Photographers often hand over all the images they have clicked for your wedding. However, running through the entire lot and selecting only some among the bunch can be quite an overwhelming task.

Scaling back the amount of photographs will only ease the task of image selection for your wedding album.

When assembling photos for creating the perfect wedding album, you can pick up the ones that do not necessarily fit the traditional, classic category, which is found in almost every other album. Sometimes, featuring images of funny and crazy moments of your wedding ceremonies may make you look back at the wedding album forever so fondly.

#6. Pick only the best

Do not cram the album with too many images. It would be a good idea to have only a single or just a couple of images in one page rather than having disjointed, multiple images on a single page. Cramming the wedding album with too many images will make it look messy and the viewer would not be able to notice the details of each picture. Only select the most stunning shots or the ones that have captured a moment perfectly.

If there are many photos that you think you must feature in your wedding album, but they would not fit into the standard number of pages, then it would be best to include a few more pages. Wedding photographers often try to fit too many chosen pictures into certain pages, and end up giving the album a cluttered appearance. However, you can spend a few extra bucks and ask him to add more pages that can feature more pictures. 

#8. Include the classic and key moments
