Hi Hive,

How long did your photography take?

Here is what I’m working with.

The photographer is going to do guys and girls pics seperately before hand. As well as my pictures with my parents.

After the ceremony we are doing a couple of pictures with grandparents at the church (there are only my grandparents and their mobility isn’t good enough to get to our photo location) I’m thinking this will take no more than 15 minutes.

Then we have photos with his family, my family, the wedding party as a whole and just the two of us. Our families aren’t huge (not a lot of children, and the siblings are all in the wedding party). I have a schedule made out of the pictures that are being taken. It is very methodical. As well, my brother’s girlfriend is going to ‘coordinate’ by calling out names and getting people ready for the photographer.

We aren’t doing tons of photos (i’m not really into all the cliche poses)

Any thoughts on how long this is going to take after the ceremony?

Ask your photographer – ours had a good sense of this. I’d say more like 30 minutes. We had a similar schedule and that’s what ours took. Also, make sure you tell your photographer exactly how you want your photos. I didn’t want cliche poses either and we got a lot of great relaxed shots of groups.
