12 Tips For Wedding Photography Melbourne Photographers May Find Useful

By Gloria Mason


A marriage ceremony is a very important event for any couple. Most of the memories are kept in a photo album so that they can be relived for generations. The photographer, therefore, becomes a very important part of the event. Below are 12 tips for wedding photography Melbourne professionals should use to ensure that they give lasting memories.

Visit the location beforehand. A better understanding of the place will help you decide the best places where you can take your shots. When you play the areas in your mind repeatedly, you will be more familiar with everything come the day of the wedding.

Let the family give you a coordinator. If it is a large wedding, you will have a difficult time organizing different people to come and have their group photos. This may waste a lot of your time. However, if you have someone who knows everyone to assist, you can take the shots within a short time and without leaving anyone important out.

Preparation is key. Everything can always go wrong at the last minute. Put your things in order and check to ensure that everything is working fine. Have the memory cards blank and the batteries charged. Have a backup plan in case of bad weather.

Take note of the key people. Once you get the contract, keep in touch with the family. If possible, be at the rehearsal so that you can study the families and identify a few important members of the two families and key friends. This will make your time easy and reduce chances of conflict.

Set expectations. Talk with the couple in advance so that they know what to expect and you know what is required of you. Show them your portfolio to evaluate your work and make an informed decision. You will be more confident if you know they like your work.

Have a backup photographer. Be a professional; do not work alone. You can have one person take the formal pictures and the other to deal with candid shots. You will also be able to access different angles without moving a lot.

Get the details. Do not have your attention always focused on the bride and groom. You have to give them something that will break the monotony in their album. Consider having intermittent shots of lesser things such as shoes.

Come with two cameras. Good professionals always have one long-lensed camera of ordinary shots where there is plenty of space and a short-lensed one for accessing squeezed areas. The second one can also act as a backup.

Turn off the sound on the camera. You do not want the camera making noise and interrupting special moments such as exchange of vows. If the camera has a silence shutter, then consider turning it on.

Be early. This is the only way you can remain composed and be able to capture everything. Leave your place early enough so that you can avoid any inconvenience.

Wear comfortable shoes. The last thing regarding wedding photography Melbourne residents would love is a relaxed professional. You will move around quite a lot, so ensure you are in comfy dressing.
