Why We Love A Father-Daughter First Look | Wedding Photographers Alexandria Virginia

You are already familiar with the traditional first look when a bride and groom meet in an intimate, private moment before the ceremony. First looks are so special and romantic, but there’s a new first look trend that we are absolutely loving.

The bond between a father and daughter is incomparable. He loved her first, and she will always be his little girl. And she will always admire him as the man who helped her find her path in life and grow into the amazing woman that she is today. Giving her away and ushering her into a new life with the man of her dreams is no small thing, and it deserves its own moment.

That’s why we love the father-daughter first look. Here are a few reasons to consider it for your wedding:

  1. Private Moment

Just like the grooms, most fathers would love a chance to have a moment before the ceremony with just their daughters – a time when no one else is watching, and they can just enjoy a few minutes together without pressure. He can get sentimental, and it will be lovingly received by his daughter.

  1. A Heartfelt Thanks

A father-daughter first look gives the bride a chance to tell her father how much he means to her and how thankful she for his constant love and support. And he can tell her just how proud he is of all she’s accomplished.

  1. Priceless Expressions

A father has watched his daughter from birth: the toddling stage, the Barbie doll phase, that bad haircut where he promised she looked beautiful as ever, years of cheering her on from the sidelines – he’s been there through it all. And when he sees his little girl all grown up in her wedding gown….Cue the happy tears, and bring out the Kleenex!

  1. Authentic Photos

Rightfully, most of the attention is put on the bride and groom during the wedding day. But there’s still a time and place for those beautiful family moments, and they deserve to be captured candidly, as they are happening in the moment. A first look makes sure that happens, and both father and daughter will have those precious photos for years to come.
