A wedding is not just an event but it is a journey that two people have decided to take. Wedding photography shouldn't be considered to be anything less than serious photography. In reality it is one of the most difficult disciplines of professional photography work. If you are an up-and-coming wedding photographer then there are specific key areas that you need to understand. One of the critical areas is strategy. Even before it is possible to think about the camera to use, the film roll, the lighting and the background, you need to work on a technique.
A sound strategy means that you'd be able to create opportunities by the numbers. You will have to form an opportunity in every situation. Most wedding photographers take two or more versions of the same shot to get rid of blinks and at the same time they may be able to introduce variety. The standard of wedding photography is to shoot a full-length photo, which is followed by a head and shoulders or half-length photograph.
Secondly, you will have to create a list of footage that should be or can be taken during the wedding. The list drawn by most professionals include photos of the Bride at home, preparations/wedding dress, parents bridesmaids, bridesmaids group photograph, bride and bridesmaids, bride and chief bridesmaid, bride and family, parents and bride, mother and bride, father and bride, siblings, sisters and bride's mother and father and bridesmaids, extended family and any special requests.
These will be followed by photos in the church or outdoors after the marriage ceremony is over. One of the favorite shots is where the bride walks down the aisle. You can take good photos using a tripod so that the flash can bounce from a reflector at around 5.6 feet followed by a shutter speed of 1/8 or 1/15 of a second. This will permit background light to seep in. If you are not using the tripod then you will need to have one stop less than the normal where the flash will reflect on an 80mm lens and the shutter speed will be 1/30 of a second.
Take some of the tips above on board and become a professional photographer.
