Wedding Photography Before Wedding Ceremony

Before the wedding ceremony, it has been a tradition to include in the wedding photography to take the photos of the bride at their home or maybe in a hotel. Most of these are indoor shots which includes taking of the photos of the entire wedding paraphernalia such as the wedding gown, shoes, veils, wedding cords and other related items. Do not take photos though when the bride is not yet ready; make it a point to take the pictures of the bride when she is at her best.

Since the wedding photography is usually done indoors, it is necessary to invest in equipment that has state of the art flash unit. This is separated from the camera. Most of the candid shots are indoors which means you have to make use lots of lighting so that you will come out with the best shot. Opening the curtains will not do the trick or direct flash will not help either. With the separate flash unit, you have to use a reflector and bounce the flash on it or you can use light colored ceiling as the reflector to come out with a flattering and soft light.


Make as many candid shot as you can but be sure that you also have shots with several poses. Ensure that the environment is more relaxed and take the pictures in group. Usually the shots are taken while the bride is having her makeup, with her wedding dress, shots are taken with the bride's parents and then group shots with friends.
Take the pictures when the bride is going out of the room, going out of the house or hotel and when she is getting into the wedding car. Shoot when the bride is inside the car with the photographer on the front seat.

It is important that you are geared with the necessary equipment when you are doing the wedding photography. Ensure that you have spare batteries that are fully charged, a good set of flash for indoor shots or even outdoor when the weather is cloudy, and another set of lens. A back up or assistant photographer is always necessary on events like this and they come very handy as well but do not bring lots of equipment with you which are not necessary. Study well your photo assignment so that you will know what you will need when you go to the location.
