Tips to Pose Gracefully for Your Wedding Video

If you’ve been searching Pinterest, Instagram, or wedding periodicals, you may be intimidated by wedding shoots or a wedding video. Videos and photoshoots are forgiving and your candid personalities are naturally beautiful and how you want to remember your wedding day. If you want a few more tips on how to best prepare, here are some of our top tips.

Keep Calm

From the beginning, you need to let your photographer or videographer know your character. To convey your character in your wedding video, you need to keep calm. In personality shots, this will allow your photographer or videographer to have a good idea of how to bring out the best in you. For the mellow types, we’ll focus on more candid and romantic poses. At the end of the day, we want you to relax, enjoy the moment, and be yourself. This way they can capture who you are and the rest of the pieces will fit together brilliantly.

Bring an Accessory

Some people don’t want to be the center of attention, so purposely bringing an accessory can distract the camera and better convey your character. It is especially recommended to provide pretty props like a giant balloon or something that means something to you and the groom like a favorite food together. While you two are doing your thing, this would invite as many good video shots as possible. After that, you’ll probably feel comfortable with your photographer or videographer taking more natural shots of you.

Stand Up Straight

If you’re shy, you might be inclined to crouch down to avoid the spotlight. But remember that the harder you try, the better you will look. Shy people can have the appearance of a double chin. To prevent this, you can stretch your neck by standing. If you want to make a conscious effort to do this, move your head forward a bit and tilt your chin down. Want another quick tip for stretching your neck? Use your tongue to touch the roof of your mouth.

Smile Often

Smiling all day can make you feel tired. You might be tempted also to try that trendy supermodel with a stern face. But remember, it’s the wedding and you don’t want to look annoying at the wedding reception. Just smile with your eyes. This is harder to fake, so it sends a positive vibe that you are truly happy. It also playfully signals that you are happy, but don’t give everything away with a big smile. At the end of the day, give your lips a break with this one!

Smiles can get old as the evening goes on, and a fake smile can start to look unflattering. Melt those lips by laughing instead. Even if you fake it, the sheer ridiculousness of it will likely make your partner laugh. And laughter is contagious, which means you might even laugh yourself. If you change that smile, your marriage will be much more interesting to create.…
