Nearly every wedding Katie and I turn up to, we take one look at each other and have a good old chuckle.
Often we’ll both come wearing versions of the same outfit…navy striped tops with red shoes, jeans with jackets…and last wedding we both wore emerald green. It is never planned, but always uncanny.
So the day we both rocked up to a wedding wearing colourful pants, we had a never-ending line of guests complimenting us on our bizarre mirroring abilities! As soon as we had a dinner break, we found ourselves saying things like “These are the BEST PANTS EVER to photograph in! Look at how low I can lunge!!!”
We took shots of each other in our pants, because it is SO HARD to find the perfect uniform for weddings. We always dress up so that we blend in with the guests rather than look like we’re on official business (black pants and suits? it’s a little too CIA for a wedding, don’t you think?) but to find something that feels dressed up – as well as comfortable – for all the various positions we find ourselves in during the course of the day is crazy difficult!
So! Female photographers of the world, these are hands down the best, most comfortable pants you could ever invest in. The most flattering version we found was at WILGA in Kallista, where they hand make each pair out of some truly fabulous prints.
Love Katie + Sarah xo
Brooke - Awesome, I always struggling with finding comfortable yet stylish wedding outfits that I can shoot in. Currently I am looking for cute but comfy/support shoes to wear for 10+ hours. Any suggestions?
Sophie - Going to get me some! The working-wedding outfit is ALWAYS the biggest dilemma and a never-ending search! Black pants and suits are definitely too CIA-look-at-how-pro-I-am. Looking forward to trying out my lunges, thanks girls!
Katie + Sarah - We DO have a great shoe recommendation!!! How about we blog that too?! x
