Less than 6 months to go until your big day? You're probably starting to think about how the day will actually run. I've photographed a lot of weddings over the last decade, and while every wedding is different, the timings tend to follow similar patterns. I've put together this guide to help you work out what happens when, so you can plan the day that actually suits you.

Engagement photos, pre-wedding shoot, and practice shoot. Lots of different names for the same thing! But do you need an engagement shoot, and is it worth it? Let's answer some of those questions so that you can make the most out of your photos.

ou might already know the answer to that question, but in case you're still not sure I thought I'd do a little post to help you. The first thing to know is that there's no right or wrong answer. The choice is totally yours and the answer can depend on a number of factors. I won't lie, this post is more weighted to the pros of having a second photographer, but if you're reading this, it's probably because you want some help convincing your other half.
