look with the people who brought you into the world…
First Look with Mom
If your mom is like my mom, get ready for some waterworks to happen when it comes to photographing the mother and daughter first look. This moment is great for capturing emotion. Some other shots with mom can be helping zip up the wedding dress or fixing the veil, as well.
