Regarding planning, we’re firmly in the “You do you!” camp. We have a lot of tips for telling your family and friends about your wedding plans. Wedding vendors are aware of some wedding trends that they would rather you avoid.
It’s not that they are “tacky,” “not cool,” or anything else. This is only to ensure that this trend will protect your wedding photos.
Stop the trend: wedding bubbles.
“Huh? It seems like a non-controversial topic. Let me explain…
As a photographer, I get a little queasy when I hear that the couple will have their guests blow bubbles while they return down the aisle after their first kiss. Why? Why?
My camera will likely be covered with bubble suds. If bubbles come close to the camera, they could pop and soak my lenses in soap. Soapy filters will be applied to photos taken after this (until your lens is cleaned properly). This will cause images to fog up and change colors. Remember that the moment is very brief, and photographers must walk backward while focusing on a couple. The photographers don’t get much time to look out for bubbles.
When there are a lot of bubbles between the photographer and brides and grooms, it can be difficult to concentrate on the couple. This is, of course, a secondary complaint. Good wedding photographers should have the ability to capture magical moments even in the most difficult of circumstances. Why make the job of your photographer more difficult? You can help your photographer take the best photos possible by avoiding bubbles.
Bubble Alternatives
You can also throw other fun and eco-friendly options (remember that bubbles are almost always packaged in disposable plastic tubes). These items won’t cover your photographer’s lens with soap.
