WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY

If there’s one medium of photography that’s guaranteed to test your mettle, it would have to be wedding photography. There are few other genres that require you to wear so many hats: portrait photographer, product photographer, and even studio photographer. If you’re serious about getting into wedding photography then you’ll need to at least dip your toes into each of these areas. But that’s what I believe makes wedding photogaphy so interesting – it forces you to think on your feet and truly puts your creativity to the test. If you can stick with it, it could be one of the most rewarding moves you’ll ever make – both mentally and financially.

Are you new to the world of wedding photography and don’t know where to begin? Or perhaps you’ve dabbled with weddings before and are keen to sharpen your skills? Well, in either case, you’re in the right place. Over the next few pages we’ll be delving head-first into the world of wedding photography, sharing some essential tips and tricks that will help you to refine your focus and increase your chances of bagging some fantastic photos. We’ll cover everything from shooting the integral parts of the wedding day to creative flash lighting effects, and finish off with a tutorial on creating a contemporary colour-graded look, to really give your images that professional edge.
