Necessary knowledge of wedding photography

Lead: I have been rolling in the wedding dress industry for many years, and many people see many guests stepping on mines by mistake without knowing it. This article is mainly written from the long-term desire to be a photographer. If you are getting married, please read it patiently.

When you are in contact with the salesgirl, your domineering attitude can help you get more gifts or groups, but the salesgirl will tell the photographer about you and your photos will be discounted.

Why do you want a discount? In the face of petty, greedy and cheap guests with many conditions, the photographer's enthusiasm for your service will be halved first. Even if he wants to take a good photo for you, the psychological negative effect has already happened. Taking pictures is very emotional. When the photographer has no feelings for you, your photos are just so-so. Because it is "people" who take pictures of you, not machines.

It is dangerous to think that two months before marriage is enough time to take a wedding dress.

Many people think that taking a wedding dress means taking a photo and then making an album, which won't take that long. But let me tell you the truth, okay?

It takes at least one month to one and a half months from taking photos to taking photo albums. The question is, what if it doesn't go well?

The weather was terrible that day. Do you want to bite the bullet or make it up another day? The answer is self-evident However, wedding companies can't maintain their huge expenses just by serving your guests. Each extension will take at least 15 to 40 days. Why does it take so long? If a wedding company can let you shoot again at any time, then you should worry. Is there something wrong with the customers and service quality of this store, so that its photographers can be so idle?

After taking photos, you have to choose the time to choose photos. In principle, you can choose pornography (unrefined photos) within 3 to 7 days after taking photos, but if you can't match the time (such as personal affairs, work? You must wait until the wedding company can cooperate with you, provided that there is also a schedule for the wedding company, not to mention that you have to choose and order wedding dresses and bridesmaid dresses, and you are busy dealing with personal wedding necessities that are not within the service scope of the wedding company, which will only force you to death?

"In principle, it is safest to take wedding photos at least half a year ago. At least you will have at least two delays in bad weather. 」

To communicate with photographers, please do your homework first and find a photo style that suits you.

Many people think that if I pay money to the wedding company, the wedding company will take good photos for me. This irresponsible attitude is actually like throwing a child to school and then asking the teacher to educate him to be a good student with excellent academic performance.

The photographer can only help you finish 50%, and the other half needs to be done by yourself. If you don't want to throw everything to the photographer, you can only take ordinary photos. What background, tone, action and expression do you want? Those must communicate with the photographer carefully. The photographer will help you make appropriate suggestions according to your needs.

A common problem is that guests ask photographers to provide scenic spots, and then shoot them or question the opinions given by photographers. When they asked the guests what they wanted, they said, "I don't know. Do you have any good photographers to recommend?" It's like you go to a restaurant and don't know what you want to eat. When the chef gives you advice, you should say "I think it tastes terrible", or when you go to a department store to buy something, the sales consultant holds it as if you were shooting a gun, but there is no direction or goal. Being as strong as a Buddha, it's hard not to be angry ... Minasan who worked in the service industry! ! ! ~ You know ...

Many people will take samples of celebrities and madou to communicate.

The cruel truth is. You think it looks good just because it's madou in the picture. It's not the essence of the photo, the posture or expression you think is natural, the things repeatedly honed by beans, or the natural facial features and figure. For them, it's as simple as eating braised pork rice, but for you ... it may be a hell of a test?

Not to mention that if these photos were changed to amateurs, you might not care at all. This situation most often happens when guests communicate with photos of foreigners, because the proportion of five senses and the degree of openness are different (it is undeniable that foreigners' nationality is more open), and they often learn four things.

Taking pictures is like buying clothes. Please choose the feeling that suits you.

Instead of following other people's advice, for example, telling photographers to be lively and natural when they know that they are not flexible or open-limbed? This is not for the photographer to decide.

If you have a bad expression when taking a picture, the photographer will only let you retake it until you want to kill yourself. Your personal acting and style account for at least 80% of the success or failure of the photo. If not, everyone can be a bean, so don't expect your expression to be stiff. The photographer can take you as Lin Chi-ling.

You can pretend to understand or be a photographer in Doby, but it's not good for you.

Photographers are not camera machines, they are made of human flesh. It is very important to give basic respect and trust to the photographer's profession. If you question or disrespect your photographer, but expect him to take good photos for you with a happy heart, listen to me, you'd better change photographers.

When you ask the photographer: I want to find a friend to take a side shot. Basically, you have been sentenced to death by the photographer. ...

Photography is a major.

Can you imagine how long and hard it takes an assistant to climb to the position of photographer? Field control ability, action guidance, expression introduction, atmosphere creation. How to compose a composition, choose a scene, lead an assistant to light up and make you laugh at the same time?

The wedding dress industry is a very hard industry with long working hours and few holidays. A photographer can break 300 hours of work at will every month. When you finish taking photos after a hard day's work, the photographer must work overtime to make the final computer adjustments to your photos. Busy late at night is common? How many days have you sacrificed with your partner and how much time have you sacrificed with your family for your experience (once a photographer colleague took two days off after his father died and came back to work, and had to take pictures of the guests with a smile), and your "look askance"-coveting temporary convenience and petty advantages-is undoubtedly the most ruthless and severe trampling on a photographer's career in exchange for his time and sweat.

Then you may ask: Why on earth can't you shoot sideways? Even if you think what I just said is nothing, will you take a camera with you when you go to the movies? Do you think the cinema will let you shoot?

This example is easy to understand. This is the commercial copyright of the photographer. Even if you really entered the wedding company and let you take a side shot, the photographer's enthusiasm has long since disappeared, and he will not take you seriously.

Many people think that photographers just want their customers to be more selective and die for money.

Everyone thinks that photographers have easy work and a lot of money, and they can put money into their bags by pressing the shutter. Not at all. The average basic salary of photographers is around 20 thousand, which is completely obtained by multiplying the number of groups you choose by a very low percentage as a performance. In other words, if you don't pick more than half a photo, the photographer will do it for you for free that day. On the other hand, if you were a photographer, would you want your guests to be more selective? If you work in the clothing industry, do you want your guests to buy more clothes?

There is no right or wrong, it is purely a question of the law of supply and demand. If not, why do you think the photographer worked so hard to help you? It is a bit narrow-minded to think that photographers want money. Photographers have to eat like you, pay the rent and pay the car loan. You can't fill your stomach just by pressing the shutter. Is it realistic?

But in fact, the photographer knows very well that not every pair of guests have the ability to choose more. After all, getting married costs a lot of money. If you tell the photographer that I like your photos very much, but I really can't choose more, thank you very much for taking them for me. I'm really sorry. I believe most photographers will still smile and tell you that it's okay. Instead of.

The photos are so ugly that I don't like them. I don't want to pick too many to arm my dignity and ruin my career as a photographer.

These are the secrets of the photographer, and the cyber vigilante will never tell you, and she doesn't know. You can choose to trust the network sour people, even if their consumption experience may not be completely fair and neutral, or look at it from another angle. After all, people get along with others. You can be an Olympic guest, or you can be arrogant to the service staff in the wedding dress industry, but because of this, you may lose more where you can't see it ~ especially, most people will experience this situation once in their lives. How much correct consumption experience can you expect him to share with you?
