What are the practical skills of wedding photography?

1, shoot street scenes or borrow people to create momentum.

The difficulty of street view photography is that people or things on the street can't be controlled artificially, so you can shoot with telephoto lens. You can shoot from a height, which can effectively avoid the clutter of the background. In order to create a wedding-like documentary feeling, we can make use of the surrounding environment, such as signboards, buildings and related people around us to create a relaxed and romantic scene atmosphere. In addition, when shooting this series of works, we should communicate with the subject in advance, design some expressions such as pace, posture and expression in advance, and then complete the creation of the works through snapshots. 、

Step 2 make eye contact

Photographers who have just come into contact with wedding photography have a shortcoming, that is, they lack the awareness of always paying attention to the couple's actions, so that they miss some important moments. This may lead you to take a good set of photos, but if you look closely, you will find that the couples in the photos lack basic eye contact, but all look at the camera under your command.

You know, when the other party asks you to be a photographer for their wedding, you don't just want to put on an expression and wait for you to take a picture, but you want to record those warm and touching moments at their wedding, so you need to be ready to capture as many sweet moments as possible at all times, especially when the bride and groom look at each other affectionately.
