Capture your honeymoon
The wedding is over. And next stop is your honeymoon. You no longer have a professional photographer capturing your every move but you still want great photos of your trip. Now, you are your own photographer. Here’s a quick lesson on getting in front of and behind the camera.

|
Dress comfortably Sure, you want to look cute but make sure you’re comfortable too. If you’re wearing high-heels balancing on a rock to capture a scenic view, get ready for a photo of a breathtaking backdrop with you in a stiff, awkward pose. Remember, pictures don’t lie. |
|
Ask strangers to take your picture People love taking snapshots of newlyweds. Especially if you’re willing to return the favor. |
|
Bring a travel tripod An easy, packable tripod is flexible and can stand on just about anything. Perfect for remote places. |
|
Keep it at arm’s length Extend your arm to take a fun, playful close-up shot. |
|
Go solo Take pictures of each other. You can always arrange them in your photo book to show you were together. |
|
Shoot landscape and objects You’ll want to remember things as you experience them so take pictures of scenery, landmarks or interesting objects that catch your eye. It will help tell your honeymoon story. |
|
Protect your most valuable asset—your camera. Sun, sand and water can harm the camera lens. Make sure you keep it well-covered and protected. |
|
Bring your camera battery charger and memory sticks It’s frustrating to run out of battery life and memory on your trip. Pack your charger and extra sticks. |
|
Don’t overdo it. Put the camera down. Yes, you heard us right. It’s your honeymoon. This is your alone time together so cherish it, relax and don’t feel pressured to capture every single moment. |

Learn to purge You took a lot of pictures but not every single photo needs to go in your photo book. Pick the one that best represents the moment. |
|
Tell a story We know you’re a beautiful couple. But every picture doesn’t need both of you in it. Alternate photos of you and your husband with more scenic, landscape shots. Or photos of unusual, beautiful or interesting things you came across during your trip, such as an open-air market of exotic fruits, funny road signs or a simple starfish on the beach. |
