What are some tips for wedding photography?

It is recommended to bring a 17-55mm, 50 fixed focus or 85 fixed focus lens to be more practical, and use a large aperture lens to retain the atmosphere of the scene.

Snap a picture. The expressions taken are more natural. This is where the gap between professional and amateur lies.

Most weddings now take place indoors, although there will be lights on the wedding site; However, the lighting at the wedding site is generally not very bright, and sometimes candles are used to create a romantic atmosphere. So when shooting in this environment, it's best to use flash, otherwise you won't be able to shoot. ‍‍

In wedding photography, the requirements for lenses are relatively high, and all focal lengths are involved. Personally, I recommend using a 24-70mm, 50 prime or 85 prime lens. A medium zoom lens is necessary because it can shoot near and far, and it can meet many of your needs.

For medium focus lenses, I usually use a prime head, such as a 50mm prime head. In addition, the ultra-wide-angle lens is also commonly used in wedding photography, because it can capture the entire wedding scene. ‍‍

Portraits shot against the light often achieve unexpected results. The same goes for wedding photography. Often a good ** does not need to be accurate, but best reflects the beauty and atmosphere.

When we encounter the situation that the background and companion in the picture that need to set off the subject also occupy a certain area, which belongs to the white in the picture, we can use the method of positive blank. The position of the figure on one side of the frame, and leaving a large area of blank space in front of the subject, makes the picture appear to highlight the charm of the subject and make the scene in front of the subject echo. When we adjust the posture of the subject, we mostly choose the side, and we should pay attention to the balance between the face area and the body area. ‍‍

The wedding scene is very mixed, and the couple is constantly moving, so it is especially important to be accurate. Because there is no time for you to measure and then focus before composing the shot at a wedding, I basically use evaluative metering, and this requires experience to adjust the situation on the scene** compensation. If you are not very skilled, then I recommend that you go to the wedding site to see the shooting environment and lighting first, and do some preparation in advance.

Personally, I recommend using a manual setting, which is adjusted completely manually as the character and light position changes** based on experience. ‍‍

The beginning of a wedding usually starts at the bride's home. In the morning, the bride should get up early, freshen up, change into a wedding dress, and wait for the groom to get married. This link is very important in wedding photography, and it is also the easiest link.

The bride's makeup process is more suitable for close-ups. This process, in particular, of the thrush, best reflects the beauty of the bride. It should be noted that usually the sky is not yet bright at this time, and the indoor light is often dim, so it is necessary to increase the light sensitivity appropriately to ensure that the picture is clear.

The Canon EOS 5D Mark III's continuous shooting speed of 6 frames per second and high sensitivity make it ideal for wedding photography, even in low-light and low-light conditions. ‍‍

1. First of all, if you shoot the wedding, it is generally best to take a picture of the overall layout of the wedding scene, which is very useful, whether it is a post-production album or the overall beauty, in fact, it is directly related to the overall layout of the wedding scene, we need to take a photo.

4. After that, the wedding scene also needs to be filmed, when the post-production album is made, such an action must be needed, otherwise it will appear that the whole wedding is incomplete.

5. Then, when the newcomers face each other face to face, it is also a good opportunity to shoot when they exchange rings in each other, and they should choose to shoot at close range.

6. Finally, we have to shoot more scenes that are worth recalling, so that the purpose of shooting them is to show the newcomer in the future, and then be able to recall some memories of the once beautiful Gao Qin. This is something we need to pay special attention to during the shoot.
