I was wondering if anyone has done First Look photos before their wedding? Did you regret it at all?  If you didn't do First Look photos do you wish you did now?  Just wondering since I am still deciding on what I want to do.  I just blogged about it too check out some cool First Look photos that I found online!

I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE the idea of First Look Photos but we decided not to do them!  I kind of wish I had but I also loved the idea of him seeing me for the first time walking down the aisle!  It's a hard decision!  Talk it over with your hubby and decide what you both want.

We decided kind of at the last minute to do one and I am so glad we did.  All the stress just melted away instantly.  I have photos of our first look in my married bio under Reveal.

As a wedding photog, I encourage all my couples to do a first look. Some choose to do it, others don't. Those who chose to do it never regret it.

As a bride myself, we're doing a first look. The sentimental side of me wants him to see me for the first time walking down the isle. The professional side of me knows how beneficial the first look is. FI is pretty shy, and I feel like by doing a first look we'll get much more relaxed and natural photos.
