How to plan your gay wedding photography (Lesbian couples)

Double brides, double the love, and double the fun! How to plan your lesbian wedding photography to capture every beautiful moment of your special day.

Choosing the right wedding photographer
1

Choose a Photographer Who Celebrates Lesbian Couples

Look for photographers who actively photograph and affirm lesbian weddings, showing a range of feminine, masculine, and androgynous expressions in their work.

2

Honor Your Individual and Shared Identities

Whether you’re feminine, masculine, both, or neither—there is no right or wrong way to show up. Your wedding photos should reflect who you truly are, not outside expectations.

3

Decide How You Want to Be Seen Together

Talk about whether you want romantic, playful, editorial, soft, bold, or documentary images so your photographer captures your dynamic intentionally.

4

Choose Outfits That Empower You

Wear dresses, suits, jumpsuits, or a mix—whatever makes you feel confident and beautiful. Comfort and self-assurance always photograph better than tradition.

5

Coordinate Styles Without Limiting Expression

Aim for harmony in color, texture, or formality while allowing each partner’s style—masc, femme, or fluid—to shine independently.

6

Embrace Poses That Reflect Your Connection

Walking hand-in-hand, gentle touches, leaning into each other, forehead kisses, or shared laughter often feel more natural than rigid posing.

7

Mix Strength and Softness in Posing

Combine confident stances with intimate moments—standing tall together, sitting close, holding hands, or quiet eye contact—to create emotional balance.

8

Create Space for Private Couple Portraits

Plan time away from guests so you can relax, be present, and connect freely without feeling watched or judged.

9

Let Go of Outside Opinions

This is your day. Your love, your joy, and your authenticity matter more than anyone else’s expectations or commentary.

10

Trust the Process and Enjoy Each Other

When you focus on celebrating your love instead of how you look, your photos naturally become more powerful, genuine, and timeless.
