My fiancé wears glasses. I am
worried that the flash photography will reflect off them and
ruin our pictures. What can I do to ensure beautiful pictures?
Wedding photography has advanced by leaps and bounds, so the
reflection should not be a problem. However, it doesn’t
hurt to stack the deck in your favor. Have your fiancé
invest in glasses with antireflective coating, and encourage
your photographer to use natural light whenever possible.
To be safe, have a clause added to your contract stating that
reflection from the flash will be retouched free of charge.
You can also just ask your fiancé to remove his glasses
for some of the pictures. He won’t know what he’s
smiling at, but hopefully the pictures will capture only his
good looks and not his confusion.
One last thought: Keep in mind that your fiancé will
look different without his glasses. You fell in love with
someone who wears glasses and it’s important that your
wedding pictures reflect that. (No pun intended!)
