The first look is when as a couple you see each other for the first time on your wedding day. This intimate moment typically makes for an emotional photo opportunity. Couples shouldn’t even think about the photographer at all. Instead, let the moment unfold while you truly embrace the emotions (tears and all) knowing the photographer will capture every detail along the way.

4. The twirl
