Normally when someone makes a request like this they kick it off by putting up a few of their own.

I find Europe-weddings are generally less interested in prep shots, but here's two I like from my last wedding:

By no means my best getting ready shot in terms of drama, but here is one I grabbed while the dudes were getting ready in a hotel room. Here, the best man works on the speech. Somehow this guy managed to write the whole speech in like 5 minutes.

Just a couple I thought i'd share. We usually just take a step back and let things happen, so most of the getting ready photos we capture are unposed.
