Man Boog - Your list was so complete I just e-mailed it to myself.

I found it someplace, and I can't remember where but I emailed it to myself so I just copy/pasted it into the post lol.

I did customize it a bit for myself, but its definitely a big list!

I had a big list and half of it ended up going by the wayside due to time/weather constraints. Some may not be possible, like the family watching the ceremony if you do a church or something because many are very strict about photogs staying in one spot.

If I could do it again, I'd run through Boog's big list and then pick the absolutely must haves and the rest could be gravy.

I would also put someone in charge of B & G family to get everyone corralled for the family pictures you want- someone that knows the family and can git 'er done.
