Alright, let’s talk about the technical side without making your eyes glaze over. The right balance between aperture, shutter speed, and ISO is key to capturing those romantic, after-dark moments.

• Aperture: A wider aperture (like f/1.8) lets in more light, which is perfect when the sun’s gone down, but you still want that soft, glowing effect. ✨

• Shutter Speed: The slower the shutter, the more light gets in, but the risk of blur increases. That’s why a good tripod is a must-have to keep things steady!

• ISO: Boosting ISO helps brighten the shot, but too much can make the photo look grainy. The trick is finding the right balance to keep everything clear and bright. 🌟

With these basics in mind, you’ll be ready to work with your photographer to get those nighttime shots just right!

Without the sun to light the way, artificial lighting steps in to create the mood. The right lighting can take your photos from good to stunning.

• Soft flash: This is perfect for adding light without making things too harsh. You want that soft, natural glow, not spotlight vibes.

• Off-camera lighting: Using spotlights or LED panels from different angles helps create depth and make your photos pop.

• Backlighting: Silhouettes with string lights, lanterns, or sparklers behind you? Talk about unforgettable. It adds an extra layer of romance and charm to the moment. ✨

Be sure to chat with your photographer about the lighting setup that fits your vibe and venue best!

If you’ve got a clear sky, the stars and moon can take your photos to the next level. The sky becomes more than just a background—it’s part of the experience.

• Star trails: Long exposure can capture the movement of the stars, creating beautiful streaks of light across the sky.

• The moon: Whether it’s a full moon or just a sliver, the moon’s light adds a natural spotlight to your photos that feels both dramatic and intimate. 🌕

If you’re into stargazing or just want that celestial vibe, talk to your photographer about how to incorporate the sky into your photos.

When the sun sets, the fun begins! Nighttime photography opens up so many creative possibilities—from playing with shadows to creating stunning silhouettes.

• Silhouettes: Positioning yourselves against a light source creates a striking, emotional image that says so much without showing everything.

• Reflections: Use water or shiny surfaces to add an extra layer of creativity to your photos, making them unique and memorable. 🌟
