How to take your own wedding photos

For newcomers who pursue uniqueness and love photography, it is perfect to get rid of the rules of photography companies and take a group of wedding photos for themselves. So, can I take my own wedding photos? Of course. If you have excellent photography skills and post-production ability, why not shoot it yourself? You should get these ready before you shoot them yourself.

1, SLR camera

The key to taking wedding photos is equipment. Although the camera function of mobile phones is becoming more and more powerful, shooting with SLR is the demand of more people. Because the pixels shot by SLR are high, the desired effect can be shot by directly adjusting the aperture and other values. More importantly, the photos taken by SLR are more conducive to post-production. Here you can recommend a700+50/ 1.4, which is specially used for taking wedding photos.

2. Lighting assistance

No matter whether the weather is good or bad, you need a lighting aid when shooting, so that the photos can achieve better results. Outside, Bian Xiao suggested that new people buy a reflector. If it is troublesome, you can use a white foam board. If it is inconvenient to take, you can also buy a large folding reflector. Newcomers who want to shoot stably can also prepare a tripod.

Step 3 arrange the shooting location

Whether you choose location shooting or indoor shooting, you must determine the location in advance. If you want to shoot on location, you should consider the objective conditions such as the weather, make the scenery well in advance, be creative in taking pictures, and prepare the props needed for shooting.

Step 4 get dressed

What you need first is a beautiful veil. Don't underestimate the role of wedding dress in wedding photos. No matter what style of wedding photos, a good veil is made of superior materials and light, so that expressions and movements can be shot through the veil. Besides, don't be superstitious about how beautiful those big wedding dresses are. A simple and comfortable floor-to-ceiling white dress will make you move freely, and the flexibility of your movements will be higher.

5. Late ps

Exquisite photos are always polished in the later stage, and all the flaws in the photos are eliminated one by one to get the final finished product. Newcomers with poor ps skills can also do post-polishing after self-study on the website, or directly find friends with good ps skills to deal with it. Those who are not proficient in this aspect can also find their own advertising companies for post-processing. What needs to be noted here is that if you give it to others, you should communicate your original ideas with each other to avoid the finished product being contrary to your expectations.

In addition to the above five points, there are also related preparations such as makeup and renting props, which need to be planned in advance. Finally, you must do your homework when taking your own wedding photos. If it is really troublesome, it is also possible to find a flat cover with obvious creative style for wedding photography.
