Not if you don't want to. It is a good idea to include a few though. Every wedding is different, just go with what you feel comfortable with.
i FEEL AwKWARD WHEN BEING PHOTOGRAPHED, HOW CAN I SOLVE THIS?
The more you get photographed, the easier and more natural it becomes! A great way to achieve this is with a pre-wedding shoot. You can have some training, a little bit of modelling! You also come away with some additional great shots! Some of the images on this website are of clients who have been very nervous and found relaxing difficult in front of the camera. The transition following a pre-wedding shoot was amazing, becoming very photogenic clients!
