Instagram Worthy Photo Tips: Bachelorette Addition
The best thing about a bachelorette party? Okay, okay, other than the bride. THE PHOTOS. Duh. I cannot tell you how many of my dating app photos were from bachelorette parties I had been to. Even if you aren’t on dating apps, don’t say no to these amazing tips for Instagram-worthy photos.
Designate a Photographer
There is always one friend who knows how to get ALL the angles. Be sure to figure out who that is before the trip. Bonus points if you have more than one camera-savvy girlie in the ranks. Once you’ve figured out who is the designated flash squad, make sure they are ready to capture candid moments, group shots, and details.
Flash Fact: Consider hiring a professional photographer for a few hours so no one in the group has to worry about missing out on all the fun.
Location, Location, Location
As any seasoned millennial would know, Instagram stalking geo-locations/tags is a great way to check out Instagram-worthy spots. If this spot has gone viral, be sure to look up tips on how to get the most out of your time at the location. If it is busy enough, there might be just a few minutes to get a photo before people are trying to get you to move out of the way.
We Love a Candid Moment
Some of the best bachelorette party photos come from capturing spontaneous, candid moments. Encourage your friends to capture genuine reactions and interactions by taking photos of literally everything! I like to hold down for rapid shots on my iPhone to make things easier!
Fit Check
Plan ahead and coordinate outfits or accessories that make the group stand out! I say skip the matching t-shirt and opt for a color palette. While it might seem cringy, you’ll thank me when your besties look effortlessly matched in all your photos. Don’t forget the props like confetti, balloons, or signs!
Mix & Match
While posed group shots are a staple, don't forget to mix in action shots to capture the energy and personalities at the party. Don’t be afraid to experiment with different angles and presets to add variety to the photos. Bonus points if you can have multiple people take photos of the same moment with different viewpoints!
