What are you busy with wedding photos? It turns out that "wedding photography" has to do so many things ~

There are photographers all over the street, but it seems that the general public still has a little knowledge of the photographer's work, and there are often problems that make photographers turn their eyes to the back of their heads. This article will tell you about our work with photographers in the "wedding photos" section.

Before operation

Usually, we will keep the service date after the newcomer pays the deposit, and then discuss the craft friendship with the newcomer after the newcomer's craft table comes out. On the day of shooting, we will start shooting according to the time and place agreed with the couple. Usually, we don't leave until the end of seeing the guests off. In fact, there are not many photos taken by the bride when she makes up. Mainly because we are not only filming, but also getting to know each other with relatives and friends of the host family, or makeup teachers, or photographers. It will be helpful for us to shoot the next day.

In the past ten years of wedding shooting, we have been familiar with the process of each season and most emergencies. Many couples are preparing for the wedding for the first time, and we can provide a lot of information to help them solve the various situations of the day quickly.

Wedding day shooting process

When you make up, you will film the makeup process, the preparation process at home, the items prepared on the wedding day, and then the ceremony. Then we won't interfere in the ceremony, but only help when everyone is a little arguing or at a loss, because the pictures captured under the most natural conditions will be the best. After all, everyone is not an actor, and it is our job to seize the opportunity.

After the ceremony, the most important thing is to take a family photo, a group photo or a single photo with relatives and friends. Then the interval between this trip and the next trip is usually short, so we will take important photos first, and then take scattered photos. At this point, the whole process usually ends in the morning.

The next step is to rush to the banquet site to arrange lights and equipment. When shooting a banquet, the lighting will be set according to the scene lighting and environment. However, in some banquet environments that are too crowded or have too many strange colors, it is impossible to make any changes after coordination with the restaurant. At this time, it really depends on our years of experience to adjust the settings. After all, if you hit your face, seeing beautiful light on the spot may not be so beautiful.

During the dinner, we will film the activities on the stage, the expressions and interactions of the guests under the stage, propose a toast and the wedding dress type of each dress (sometimes, there is usually not much time for the second set), and finally go to see the guests off. Seeing off guests is usually done by SOP. After all, there are too many people taking pictures, and we often shout "burning sound" in the chaotic environment at the scene.

At this time, in addition to taking photos of the couple and guests, guests often ask us to take photos of them with our mobile phones, but there are still hundreds of people waiting in line to take photos, talk to the couple, leave the scene or get wedding gift boxes. And we have to control the scene, take pictures, or think. This time is usually only 30 minutes at most, but hundreds or thousands of people have to leave the scene. Moreover, when seeing off guests, we usually set up two light sources, which are often kicked around to attract our attention to the position of the lights. After almost all the guests leave, we will finally take two single photos and similar wedding dresses for the couple as the finishing touch. If we have time to shoot them first, or if the newcomers are too tired or in a hurry to leave, then we will start collecting equipment and finish today's work.
