No more blogging into the void—these ideas are designed to convert.

If you’ve ever stared at a blinking cursor wondering what the heck should I blog about, you’re not alone.

The truth is: blogging for the sake of blogging won’t help you get found—or get booked. But blogging with intention? That’s when everything changes.

Your blog has the power to:

• Build trust with potential clients
• Boost your SEO
• Showcase your value
• Create content that keeps working long after you hit “publish”

So let’s cut the fluff and get into high-converting blog post ideas that actually attract your dream wedding clients.

1. Real Weddings That Speak to the Clients You Want More Of

Instead of blogging every wedding, choose ones that align with your dream clientele.

What to highlight:

• Unique venues (especially local SEO hotspots)
• Emotional moments, thoughtful details, or cultural traditions
• Why you loved photographing this couple (and what made it meaningful)

Bonus SEO Tip: Use keywords in your title like:
“Elegant Fall Wedding at Magnolia Plantation | Charleston Wedding Photographer”

Need help writing these? We break it down in our how to book clients with blogging guide.

2. Planning Tips from a Photographer’s Perspective

You’re not just there to snap pretty pictures—you’re part guide, part timeline wrangler, part calm-in-the-chaos.

Use that wisdom.

Blog topics to try:

• “5 Things Most Couples Forget on Their Wedding Day”
• “What Time Should You Plan Golden Hour Portraits?”
• “How to Choose a Ceremony Time That’s Best for Photos”
• “The Truth About First Looks: What You Need to Know”

This positions you as more than just a photographer—it positions you as a trusted expert.

3. Location + Venue Spotlights

These are SEO gold.

Couples often search venue names in Google + Pinterest. Writing helpful, visually rich posts about popular venues helps you show up right when they’re researching.

Topic ideas:

• “What It’s Like to Get Married at Lowndes Grove”
• “Top 5 Elopement Locations in Charleston”
• “An Insider’s Guide to Magnolia Plantation Weddings”

Pro tip: These also give you content you can link back to in real wedding posts or Pinterest pins. We show you how internal linking helps with that here.

4. Personal Stories That Humanize Your Brand

Dream clients don’t just want a great photographer—they want you. Blogging about your perspective or behind-the-scenes experiences builds connection.

Try topics like:

• “Why I Still Cry Behind the Camera”
• “The Moment I Knew I Wanted to Be a Wedding Photographer”
• “How My Own Wedding Shaped My Photography Style”

These posts build brand loyalty and are often the most shared, saved, and emotionally resonant.

5. FAQs You’re Already Answering in Emails

Your inbox is full of blog inspiration—you just haven’t turned those answers into evergreen content yet.

Great options include:

• “Do I Really Need 8 Hours of Wedding Photography?”
• “How Far in Advance Should I Book a Photographer?”
• “What Happens If It Rains on My Wedding Day?”

Not only do these posts save you time (just link to them in future emails!), they also help you rank for helpful longtail keywords.

6. Seasonal or Trend-Based Content

Google and Pinterest love seasonal content. Think:

• “Spring Wedding Color Palettes We Love in Charleston”
• “Top Engagement Photo Locations for Fall in the Lowcountry”
• “2025 Wedding Trends for Sentimental Couples”

These also give you fun ways to showcase your voice and visual style—and make great newsletter content too.

Final Thoughts: Your Blog Is a Magnet, Not a Megaphone

You don’t need to post for the algorithm. You don’t need to scream louder on Instagram. You just need to say the right thing in the right place—consistently.

That’s what strategic blogging does.
