Anything special you want to add to your wedding photos?

It's nice to incorporate some things that make you who you are. Using personal items as props add a special flair to your wedding photos. Anything you can think of that you would like photos of you with? (example: are you into music? maybe your favorite album or an instrument. Perhaps a family heirloom. Something of your partner's that you might like to incorporate into your wedding photos.) Anything can be used as a prop for your wedding images! Little details are the best! ex: your necklace was your great grandmother’s that she wore on her wedding day! When we know these details, we can make sure that we capture everything that has sentimental value to you!

Do you have a hashtag for guests to use if they post photos?
