GROOM:
Bring a lint roller or handkerchief to keep your outfit crisp.
Shoes must be clean especially for low-angle shots.
Carry your watch, kalgi, or sunglasses for accessory shots.
For solo photos, try power poses fixing your cuff, adjusting your sherwani, or standing confidently.
Smile more than you think you need to it warms up the entire vibe.

STAY CRISP:
Why it matters: High-resolution cameras pick up everything lint, dust, loose threads. These little things can ruin the elegance of your sherwani or suit in close up shots.
Pro tip: Assign a groomsman to keep a lint roller handy throughout the day. A folded, clean white handkerchief also helps to discreetly blot sweat or oil from the face.

SMILE MORE THAN YOU THINK YOU SHOULD:
Why it matters: Grooms often get caught looking too serious or stiff. A genuine smile breaks tension and makes you look more photogenic and approachable.
Pro tip: Think of an inside joke or look toward a close friend/family member for a natural smile. We can prompt you during the shoot, too.
