In this episode of The Wedding Frame: Stories Behind the Lens, Adina Stiles dives into some of the biggest misconceptions about wedding photography and shares expert insights to help couples make informed decisions.

Adina breaks down common myths, including whether engagement sessions are necessary (spoiler: they are!), why unplugged ceremonies can make a big difference, and how lighting—especially golden hour—affects your photos. She also talks about the realities of Pinterest-perfect images, the importance of choosing a photographer you trust, and how a great wedding photographer does so much more than just take pictures.

If you’re planning a wedding and want to feel more confident about your photography choices, this episode is packed with must-know tips and behind-the-scenes wisdom!

Key Takeaways: Engagement sessions help couples feel comfortable and ensure a smoother wedding day. Unplugged ceremonies allow guests to be present and prevent phones from blocking professional shots. Golden hour lighting is ideal, while harsh midday sun can be tricky for portraits. Pinterest is great for inspiration, but your photos should be authentic to your day. A great photographer is more than just a vendor—they help with timing, posing, and creating a stress-free experience.

Tune in for expert advice and real talk on capturing your wedding day beautifully!
