1. It may seem obvious... but scheduling a consultation with your photographer prior to your wedding allows them to get to know you, and get a sense of the style of photography you like. This can also be a great time to review the photographer's past work, and share photos of yourself that you like and dislike so the photographer can begin planning which angles would be best to shoot from. An engagement session can also be a great trial run.
2. Ask your photographer to take photos of the location, food, and decor. After spending months carefully planning these details, it is all-too-easy for a bride to miss the execution of these little things in the flurry of the wedding and reception. Having the details on film not only gives a better sense of the event as a whole, but will remind you of these aspects down the road.
3. Make sure to take candid shots... not just of you and the bridal party, but also of your guests. While formal photographs of the wedding are certainly a large part of a photography package, photos of you and your guests in candid celebration allows you to remember these moments and who was apart of them, more than posed photos alone.
