First Look Wedding Photography
There is a lot of discussion these days around what is the “first look”.
For many couples its a staged moment where the couple see each other for the first time, all dressed and ready for the ceremony and decide on a first look wedding photo.
This can make a beautiful moment where you see each other or just touch hands from around a door.
It can be the moment your partner walks into the church or around the corner into the line of sight of the awaiting other half.
We love first look wedding photos!
There is usually a tear in their eyes or at the very least a HUGE smile. I have even had partner have to look away to stem the emotion of that moment.
Its a beautiful shot to capture one partner looking adoringly at the soon to be, just moments before they are to become, married.

What is a first look wedding moment?
A first look is a special moment when a couple sees each other, fully dressed in their wedding attire, before the ceremony. Traditionally, couples would wait to see each other until the bride walked down the aisle. While that moment remains incredibly powerful, the modern first look offers a different kind of magic – a private, uninterrupted exchange of emotions. It’s an opportunity to connect, share a few quiet words, and truly soak in the excitement and anticipation of the day, all while our professional photographers capture every genuine reaction.
Many couples choose a first look to create a more relaxed start to their wedding day. It’s a chance to calm nerves, share a private moment of joy, and get some breathtaking photos without the pressure of guests watching. From the initial anticipation to the heartfelt embrace, our team at Dreams Photography ensures these moments are documented beautifully, reflecting your unique love story.
Why consider a first look on your wedding day?
Choosing to have a first look on your wedding day comes with a host of benefits that many couples find invaluable. As expert wedding photographers serving Sydney, Wollongong, and Newcastle, we’ve witnessed firsthand how this moment can enhance the entire wedding experience.
