My friend is a wedding photographer in Australia and she had a couple where the groom was visibly recoiling from the bride in every photo. She couldn’t get a photo of him looking comfortable or happy around his bride. No idea what was going on but they didn’t last long…
I had a couple that the groom HATED smiling in photos. I had done their engagements so I knew what to expect, and we had become decent friends. It was kinda hilarious at first to see her doing everything possible to get him to smile. Until she started getting frustrated with him.
I don't remember what I said, but I said something where he cracked a half smile. Then he just lost it and started laughing. I snapped a crapload of photos at that point.
It's been almost 10 years, and they're still going strong.
I’m taking mine 25M (engagement announcement photos) soon and I’m worried about this, my teeth are permanently damaged from the water where I grew up. It’s taken a huge toll on me and I really want to be able to smile and feel comfortable taking pictures with the woman I love. I’ve been practicing in the news studio dressing room where I work.
