for Couples Who Want Joy Over Chaos, Champagne Over Checklists, And Presence Over Pressure.
let’s Get One Thing Straight: You Deserve To Have A Wedding Day That Feels Like You. Not Like A Pinterest Board Exploded. Not Like You’re Starring In A Reality Show Called “who’s Melting Down First?” Just You, Your Partner, Your People, And A Whole Lotta Love. As Someone Who’s Seen Weddings From The Inside Out (hi, I’m Jamie—a Colorado Wedding Photographer Who’s Third-wheeled More Love Stories Than I Can Count), I’m Here To Give You The Real, Un-googleable Tips That’ll Help You Actually Enjoy Your Wedding Day. Like, Stress-free And Fun. Yes, It’s Possible. Let’s Break It Down.
1. Mindset First: your Wedding Isn’t A Performance
one Of The Biggest Mindset Shifts I Encourage Couples To Make Early On Is This: Your Wedding Is Not A Production—it’s A Celebration. Here’s How To Start Rewiring Your Brain For That:unfollow Pressure-inducing Content: If Wedding Tiktok Or Certain Instagram Accounts Make You Feel Behind, Unworthy, Or Overwhelmed, It’s Time To Mute Or Unfollow. Create Space For Inspiration, Not Anxiety. Daily 5-minute Mindfulness Check-ins: Starting A Month Before The Wedding, Set A Timer For 5 Minutes A Day. Breathe. Visualize How You Want To Feel On Your Wedding Day (calm, Connected, Present—whatever Your Vibe Is). That Feeling Is Your North Star. Let It Guide Your Decisions. Adopt A ‘good Enough Is Great’ Mantra: Perfection Is A Myth. Let That Go Now, And Replace It With “this Is Meaningful To Us, And That’s Enough.”

After Celebrating Their Wedding On Lake Como, This Couple Chose Venice As The Perfect Destination For Their Honeymoon. Few Places In The World Capture Romance And Timeless Beauty Quite Like This City On The Water.
Their Stay At The Hotel Gritti Palace Set The Tone: A Refined Retreat Overlooking The Grand Canal, Where History And Luxury Meet. We Started Their Honeymoon Session At The Gritti’s Riva Lounge, A Setting That Blends Elegance With The Unique Atmosphere Of Venetian Life On The Water.
From There, The Couple Embarked On An Unforgettable Excursion Aboard A Classic Riva Boat—one Of The Most Iconic And Beautiful Boats Ever Built. Cruising Through The Lagoon At Golden Hour, They Enjoyed Breathtaking Views Of Venice From A Perspective That Only The Water Can Offer.
As Their Photographer, I Focused On Capturing Not Only The Stunning Scenery But Also The Intimacy And Joy Of Those First Days As Newlyweds. Between Candid Laughter, Quiet Moments Of Connection, And The Cinematic Backdrop Of Venice, The Result Was A Series Of Photographs That Feel Both Timeless And Deeply Personal.
A Honeymoon In Venice Is Not Just About The Setting, But About The Memories You Create Together. For This Couple, The Gritti Palace, The Riva Lounge, And The Venetian Lagoon Offered The Perfect Stage For Their Love Story To Begin Its New Chapter.

Well Save This Nugget Of Info Cause I'm Gonna Tell Ya! 😂golden Hour Is About An Hour-45 Minutes Before The Sun Sets (or Before The Sun Officially Rises In The Morning). It's The Time Where The Sun Shines Golden Light (hence The Name Golden Hour), Making Everything Warm And Glowy, Making Hair And Skin Tones Beautiful, And Exuding Romance & Peaceful Vibes ✨perfect Example Are These Ones From K& R's Dreamy Classic Wedding At Coutts Centre For Western Canadian Heritage! We Headed Outside At Around 8:30/9ish (but In The Fall And Winter Months, Much Earlier Than That) And That's Where The Magic Happened!golden Hour Or Sunset Photos Not Only Make My Lil Creative Photographer Heart Happy, But They Add A Dash Of Swoony Romance To Your Gallery And End Up Being Your Favorite Photos Of The Day 🥰

Sometimes, It's The Quietest Moments That Leave The Biggest Impression.this Photo Was Taken Just Outside Bern, Switzerland, During A Peaceful Walk The Couple Took After Their Ceremony. I Sent My Drone Up For Just A Few Minutes — And What I Captured Felt Like Magic. Their Shadows Became The Focus, Holding Hands, Moving As One. It Felt Symbolic And Deeply Romantic.i Kept It In Black And White To Highlight The Emotion, The Simplicity, And The Contrast Between Light And Shadow. No Distractions — Just Two People, Deeply In Love, Framed By Nature.it’s Moments Like This That Remind Me Why I Do What I Do.
