Timing for Portraits

If you decide to do a "first look" with your betrothed before the ceremony (and I strongly suggest that you do), I am going to advise that you take an hour for "couple portraits" and thirty minutes each for wedding party portraits and immediate family portraits. You will likely look at me like I have two heads. But I promise, the extra time is worth it! Photos like these beauties do not happen in ten minutes!
