Chronicling your adventure shouldn't be left to the whims of chance. As experienced wedding photographers, Jess and I understand the nuances of capturing your unique love story. We are no strangers to the anxiety that may arise just thinking about setting up a timeline. This blog will share insight on what many people choose to include in a wedding day timeline. We feel privileged to capture the cherished moments that make your wedding day.
&nbsp;
From stolen glimpses to the tender exchange of vows, our goal is to crystallize countless emotions, turning your day into an unforgettable chapter in your love journey. You have undoubtedly put a lot of time and effort into selecting elements to display your style and vision. It should come as no secret that a well-crafted timeline will ensure that your photographer captures the best moments in the beautiful environment you have crafted. You and your guests will also benefit from anticipating every step of your day as it develops.&nbsp; Here at Louvenir Photography, we cherish the 'Getting Ready' moments as much as the grand ceremony. Our personal and relaxed approach ensures that your story is told vividly through our lenses.
&nbsp;
The truth is that no wedding is the same. Every wedding has its character and personality because it's composed of you as unique individuals who bring their parts to develop the story of your wedding day. From intimate elopements to grand celebrations, we tailor our photography to your unique style and preferences. For example, at a recent wedding, the bride informed us that their niece would be singing a traditional song that had ancestral significance for them. This kind of personalized detail is what we strive to capture, making your wedding album as unique as your love story.
&nbsp;
We included that detail in the timeline to anticipate the subtle but significant shift in the action during their ceremony. With that in mind, we understand that the timeline templates you may come across will need modifications. We will always encourage you to sit down with us and your wedding planner to ensure we include elements essential to your story in your timeline. Allowing us to be part of this process ensures that we help you recapture all the time needed to allow the souvenirs of your day to emerge naturally without making you feel rushed.
&nbsp;
In the following section, we will present you with a timeline that may fit about 85% of most weddings, with some editing to be more tailored to you and your vision.

This schedule detailed above is more than a timeline; it's a storyboard for your day. This schedule detailed above could develop into the storyblocks we will describe below to give you a broad idea of how your day could develop. As you read, please remember that these hours are suitable for a wedding day around late spring, summer, or early fall. The daylight changes depending on the season you select, and your ceremony and golden hour portraits may need to be revised depending on your vision for the day. Summer days, for example, give you much more available daylight to play with. We expertly adapt to these variations, ensuring that your photos always reflect the moment's beauty, regardless of the time of year.
&nbsp;
A warm climate may bring high heat temperatures that you may need to asses while making timeline decisions. Our experience in Boston's varied weather ensures we're prepared for any conditions, guaranteeing stunning photos, rain or shine. Consider giving extra time between events to avoid heat fatigue for you and your guests, which is especially vital in the bustling summer months of Boston.
&nbsp;
We are always glad to help you with suggestions based on our experience and research about climate and daylight hours. Still, the decision is ultimately yours, and we adapt accordingly. Our adaptability is vital in creating a seamless experience for our clients.
&nbsp;
The first section of your photographic journey starts long before the ceremony. Our approach is to blend in, capturing candid moments that reflect the genuine excitement and anticipation of the day. From 12:00 p.m. to 2:30 p.m., We capture your family's expectations and excitement as you and your bridesmaids get ready. We keep in mind the minor, intimate details that often go unnoticed but add so much to the story of your day. These candid images, from makeup photos to detail shots, add depth to your wedding story. It's also when we capture the heartfelt first look with the bride's father and or mother, a moment often filled with tears and laughter.
&nbsp;
Next, we have the optional first look for you two from 2:40 p.m. to 3:15 p.m. Many charmed moments arise during this time, and we ensure we capture it with the utmost care and discretion, allowing you to immerse in the moment's emotion fully. This part of the day frankly sets the tone for the rest of the event, and capturing the couple's genuine emotions during their first look is a moment we always look forward to. Our experience in Boston's unique landscapes adds a layer of beauty to these photos.
&nbsp;
We will give you some space and time to enjoy this beautiful, intimate moment while you bask in the love that has brought you to this day.&nbsp;&nbsp;
The third section, from 3:30 p.m. to 4:15 p.m., is when we take bridal party and family photos. We handle this efficiently, understanding the importance of these group shots while ensuring everyone can return to celebrating as soon as possible. These group shots might seem just a traditional thing to do, but for many, they are the backbone of any wedding album. Taking these photos efficiently and professionally is our top priority, ensuring every one of your guests can return to the festivities as soon as possible and be ready for your ceremony.
&nbsp;
The fourth section, starting at 4:15 p.m., is about setting the scene. Our attention to detail is essential as we capture the environment you've so lovingly crafted. A well-prepared venue enhances the atmosphere of the wedding and allows us to create visually stunning photos. We honor your vision by photographically preserving every detail, from the subtlest decoration to the grandest arrangement. You have spent many arduous hours selecting the colors, textures, and ornaments to adorn your ceremony and reception. We want to honor all the planning you have done by photographing the set of the scene in the beautiful light that helps you remember the elements of your day.
&nbsp;
Section five, from 5:00 p.m. to 6:15 p.m., is the heart of the wedding: the ceremony and the transition to the cocktail hour. We position ourselves to capture both the grandeur of the ceremony and the intimate, joyous moments during the cocktail hour. These moments are full of joy and celebration, from exchanging vows to the first sip of champagne. These moments of your smiles and those of your close family and friends capture heightened emotions. In the dynamic backdrop of Boston, these moments become even more special.
&nbsp;
We will position ourselves to capture these smiles and tears as they blossom from you and your guests. Many notable gasps and whispers arise as you make your way down the aisle and commence to hear the words prepared by your officiant and your vows of promise to one another. You are fulfilling the dream of you two joining your hearts and lives in this ceremony before your loved ones.
&nbsp;
As the sun sets around 6:15 p.m., we enter the golden hour for a few more couples&rsquo; photos. This time is precious, and we make the most of Boston's scenic beauty to create photos that feel like they're straight out of a fable book. A setting sun's warm and soft light creates beautiful, romantic images. Here, we plan not to keep you from your guests for too long, and capturing these photos will pay dividends when you receive these beautifully illuminated portraits of you two in your wonderful wedding day attire.
&nbsp;
Finally, from 6:30 p.m. to 10:00 p.m., we will capture your reception festivities. Our unobtrusive style means we'll be right in the heart of the action without being a distraction, ensuring we capture the true essence of your celebration. These moments are full of energy and joy, from the first dance to cutting the cake. This section will include a lot of laughter and occasional dance moves. You and your guests will be in the midst of the celebration, and we want to remain close to the action to help you relive the vibrancy of your day. There are undoubtedly many family traditions and speeches or toasts to capture; we want to make sure to know the sequence of events so that we follow you and your guests through the night as each scene takes place.
&nbsp;
In conclusion, crafting the ideal wedding timeline is about balancing the traditional with the unique, the formal with the candid. As your Boston wedding photographer, we are committed to capturing the special moments that tell your unique story. It's about capturing the special moments that you will treasure eternally. We want to become a supporting resource to you, and we invite you to reach out if you need personalized help determining your photography needs. We&rsquo;d love to hear about your wedding timeline goals. Let's make your Boston wedding a day to remember!

Love and Nature: A Tale from The Arnold Arboretum

Introduction:&nbsp;In a dance of eternal love and cosmic wonder, seize the rare opportunity to blend the art of portrait photography with the spectacle of a solar eclipse. We will discuss key principles to craft unforgettable solar eclipse engagement and wedding portraits that immortalize your love story in this cosmic event. I would like these points to act as an introductory guide for photographers and couples research into the matter so I will keep the article away from getting too technical, but of course you are welcome to follow the rabbit's hole.‍1. Prioritize Safety in Solar Eclipse Engagement Photography:&nbsp;When capturing the celestial marvel of a solar eclipse during your engagement or wedding session, safety must always come first. Protect your eyes and camera gear using certified solar viewing glasses and filters.The October 14, 2023 eclipse will be annular and a filter will be needed for the entire duration of the eclipse for protection.The April 8, 2024 will be a total eclipse and if you are in the right place there will be a period of time from seconds to minutes where it will be visible to the naked eye and no camera filter will be needed during what is called the period of totality. ‍2. Timing Your Solar Eclipse Engagement Session:&nbsp;Planning is vital to give your self the best opportunity of eclipse alignment. Research the solar eclipse date, time, and path to ensure your love story intertwines with this celestial phenomenon.Here is a link to a website using google maps and an overlay of the eclipse path.&nbsp;<a href="http://xjubier.free.fr/en/site_pages/SolarEclipsesGoogleMaps.html">Interactive Eclipse Path Maps</a>3. Weather prospect research:&nbsp;One of the toughest lessons learned when chasing and capturing these celestial events is that the weather is not always in your favor. I want to be realistic about the fact that rapid weather changes make it difficult to anticipate with certainty if the solar eclipse is visible from your chosen location. Some resources can help you narrow down a location that will give you better weather prospects. Here are some links to helpful website tools that aid in your decision.&nbsp;<a href="http://xjubier.free.fr/en/site_pages/eclipses.html">Eclipse Path Climate Maps</a><a href="http://weatherspark.com">Weather Spark</a>‍4. Essential Gear for Eclipse Engagement Photography:&nbsp;Elevate your artistry by gathering the right tools for this unique shoot. Prepare a manual-capable camera, a sturdy tripod, and a lens that captures your desired vision&nbsp;For landscape images that show the eclipsed sun while incorporating the landscape – ideally within the 16-24mm range.&nbsp;You will need a 70-200mm focal range length for portraits that narrow down on your subject.For dramatic portraits that isolate the solar disk and your subject, you must be in the 400-1200mm lens range. The solar disk can be isolated with telescopic lenses or by adding a focal range extension like a teleconverter or a 1.5 or 2.5 times magnifier. <a href="https://www.adorama.com/l/Photography/Lens-Accessories/Teleconverters">Adorama Teleconverters</a><a href="https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/buy/Teleconverters/ci/278/N/4077634487">B&amp;H Teleconverters</a>Remember solar viewing glasses and lens filters to capture the celestial splendor safely.Here are some links to certified solar photography filters<a href="https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/buy/solar-photography-filters/ci/34576/N/3534534125">B&amp;H Solar Filters</a><a href="https://thousandoaksoptical.com/shop/">Thousand Oaks Filters and Films</a>5. Scouting the Perfect Solar Eclipse Engagement Location:&nbsp;Choose a location to enhance your love story under the celestial spectacle. Scout the area to envision how light and shadow will grace your portraits during this rare event. Suppose the time of the max eclipse will occur near the horizon, for example, at sunrise or sunset. In that case, you need to make sure you have a clear view towards the horizon and something in the landscape that acts as a platform for you to stand on and coincide with the sun's position.If the max eclipse happens during mid-day, several ways exist to accommodate that condition. One of them is choosing a location with a mountainous landscape, as that will help achieve the difference in the position of your camera, and the subject must align with the sun. Alternatively, a tall building or tower could provide the right height, but remember that you will need a greater distance to photograph your subject in the solar disk at longer focal ranges.&nbsp;Here is an article that helps with the technical aspects of focal lengths and distances to incorporate subjects inside the lunar disk that apply to solar eclipses.&nbsp;<a href="https://www.photopills.com/articles/how-plan-next-full-moon">Photopills planning lunar photography</a>‍6. Perfecting Camera Settings for Solar Eclipse Engagement Portraits:&nbsp;On the day of your celestial encounter, allocate ample time for setup and experimentation. Embrace manual mode and fine-tune these settings: <ul id=""><li id="">ISO: Opt for low settings (around 100-200) for clarity, although depending on your camera capabilities, you may need to bump into 800-1600 ISO ranges.</li><li id="">Aperture: Widening it (f/2.8 to f/5.6) will create a dreamy background, but if your aim is for the sharpest solar disk possible, then f5.6 to f9.0 may be a better option.</li><li id="">Shutter Speed: Adjust as the eclipse unfolds, capturing sharpness amid changing light.</li></ul>During the partial phases of the eclipse, keeping the solar filter on your lens will be necessary. The filter will obscure all of the landscape, leaving only the solar disk visible, and your subject will need to be inside the center of the disk to capture a silhouette.&nbsp;During a total solar eclipse, the filters can come off. With the proper settings, you will achieve images incorporating the eclipsed sun, your subject, and the landscape, depending on your framing.&nbsp;7. Composing Your Cosmic Love Story:&nbsp;Integrate the essence of your love story with the eclipse's enchantment. Experiment with angles that unite your subjects' intimacy with the eclipse.8. Posing with Cosmic Grace:&nbsp;Guide your subjects through poses that narrate a unique love story. Encourage interactions with the eclipse, symbolizing the timeless nature of the couples bond.9. Chronicles of Eclipse Phases:&nbsp;Capture every phase of the solar eclipse – the anticipation, the path to totality, the captivating moments of darkness, and the reemergence of the sun. Adjust settings as needed to chronicle the different phases of the event as light changes rather quickly in the principal stages.10. Enhancing Your Solar Eclipse Engagement Portraits:&nbsp;Immerse yourself in the visual narrative after the session. If everything goes accordingly you will achieve some captivating moments that can be enhance through post-processing. Refine exposure, contrast, and colors to mirror the love and cosmic grandeur.11. Sharing Your Celestial Tale:&nbsp;Your artistic endeavor deserves a global audience. Present your cosmic masterpiece to your loved ones, friends, and the photography community. These portraits, conceived at the intersection of love and celestial splendor, are destined to captivate all who behold them.Conclusion:&nbsp;Engaging in solar eclipse engagement or wedding photography is an awe-inspiring dance – a fusion of eternal love and fleeting cosmic beauty. By following some of these principles and nurturing your creative vision, you'll produce artworks that mirror the profound beauty of love amidst the grandeur of the universe. Embark on this celestial journey, and watch your artistry ascend to the stars.

This review has been long overdue but it’s been in the back of my mind to review the masterminds behind Louvenir, Jose & Jess. We got to know them pretty well since they joined us at first for our engagement in Colorado & then our wedding day in Austin, Tx. My husband is a huge introvert but he felt at ease in front of the camera & we got really beautiful pictures that captured the moment. We were lucky enough to have them be part of our wedding team as our photographers. I would definitely recommend Louvenir to any of the lovebirds out there. They feel like long time friends after minutes of meeting them! Thank you so much Jose & Jess!

We are so so lucky to have been able to book with Louvenir! After cancelling our original wedding plans due to COVID, we decided to plan a last minute intimate wedding ceremony and contacted Jose only 2 weeks in advance. Luckily, they were available and were happy to help us! Jose and Jessica are amazing and talented people. They took the time to get to know us before the big day and even went to visit our venue to get an idea of the best picture opportunities! They wanted to know what we were comfortable with and what styles and poses we wanted to capture. My husband and I loved how our wedding pictures turned out! The posed pictures were amazing but we especially loved all the candids that really captured how magical our day was!

Jose was willing to travel and really make an effort to make our wedding day special. He definitely delivered on our vision for capturing the beautiful moments that matter to us. He took advantage of the environment very well and familiarized himself personally to us and that’s something amazing not only are they caring but extremely professional. Would recommend profusely!

Let me start off by saying Jessica and Jose are the most sweetest and caring people ever. It was such a pleasure working with the both of them. They both are so welcoming and encouraging to any ideas you might have for photos. My wedding photos came out better than I could’ve ever hoped for. I recommended this dynamic duo to anyone looking to capture any special occasion. I will have these beautiful photos to pass down one day to my children and grandchildren. I hope to work with you guys again in the future! Thank you again for capturing my special day ❤

When we&rsquo;re not busy capturing weddings or engagement sessions, we love to travel and explore all the natural beauty the world has to offer. It&rsquo;s not unheard of for us to find ourselves lost in nature, only to discover some of the most spectacular sights we have ever encountered &ndash; life can be as beautiful as it is unpredictable. We have brought all the lessons we learned from landscape photography into our approach to weddings and portraits. There&rsquo;s beauty everywhere, sometimes you expect it and sometimes it surprises you, but no matter what your day brings we will be there to capture it. We can never stop time, as much as we may want to, but we can take a&nbsp;Louvenir.
