Summary of macro wedding photography tips;

1. Use the remote control or cable release to get clear photos, or use the camera's self-timer function.

2. In photometry focusing mode, there is no need for spot measurement as much as possible, because the focus measurement is not accurate when spot measurement is made. The manual focusing function of general consumer-grade DC is weak, but when the subject is small and it is difficult to focus accurately, you can hold a watch and other' larger' objects at the same distance to assist focusing.

3. Use the LCD screen to view the camera, because the macro itself is very close to the subject, and it is not only indecent to use the viewfinder to view the camera, but also difficult to stabilize the camera. Using the LCD screen to view the scene, the photographer can compose the composition calmly and easily see the final shallow depth of field effect.

4. Pay attention to the background. Although macro can generally blur the background well, we should also pay attention to the seams between background objects, sometimes it will destroy the overall effect carelessly.

5. Try the backlight effect properly. In particular, plants with thin and transparent edges, such as flowers and leaves, will show special aesthetic feeling under backlight.

6. Tourist attractions, such as wind-eroded stone carvings and rusty door locks, will show strong texture in macro shooting.
