The Βig day is finally here, Your Traditional Wedding day.  You have been waiting in expectation for a while now and you are so excited it’s finally here.  All the moments you have envisioned, the Dance, the mood, the laughter and so on, you promised yourself you would display in its full extent. We are finally here today, and oops, the moment you just remembered you are camera shy, or you only know 1-2 poses.  Especially if you planned your wedding yourself, which I strongly advise against. Get a Wedding Planner Honey, the stress that comes with it, could make you forget totally any pose you have had in mind to strike, and take away any excitement and plans you might have made to enjoy your day. Any ways your Photographer might pose you, but you know how African weddings are, everyone expects to see some display of SHAKARA poses and Vibe between you and your Partner regardless of weather the professional photographer poses you both or not, It’s like a sequence of “Change your style, another one –  another one – be like that, “ if you remember that rhyme in African High school in many cases, time is so limited for them, so they will rely on some little swag you have got to get some amazing shots.

Strike a Pose #1

Wife Material, the Whole Yards: this pose is a must strike for a bride alone portrait on your traditional wedding day in Cotonou. It Projects this Character of a Queen always looks, “No one as astonishing as me in the room today look”, “It’s my day and I am about to enjoy it to the fullest kind of vibe”. The list goes on.  This look can be done looking through a mirror, facing backward with face turned to the camera, sitting position, walking, etc. it’s the one type of pose a bride cannot afford to miss on her traditional wedding day.

Strike a Pose #2

Baby I Gat you Always: this together pose with both couples staring at each other uncontrollably, is a most romantic sight to behold, and a pose to not miss for your traditional wedding day in Cotonou. The Bride can hold the groom on his chin,  or vice versa and give that look when you are about to eat a snack. Or a proud accomplished look of “I am glad we are doing this today”. The groom’s hand should be around the Bride’s waist in spite of whose hand is on the chin or shoulder of the other.

Strike a Pose #3

Her King Always: this pose entails the Bride being behind the groom, with her hands stretched out over on top of his shoulder and smiling beautifully, while the groom stands in front of her with hands crossed giving a bold, heroic look of : “I’m Capable”.

I cannot stress how important it is, to have lovely conversations with each other on the wedding day.  Have a Moment together, not talking about how much the deco cost or the shoes you are wearing, nothing provoking sadness or argument but sweet conversation about how beautiful and handsome you both look and how much of a beautiful life you both are looking forward to.  This alone provokes romantic beautiful expressions that are ideal for a Mind blowing Traditional wedding Picture.

Strike a Pose #5

Warm Embrace: this pose entails a kiss adorning from groom to bride. This kiss can be on the forehead, neck, back of palm, top of shoulder, and back, while the groom’s hands remain on the bride’s waist.

Strike a Pose #6

Her Stage: remember the “Her King Always Pose” this is the opposite of it.  It entails the bride being in front of Groom while he garnishes her with adornment from his eyes and expression.
