Not sure where to start when looking through your provisional wedding photo album to give it the OK? This list of questions should give you all the answers you're looking for...
Does the order of the pictures reflect the events as they happened on the day? In other words, does the album tell a visual story?
Does it include any set of identical shots that could be swapped for alternatives?
Are there any important moments or events missing? Check that each part of the day is included – from getting ready in the morning, right through to to the speeches and the first dance, of course!
Have you included everyone who is important to you? And is there a good balance of both sides of the family?
Is there a good mix of formal and more natural, candid shots?
Have you achieved diversity in terms of the kinds of shots, eg guest and couple portraits, close-ups and wide shots, serious/emotive, and fun?
What about colour? Are you happy with the mix of black and white, colour and sepia tone shots?
Have you included a group shot to document who was there on the day?
Are there any photos with minor flaws that could be swapped for better ones? Maybe someone's got their eyes closed in the picture but there's another similar shot where they don't?
Have you captured all the little details that make the day memorable, such as an outside shot of the venue, close-ups of the flowers, favours and centrepieces?
Is your (and your hubby's) favourite shot included?
