Before you get on the boat, be sure to pose for some pre-ceremony shots in front of the Victorian-style exterior. The bright white and lemon yellow complement nearly any color scheme, so get bridesmaids or groomsmen in on some of the pictures as well.
Out on the deck, incorporate the intricately laced iron railing, as well as the views of Old Town Alexandria and Washington D.C. for some truly spectacular shots. Lean over the railing with your new spouse and share a private kiss while your photographer captures your intimate moment alongside the gorgeous passing scenery.
Use the sunlight as a tool in your photo shoot arsenal, staging contrasty pictures on deck in bright day light, soft portraits during a rosy dusk, and moody shots under the glimmer of the moon and stars. Even very similar shots taken at different times will result in drastically different images.
The brass and mahogany details inside the riverboat imbue photos with a stylish antique flare. Sepia tones can draw out period elements, while color photos can capture the opulent reds and golds, allowing the bride’s dress to pop against the luxurious backdrop.
