We capture every moment on camera to capture the sweet memories of the wedding. However, nowadays there is a growing craze to do pre-wedding shoots to capture pre-wedding memories on camera.
Currently, many weddings are celebrated in grand style. There is a growing trend among the youth to enjoy the pre-wedding moments along with shooting photos and videos of sugarplum, turmeric and wedding ceremonies. The emphasis is on pre-wedding shooting. In the past, the bride and groom did not even meet or talk until they got married. However, today's youth are seen capturing important events in life on camera. This has led to an increase in pre-wedding shootings in the last few years, and the demand for photographers and videographers has also increased.
During the pre-wedding shoot, various photo frames, hats, umbrellas, bikes, bicycles, guitars, various types of poetry as well as wedding date signs are used. It is also filmed while taking photos. Couples are given a choice of location according to budget. Couples are informed about exactly which song to shoot, what location is required for it, what method of draperies will be required.
A pre-wedding gift is a unique gift for the newlyweds. Many prefer to have a ‘pre-wedding shoot’ so that the gift will be remembered forever. Shoots take at least two days if there is a remote location. Shooting on the beach or in the fields in rural areas is preferred.
