Why Your Wedding Gallery Shouldn’t Look Like a Pinterest Board

Why Your Wedding Gallery Shouldn’t Look Like a Pinterest Board

Pinterest is great for inspiration - not for reality.

You’re not recreating someone else’s wedding.

You’re living your own. And your photos should look like it, too.

Here’s why “Pinterest-perfect” galleries are overrated.

Trends date - Memories don’t

In five years, that filter or editing style that’s everywhere now will scream 2025. But a photo of your partner crying as you walk down the aisle? Timeless.

Over-posing kills emotion

You don’t plan to get married to spend the day tilting your head “just so” for a stranger’s camera. Stiff poses = stiff memories.

Your day isn’t an editorial shoot

You’ll have guests, food, music, and possibly a rogue champagne pop to navigate. Your gallery should feel like your day actually felt - messy, joyful, and completely you.

Trendy edits age quickly

The sepia-washed look might be in now, but it won’t hold the same magic when you’re showing your grandkids. True-to-life colour will.

The “imperfect” photos will mean the most

The hair out of place. The wind catching your veil. Your friend’s uncontrollable laugh mid-speech. These are the frames you’ll treasure.

It’s not about perfection, it’s about presence

You don’t need a carbon copy of a viral wedding.

You need a gallery that feels like your love story.

If that’s your vibe, see my portfolio and let’s make it happen.
