Photography Business Names How to photograph a wedding is one of the most common questions I’m asked. There are many aspects to this question on wedding photography.

There are short answers to this question and longer and detailed answers. In this article I will give you a short and to the point explanation of how to photograph a wedding, mainly what shots you must take.

I have to assume that you already have technical competence with your camera equipment; if not then don’t even consider photographing a wedding!

There are approximately twenty five to thirty shots that you must capture, that said couples are now looking for you to take many many more shots for them to choose from.

Photographing a wedding is twenty percent camera skills and eighty Photography Business Names percent posing and people handling skills.

Make sure you cover at least the following shots: -

Bridesmaids arriving Groom and best man arriving Bride and father arriving A shot of the rings being exchanged Signing the marriage certificate Coming down the aisle Couple standing at front door of church Throwing the confetti Bride and groom leaving in car Multiple shots and varied poses of bride and groom Multiple shots of bride Bride and Groom with his family Bride and groom with her family Bride and groom with both families Bride and groom with best man and flower girls Bride with flower girls Groom and best man Bride and best maid Cutting the cake First dance

The above is the absolute bare minimum of shots to plan for wedding photography, in other words shots that you daren’t miss!

There will be other arrangements of family and friends that you should consider. You will also find it helpful to make a request of the group as to whether anyone would like their photographs taken with the bride and groom, this will cover you for possible complaints later, that you didn’t invite a relation or friend to be photographed.

During the photo session which you should aim to cover in no more Photography Business Names than one hour you will need good organisational skills. I find it helps to leave the shots of the bride and groom to last. This allows you some privacy with them, which in turn will allow you to capture some more intimate shots as they will be more relaxed.

I hope you have found this brief article helpful in respect of what shots to take at a wedding.
