Bachelorette Party Pictures - Tips - Page 2
The Bachelorette Party Room
or Venue
Since most of your pictures will be shot at night,
it’s important to remember a few basic bachelorette
party rules. When taking pictures of bachelorette
party decorations, be sure to hold the camera very
steady or use a tripod to avoid any movement. Take
them prior to the last night out festivities so you
are not too buzzed.
-
For most pictures that are indoors or at evening
bachelorette parties, you will want to turn on
the flash on your camera.
-
For bachelorette parties during the day that are
outside, you will want to turn off the flash as
they only light things up a short distance from
the camera, usually five to ten feet.
-
Use a high speed film such as ASA 400 or if
using a digital camera, set the ISO to 200 or
400.
-
Try to experiment before the bachelorette party
to figure out the best setting for your
particular camera.
Co-Ed Bachelorette Parties
If you are having co-ed bachelorette and bachelor
parties, make sure to still get pictures of the
girls all together without the guys and then some
group shots. Also take some of the bride-to-be
partying with her divas as well as the groom and his
buddies. Get a mixture so it does feel like two
parties as well as one large last night out.
Bachelorette Parties by a
Pool or Water
If you are having the bachelorette party somewhere
tropical or by a body of water (pool), make sure to
be careful in the following:
-
Make sure the bachelorette party camera is not
too close to the water unless it is water proof.
-
Make sure someone is responsible for the camera
as many bachelorette party photos never make it
since the camera is lost or stolen.
-
Take some great group photos of all the
bachelorettes in the water.
-
Don’t take bachelorettes in their bathing suits
if they are sensitive to their body or do not
like to be in photos. This is why group shots in
water work so these bachelorettes can have their
bodies submerged.
-
Don’t take any revealing photos that will
embarrass someone or may be seen by the
groom-to-be and his friends.
 Bachelorette
Photo Opportunities
Place disposable
bachelorette party cameras, along with a note
inviting any and everyone to take photos. At the end
of the bachelorette party, have a responsible
bridesmaid collect all the used cameras. Have a maid
of honor or bridesmaid develop the film and put the
photos together in an album for the bride-to-be. It
is fun to see the last night out from so many
different perspectives and it captures many moments
that would have been missed had you only appointed
one bachelorette to take photos!
Scrapbook of Bachelorette
Parties
Place together a scrapbook containing photos of the
bachelorette party. Have everyone from the last
night out write on
bachelorette party napkins some marriage advice.
Have a creative maid of honor or bridesmaid take the
bachelorette party last night out pictures as well
as the napkins with advice and arrange them in a
photo album as a gift for the bride-to-be.
Bachelorette Picture Frame and Camera Gift
A great wedding gift idea for a young couple just
starting out with a small budget and don't have
these things on their shopping list as necessities
is to purchase a nice digital camera for the couple
and use it at the bachelorette and bachelor party.
Have everyone chip in for this gift that you can get
for a reasonable amount at a Wal-Mart, Costco, or
Target. This is a great bachelorette party gift that
you can use to take pictures from at the
bachelorette party and then present the camera to
the bride-to-be at the end of the party or bridal
shower! You can also set up an online photo site for
her to download all the pictures like snapfish.com.
Develop the Pictures ASAP
One of the saddest things are bachelorette party
pictures that stay on a camera and are never
downloaded or developed, possibly even being erased.
Have a responsible bachelorette or maid of honor
take care of getting the pictures downloaded or
developed within 2 days of the bachelorette party so
the bride-to-be can enjoy her memories and know she
has history of the party to share years later.
