Photographers in their work are faced with a huge number of strange superstitions associated with photography. Many of them relate to wedding photographs. The most popular ones are collected here. Often newlyweds or their relatives who believe in omens prevent photographers from doing their job as well as they can. Of course, everyone decides for themselves what signs to believe in. At Svadbodelov.ru, most of this list causes sincere bewilderment.
Modern superstitions arise from personal experience of some kind of coincidence, reformulation of old superstitions, and are borrowed from other cultures - in the era of the Internet this happens easily and quickly. The older people are, the more signs they believe in. In this regard, one of the professional competencies of a wedding photographer is to be able to dispel mystical moods.
The numbering of the photo list should not contain the numbers 13 and 666
How can you argue here, if in the world even buildings are built without the 13th floor?
There are also those who believe: if there is a building in the frame, the newlyweds will turn to stone, if there is a tree in the frame, their legs will give out, and in Ancient Rus', by the way, they generally lived perfectly well without photographs - so, well, keep them away.
Photographers, by the way, also have their own signs, like the following: “everyone I photographed lives happily ever after,” “the lens on this camera is a happy wedding lens,” and a tripod is generally “a guarantee of stability in family relationships.” Misfortunes, according to photographers, fall only on those who did not pay them the advance on time or did not pay at all. Excellent, in our opinion, signs, correct.
Wedding photo shoot: tips for conducting it.
It's no secret that between the ceremony and the wedding banquet, for various reasons, there is a wedding photo shoot. Most brides believe the main myth about weddings, which says that the groom should never see his future wife’s wedding dress. But according to wedding photographers, the wedding photo session before registration is the best time to ensure that the images on the back of the wedding album are perfect. Below, Smotryonka decided to present the arguments in favor of conducting wedding photography before the official part of the wedding day.
The picture in the photo is better
One of the most important arguments is the bride's fresh makeup and not disheveled hairstyle in wedding photographs. The wedding dress is perfectly smoothed and clean, which is also important.
Time
Evening time for marriage registration will allow you to take your time before the celebration begins and conduct a wedding photo shoot. The allotted time is enough to take photos together. At the same time, your guests will not hang around idle or interfere with your photography. However, the time between the wedding ceremony and the banquet can be reserved for a photo shoot with the guests. Also, do not forget about wedding videography, which also requires quite a lot of time for high-quality takes in order to edit and create a decent wedding film.
Spend time with friends
Immediately a few minutes before the ceremony and after, you can devote all this time to friends, discuss some things with relatives, and just pay attention to the people who came to congratulate you on this significant day.
Solitude with your loved one
Before and after the wedding ceremony there are not many chances to be alone. Instead of being distracted by guests and solving organizational issues, immerse yourself in the process of wedding photography entirely and completely, surrender to your feelings for each other in these minutes. Your sincerity, freedom and carefreeness will be reflected in bright colors in your wedding photographs and, believe me, it’s worth it!
The result of the captured images
The result will be much better in terms of the number of options, ideas and styles of wedding photographs. An undeniable fact for all professional photographers is that when the bride and groom are in a relaxed, calm state, the pictures turn out great. Also, an inexpensive photographer (most likely a beginner wedding photographer) will be able to realistically assess the shooting location and organize an unforgettable wedding photo session no worse than expensive professionals.
Let the wedding photo shoot leave behind a priceless memory of the great day!

How many signs exist with photographs?
A fuzzy photo means quick death.
Signs about photographs are most often associated with bad omens.
And all because each card is filled with the energy of the person depicted on it. People believe that you can act on a photo only if it is no older than five years. But this is a mistaken opinion. For a good magician, even a childhood photograph
of a person who has been retired for a long time is suitable. But the image can really tell a lot.
If the photo is clear, then the person depicted in it is in very good health and will live a long life. But if the photo is blurry, it is not possible to clearly see either the eyes or the face, then this really means that the person has health problems, and such that it is very difficult to get rid of them. Just before you draw any conclusions, look at who photographed you. If the photographer was pretty drunk, then it’s not about your health, but about his problem with orientation in space. There are a huge number of signs with photographs
, which cannot be assessed adequately in them.

Should you believe in signs and superstitions about photographs?
The bride and groom in the photo together - to an imminent separation.
This sign is not correct. I know a lot of couples who were photographed together before the wedding, and have been living happily in love and harmony for many years. Therefore, it would be wrong to say that it was photography that caused the break between the lovers. Such a sign did not exist in the old days. Although the pictures themselves appeared not so long ago. People break up when they are unable to understand each other. And it doesn’t matter whether they were photographed together before the wedding or not, the main thing is that there is mutual understanding. Relationships can only be built on love, respect and understanding. So this sign is common.
Why don't wedding salons allow brides to photograph their dresses?
Many brides approach the search, selection and fitting of That Wedding Dress very carefully: they take a “support group” with them to the fitting, whose opinion they trust, be patient and plan to photograph all the wedding dresses they like so that they can evaluate one or another with a “fresh mind” at home. a different model, consult with your family and then really buy the outfit that suits you best.
But many brides complained to The-Wedding.ru that wedding salons do not allow photographs to be taken during fittings, and the editorial staff themselves have faced such an unpleasant situation more than once. We decided to figure out what was the reason for such a strange ban, and took comments directly from representatives of wedding salons.
We asked wedding salons 3 questions:
- Do you allow brides to be photographed in wedding dresses, so that later they can look at the photo of the house and choose a worthy option?
- In what cases do you not allow photography and why?
- If you allow photography, why do you think other wedding salons don't allow it? And what could this be connected with?

We allow our clients to be photographed wearing our dresses during fittings. It often happens that the bride’s close people (parents, other relatives whose opinion is important) cannot attend the fitting; in such a situation, photography is the best way for relatives to “visit” the fitting virtually. It’s also nice for brides to look back at the photos and remember the process of choosing a dress!
Why don't other wedding salons allow photography? Most likely, they are afraid that in an unprofessional photograph the dress will not look as impressive as in the photo in the catalog, which may discourage the bride from purchasing it. Although initially the ban on photography was introduced by atelier salons, then it was forbidden to take photographs so that another atelier would not “steal” the dress model and sew the same one. But now this is no longer relevant, it is possible that old salons simply prohibit photography out of habit, without fully knowing why 
The Wedding Shop (Wedding Dresses)Wedding salon |
In our salon, filming is allowed and there are no prohibitions or restrictions. Personally, we believe that photographs are very important when subsequently choosing a wedding dress, since brides, visiting a large number of salons, can hardly remember all the details of the dresses. We ourselves have always been interested in the question of why photography is prohibited in other salons, and recently we found the answer. Other salons prohibit taking photos because photos taken on a phone do not reflect the dresses favorably later. We partly agree with this, so we always advise brides to focus primarily on their feelings and emotions.
In addition, some bridal salons do not allow photographs to be taken in their fitting rooms, when the fitting turns into a real photo session, unlimited in time, and this interferes not only with the normal work of the salon, but also with the fittings of other brides. Also, the main reason for the ban on leading wedding salons may be the fact that careful photographing of dress details and embroidery still leads to a huge number of fakes and fraud. Well, unscrupulous salons, in turn, are simply afraid that brides will be able to see the shortcomings of wedding dresses in the photo at home and will not buy the outfit they like immediately based on the first impression.
Of course, if you are not happy with this situation, it is best to leave the salon immediately or take a risk and take pictures by turning off the flash and sound on the camera when the consultants go off to look for your next wedding dress!
Dear brides, we advise you to buy only the wedding dress in which you are one hundred percent confident!
