1. It calms the nerves + you can truly be vulnerable without family + friends watching 
2. The feelings don’t go away when the bride walks down the isle
3. More opportunities for emotional 1 on 1 photographs 
4. Being present at your wedding + this can be a moment where you slow down &take in everything that is about to happen with the person you love 
5. The letters can be more personable + you will most likely say things to your person that you might not want everyone at the wedding to hear

A “first look” is a great way to commit some extra time together + create additional opportunities for beautiful imagery but it won’t make or break your big day <3  As you can see for Austin + Kenzie it was truly a moment neither of them with forget <3
