1. Generational Hands

Generational Hands I love the photos that show generational hands. They can include several sets back from bride to mother to grandmother to even great-grandmother if that is a possibility. But if it isn’t or even if you just prefer it not to be, it can be just mom and daughter. It is beautiful as a choice for mother daughter wedding photos. The bride is dressed beautifully and the mother is in her mother of the bride dress. It is a special moment and a special way to capture it.

The girl in the picture is like 15

My mum's mum passed away, so my mum and I recreated their pose from my mum's wedding picture on the church steps.

Another photo option that is great is a mother and daughter dancing! Sometimes you just have that one song with your mom why not turn it on and just dance!
