Do you need to know the top 50 "Must Have" wedding photographs that will make your bridal couple happy and help you make great sales?

 

In this book, you will learn about the "50 Must Have" shots for any wedding.  

 

This valuable checklist of images you must have will make sure every wedding shoot you do is complete, profitable and loved by your bride and groom.

 

You will be shown examples of each image you must have.  You can copy these poses and compositions or adapt them to your own style.

 

All the images are created using standard and simple equipment and by a single photographer.  You will only need 1 camera, 1 speedlight and yourself to capture all these images.   You can build on these images for a wider range of photography.

 

If you have an assistant or second shooter then this makes a great guide for them to work through and use as a checklist.

You will see shots of real, everyday weddings.  

 

Many books will show you high-end weddings, with the full on glamour and glitz that only lots of money can buy.  These are real weddings, where the budgets and circumstances are not in those dizzy realms.   These are the weddings that you are going to be shooting for real.

 

I love shooting weddings. To me it is a privilege to spend the day with two people on the happiest day of their lives.

 

Weddings are such great occasions; everybody is completely loved-up and happy. Those great emotions rub off on you. At the end of every wedding I go home completely exhausted but full of those happy vibes.

 

But...

 

Photographing a wedding is one of the hardest photography jobs there is. It is a one-off unrepeatable event. Events are unpredictable and the best shots will be of fleeting moments. Lighting conditions can be atrocious and with ever changing technical needs to really need to be on top of your game and you camera technically.

 

There is also a huge chunk of people management in there too. There are times when you need to blend into the background and then there are times that you must take charge of 200 or 300 hundred people.

 

You must work quickly and effectively, producing great shots every time. Yet so little of the day is under your control at all. You have to deal with grotty backdrops, difficult lighting, awkward children, the weather and so much more. No matter what the day throws at you - you have to come out on top.

 

Wedding photography starts long before the wedding day.  You will learn how to use an engagement shoot to improve your wedding images and sales.

 

You will learn how to connect with your wedding couple and put them at their ease so that on their special day you create wonderful, relaxed wedding photographs.

 

From there I take you through the timetable of a typical wedding day – a full 14 hour day from the very start to the very end.

 

You will see how each image you must capture fits within the day, where you need to catch a specific moment.  You will learn where you can be flexible.

 

The sequence of images is designed for proper story telling.  This particularly effective method of wedding photography encourages newly-weds to take larger albums and purchase more images.

 

If you are presenting slideshows of the wedding day then the story format gives you an automatic sequence of photographs that make perfect sense.
