While you get prettied up for the big day, don't forget to call in your photographer for some gorgeous getting ready photos, which sometimes end up being the most beautiful in your entire album. We put together 8 must take photos for this session.
Outfit on Hanger

Hang your saree or lehenga skirt on a hanger, preferably with the dupatta flowing down from one side. We love how this shot above combines the magazine with the brides Chura and lehenga- the pop of pink in the cover ties everything together
You could get creative with your hanger and have a customised one saying 'Bride' like the one above with the couples initials

The Veil Shot

Veils make for some of the most stunning photographs ever. These sheer pieces of fabric can be used to play with light and create an absolutely breath taking shot like the one above

Whether it is to fix your earring or just a first look into the mirror once you are ready, mirrors make for fantastic photo ops.

The Dupatta Placing Shot

The first time the dupatta is placed on the brides head is the first time she really transforms from girl to bride. The front shot of the bride as the dupatta is placed on her is a great moment to capture.

After all the bridal finery is in place, don't forget the super essential bridal portrait or beauty shots. You know the kind we mean right- gazing into space , looking pretty while staring at nothing ;)
The fun bridesmaid shot
Bridesmaid helping you get ready shot

We love the idea of having your bridesmaid around when you are getting ready. Get some super creative shots of them all in bathrobes, jumping on the bed or just holding the sign "Just wait till you see her".
