I’ve been hired to photograph my first wedding.?

Saturday Jun 26, 2010

I’m photographing my first wedding Saturday. I would classify myself as an experienced amateur. I’ll be using a Canon Digital Rebel XT with battery grip (I have two proprietary battery packs), and an external Canon flash. The battery grip allows me to swap out the proprietary packs with AA’s in the event that these are used up.

I have approx. 10 sets of rechargable batteries, a 4 gig and a 1 gig compact flash card. I’ll be bringing chargers with me in order to recharge batteries on the fly if necessary. I’ll also bring my laptop to transfer photos to if I happen to fill up my cards (pretty sure I will). I also bought an extra pack of standard alkalines (20 pack) that can be used to power both the flash and camera if I need to. All batteries will be fully charged on D-Day.

I need the advice of anyone who has done wedding or large event photography. Do I have enough power to get me through an all day affair? Also, I would appreciate any technical tips or general advice from those that have done it. Any tips appreciated.

Thanks!

It can be a pressure as there is no chance to retake the shots. But if you have experience with other shots you can pull this off. First of all go to the churck or at least call it and find out what their policy is on photographs during the service. In some places its a NO NO . Even if you are allowed to shoot during the service you probably cannot use a flash there so bump the ISO ( maybe as high as 400 or 800)up and if you have VR use it. Some people do use programs like Noise Ninja (from PictureCode.com ) to help with this.

Get a list of the pictures you need after the wedding from the bride and groom and family for before during and after the ceremony

1 day prior to the wedding date
Charge all camera/flash batteries and make sure you have more than enough batteries on hand.
Format all memory cards.
Remove dust from camera body imaging sensors.
Clean lens elements.
Pack camera bags/cases with all needed gear.
Review all your information that you have (hopefully written).
Make sure you have accurate directions (if needed),any written information about the details, group shots, etc. packed in your bag.
Get a good nights sleep.

Wedding day, 2-5 hours before the ceremony
Eat something, you may not get a chance later.
Pack all gear into car. Double check to see that batteries and memory cards are there.

Get to the church early and do some scouting. Take some readings and get a rough idea what white balance setting you need.

If you are shooting with a flash for these get the flash off the camera if you can, also you can use diffusers to soften the shadows. Even outdoors flash can be used for fill light so don’t forget it there. Gather everyone togehter that will be in any shot right from the start. While they’re all sitting there, shoot the formal bride and groom portraits first. Next shoot the largest groups of people , and then once you’re done with a group (like the grandparents for example), send them off to the reception. For the large groups remember depth of field and set your aperature to give you the depth you need. If you have problems with people blinking when you’re ready to shoot the shot, have everybody close their eyes, and then on the count of three have them all open their eyes and smile. For full body shots think about camera height Standing, Full-Length Portrait: Position your camera on a good tripod at the bride’s waist height Keep your lens straight don’t aim up towards the bride’s face. 7/8 Shots (from the calf or knee up) – Putyour camera at the bride’s chest level and shoot with your lens straight from there. For head and shoulders shot put your camera at the bride’s eye level or slightly above. Be aware of objects behind the people that can look like its growing out of thier heads. Position the people close in the portraits, if you let them stand where they are comfortable they are usually too far apart.
If you can sneak some shots in here from a higher vantage point that can be interesting additons to the portraits

At the reception take lots of candids of everyone you can but remember THE BRIDE IS THE CENTER OF ATTENTION. Oh did I say that too loud ….. Again have a list of shots they want there. Cutting the cake, first dance, throwing the bouquet etc. At the reception your feet are your best zoom. using long zoom lenses can give you a depth of field that is too shallow, flatten features of the subject, put you out of range of your flash and feel impersonal. So use a lens long enough that you are not intrusive but not so zoomed out that you have these problems

Bring lots and lots of memory cards
Bring extra batteries

Go to your local library now and read some books out there on wedding photography
I hope this helps
