One of the most captured moments at a wedding is when the couple kiss. When they’re epic, they make us think of the one true kiss. You know, the one that vanquishes all others. Over the years we’ve curated tens of thousands of these photos of these sweet kisses and only a fraction have stood out from the crowd in terms of photography. For this collection of Editor’s Picks we’ve chosen 20 photos that highlight the authentic bond and deep emotions shared between two people, taken from the unique perspective of some of our prestigious members.

From the tender peck on the cheek or forehead to the passionate lip-lock, these photos include tender embraces and gentle caresses, each one narrating a story of love and commitment.

In celebration of Valentine’s Day and of February in general—the month of romance—we are excited to share these romantic photographs with you.

The Romantic Kiss

When you get a kiss like this, you know your partner is proud to be with you. There is a grounded feeling about these kisses that make them timeless. 

The Tender Kiss

When you want to show intimacy and loyalty you might give or get a gentle and affectionate kiss like this. Photographers look for these to occur during quiet moments of the wedding day or even after the ceremony, showcasing the couple's intimacy and connection.

The Passionate Kiss

This type of kiss is full of intensity and desire. The couple shares a deep and passionate kiss, sometimes with an embrace or a dip, showcasing their intense connection and chemistry. Who wouldn’t want a shot like this from their wedding?

The Almost Kiss

This moment is all about the anticipation and tension, when lips get close and ready to move in. It’s a moment that is characterized by the palpable energy that crackles between two people and we love the way the last photos in our collection capture that.

A lot more kissing goes on at a wedding than most couples are used to. We suggest you practice before your big day because, after all, you want your photos to look good and it is definitely a plus for your relationship.
