Did you know why a bride often stands to the left of the groom during the wedding ceremony? Well, it's not a random choice. This tradition has a historical backdrop which is quite fascinating. It goes back to medieval times when the groom needed to keep his right hand - the sword hand, free. This was to ensure that he could defend his bride against any rivals who might attempt to steal her during the ceremony.
&nbsp;
Fast forward to the present day, and this once practical arrangement has now become a beautiful tradition. The groom's right hand is now free not to wield a sword, but to hold his bride's hand, to exchange rings, and to seal their vows of love. It's a fun and symbolic nod to the past, adding a layer of richness to the ceremony.
&nbsp;
As a Vancouver-based wedding photographer, I have witnessed a myriad of such traditions. Each wedding unfolds like a unique tapestry, woven with threads of traditions, some passed down through generations, others newly created. Each one adds depth and context to the celebration, making it a deeply personal and meaningful experience for the couple.
&nbsp;
I consider myself fortunate to be able to capture these special moments and traditions. They offer a fascinating glimpse into the couple's heritage, their values, and their unique love story. Each time I learn something new, it adds another layer to my understanding of weddings, love, and traditions.
&nbsp;
Weddings are more than just ceremonies. They are a celebration of love, a union of two people, and a confluence of traditions and customs that give a glimpse into our past. So, the next time you attend a wedding, look around. You'll be surprised at the rich tapestry of history and tradition that unfolds before your eyes.

The Intriguing History Behind Wedding Traditions #1

A first look is an intimate moment where the bride and groom see each other for the first time on their wedding day, before the ceremony. It is usually arranged with their wedding photographer in a private place away from family and friends, to capture that moment just for them. A first look can be a wonderful way to add some excitement, emotion, and personalization to your wedding day. And we always suggest and recommend having a first look on your wedding day.
&nbsp;
<h2 dir="ltr">Here are some reasons why having a first look on your wedding is a great moment to have: </h2>
<blockquote>
<ul>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
A first look can calm your nerves before the ceremony. If you or your partner are nervous about being in front of people, seeing each other beforehand can help you relax and enjoy the day more. You can also exchange some words of love, support, or even vows during your first look, making it more meaningful.
</li>
</ul>
</blockquote>
&nbsp;
<blockquote>
<ul>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
It can save you time by taking most of your photos before the ceremony. This way, you don't have to rush through your portraits after saying "I do", and you can spend more time with your guests during cocktail hour or reception. You can also get more creative with your photos, as you have more flexibility with lighting and location.
</li>
</ul>
&nbsp;
<ul>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
A first look can capture some amazing emotions that you might not get otherwise. The anticipation, surprise, joy, and love that you feel when you see each other for the first time on your wedding day are priceless. Your photographer can document these expressions in candid shots that will become cherished memories for years to come.
</li>
</ul>
&nbsp;
<ul>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
A first look can make your ceremony more special. Contrary to what some people might think, having a first look does not spoil the magic of walking down the aisle. In fact, it can enhance it by making you more confident and comfortable in front of your guests. You can also focus more on the meaning of your vows and commitment than on how you look or what others think.
</li>
</ul>
&nbsp;
<ul>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
A first look can be personalized to suit your style and preferences. There are no rules or expectations for how a first look should be done. You can choose any location that is meaningful or beautiful to you, such as a park, a garden, or even a train stop. You can also invite some key witnesses if you want to share this moment with them, or keep it just between yourselves if you prefer privacy. You can even do a non-reveal if you want to spend some time together without seeing each other yet.
</li>
</ul>
&nbsp;
</blockquote>
Having a first look on your wedding is a great moment that offers many benefits for both you and your partner. It is not only an opportunity to take stunning photos but also an emotional experience that will make your wedding day more memorable and personal.

What is a First Look? (aka the Reveal)

Capturing your special moments with authenticity and grace.

You will find the about page from my existing website between the “” below. You can use this section primarily for tone of voice and style as opposed to content. Make sure that all references to the self are in the first person singular, as I am the only photographer on my team. Please also ensure that there are no references to “our team” or “our photographer”. Instead, all writing should be coming directly from me. I would also like it to be quite down to earth and without lots of fluff and flowery language.
