So many couples struggle with the idea of doing the first look. I think for some they feel they sacrifice that romantic moment of seeing each other when the bride walks down the aisle for the convince of getting portrait photos out of the way. However, I will say this in favor of the first look, the first look gives the bride and groom the opportunity to have a special private moment with each other before the whirlwind of the wedding day. For many of my brides nerves seem to disappear after having an opportunity to see their groom before the ceremony.
