    How to use it

    How to use the wedding photo shot list

    1. 1

      Tick the must-haves

      Go section by section; skip anything your photographer covers by default.

    2. 2

      Add family names

      Add custom shots like "Mom's side, grandparents" so the photographer can call people up.

    3. 3

      Copy or print

      Send the list to your photographer and your shot-caller (a friend who knows the family).

    4. 4

      Cover the rest with guests

      Add a guest photo QR code for everything the photographer can't be everywhere for.

    Why it works

    Why use a wedding photo shot list?

    A shot list protects the photos you can't recreate: the specific family groupings, a grandparent's portrait, a detail with meaning. Photographers are excellent at candid coverage; they can't know your family tree.

    Keep it short and specific. The longer the list, the more time your photographer spends ticking boxes instead of catching real moments. Share the family section with a friend who can round people up quickly.

    No photographer catches everything. Guests are at every table and on the dance floor long after the photographer leaves, and a photo-sharing QR code brings those photos into one album.

    FAQ

    Wedding Photo Shot List FAQ

    What should be on a wedding photo shot list?+

    Key moments (aisle walk, vows, kiss, first dance), family groupings, couple portraits and details such as rings and decor. Focus on family groupings; photographers capture the rest naturally.

    Should I give my photographer a shot list?+

    A short one, yes, especially for family group photos with names. Avoid a 200-shot list; it pulls your photographer away from candid moments.

    How do I get photos the photographer misses?+

    Ask guests. A photo-sharing QR code collects everyone's candids, dance-floor videos and after-party shots in one album.

    Is my list saved?+

    Yes, on this device. Copy it or print it to share.
