The ‘Best’ First Kiss Angle!

First Kiss in Auckland Church

For the last few weddings I have photographed, I have changed up how I shoot my first kiss. Traditionally, I would capture the first kiss from the middle of the aisle, looking up towards the alter at the bride and groom. But recently I was inspired by others in the wedding photography industry to stand from the point of view of the celebrant in order to capture this image. Here are a few of my most recent ‘first kiss’ snaps…

I love how you get to see the guests cheering and celebrating in the background, the real and raw emotion is beautiful
