I got some answers for you!

SCISSORS – Sometimes you need to cut stuff! Scissors are perfect for cutting some greenery to add to your invitation suite!

WOODEN HANGER – Wooden hangers are much classier then metal hangers so always have some on hand. I normally bring a set so I have them if I want to hang the bridesmaids dresses too.

SILK RIBBON – This is great for tying the invitation suite together and creating leading lines in your images.

CLOTH – It is so darn hard to find something to lay the invitation suite on, am I right? A neutral cloth,  or same color palette as your bride’s colors is awesome to have on hand!

CLIFF BARS – You will, I REPEAT, you WILL get hungry. Always keep some extra yum yums in your bag for you or your second shooter. You can’t do your best unless your are fueled!

WATER BOTTLES – Holy moly HYDRATE! Yes, as photographers, we are constantly going. You need this. – No really. This is not in the picture but we don’t buy these unless it’s the wedding day.

My kit is always growing! I would love to hear what you have in your kit! With these items in your Essential Wedding Day Kit you are bound to get gorgeous pictures!!
