Tips To Speed Up Your Wedding Workflow

Wedding photographers often take a month or more to produce photographs to their clients, and this can occasionally be a bit longer, making your client unhappy with your services. So, what's the problem with doing tasks in less time?

Many photographers have their process established on their timetable and with their clients, making it easier for them to be responsible and competent in their job. What's the trick? The fact is that you don't have a single surprise in store for us. You may just go through my editing pile like everyone else, but there are several things you should do differently than other photographers to make your process more effective.

So, here's an essay that takes you through the entire culling, editing, and delivery process, explaining why you should execute each step in a certain order. This workflow, on the other hand, has been adjusted for numerous photographers throughout the years and is ideal for how they operate at weddings. Many folks have diverse shooting styles.

As a result, the solution was to divide the post into several recommendations that may help you save time in your workflow. You can agree or disagree with any of them and make modifications to your process as you see appropriate.

1. Shoot thoughtfully

The first piece of advice has nothing to do with editing, computers, or expensive software. We may simply presume that we'll correct problems after the fact. We can do it most of the time. But does that imply that we should? When we have hundreds of images to edit, even minor alterations might add up.

Cropping 200 photos might take about 10 seconds each photo. That is 2,000 seconds, or somewhat more than half an hour.

Overshooting is also a possibility. Culling twice as many images requires twice as much time. Change the burst mode from 12 to 5 frames per second. You can't fathom wanting anything more.
