finding a unique spot

If you read photographer's blogs, you'll see a lot of the same thing--wedding party photos downtown, at the beach, at church. Don't get me wrong, I love an urban photo shoot, but what about making the photos special to you? Incorporating a special location into your photos will make them unique + personal.

If you travel often, this plane lends a nice backdrop. If you met at a coffee shop or your university's library, I like the idea of using those locations as a backdrop for wedding party photos. And if you're high school sweethearts, what about the football stadium where you spent Friday nights with all your friends? Find a unique location, and make time to get there on your wedding day--you'll be happy you did.
