TIPS TO CHOOSE LENSES FOR WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY

Step 1 - Decide on Lens Types

Look through wedding magazines to try and decide on the type of effects you want to achieve at the wedding. Keep in mind that you will probably shoot not only the bride and groom, their families and the wedding party, but also candid shots during the reception. Once you have an idea of the types of pictures you will shoot, you be able to choose the right lenses. For example, you may need soft focus or fish eye lenses affordable wedding photography

Step 2 - Research

Do your research to find out about the very best brands and types of lenses anyone can get for both portrait and candid photography. This is actually pretty difficult to do. Everybody has their own preferences and favorite types of equipment. The brand of camera you have may limit which lenses are compatible Beauty photography

Step 3 - Talk to The Couple

Before deciding on the types of lenses you will need for a certain job, you first need to talk to your customers. This will ensure that both you and the couple are happy with the outcome.

Step 4 - Portrait Lenses

You must purchase a good quality portrait lens for still shots. Using a wide angled lens at a short distance will help you to take photographs where the subjects stand out from the background. This popular technique known as foreshortening is especially good for wedding portraits. These wide angled lenses are best if the bride and groom want pictures that highlight every detail Cool wedding photographer

Step 5 - Consider Your Budget

Camera lenses for digital SLR cameras are available in a wide range of prices. If you have a budget, then you might be restricted to certain types and brands of lens. Lenses can vary from a few hundred to thousands of dollars  famous photographer

Step 6 - Use More than One Camera

Changing lenses might take less than 20 seconds, but it can be cumbersome and tricky. Many professional wedding photographers carry 2 or more cameras with different lenses so that they can easily take different types of photo. If you are using more than one camera, then make sure the lenses will fit both cameras wherever possible manhattan  wedding photographer

Wedding Photography Tips

1. Once Upon a Time...Wedding Photography - Male groom kissing hand of female brideCapture emotions and tell the story to make magical moments last a lifetime. Ultimately as a photographer you need to be observant and present but also inconspicuous. Couples shouldn’t be asked to repeat poses, so be ready to capture small moments showing affection. This wedding photography image shows a groom kissing his brides hand; the large aperture (shallow Depth of Field) of f/5.6 keeps the emphasis on the groom and the hand, but still shows off the bride’s bright smile. For multiple wedding shots use continuous shooting mode and hold down the shutter button as long as you’d like.

2. Grab the OpportunityWedding Photograp of a Bride and groom leaving church with motion blur effectThere will be hundreds of special moments on the wedding day that you as the photographer must notice and capture. Certain events, such as the vows and walking down the aisle cannot be repeated, so give yourself a good position in the venue to begin with, but also keep out of the way. A nice effect is to use the slow sync flash mode, so you capture the blur of the couple walking, but the center of the frame stays sharp because the flash freezes it. Turn the mode dial to TV or S (Shutter Priority) mode and use a slow shutter speed of 1/4th of a second. Use either the on-camera flash or a separate one for more power. When you use slow sync, the shutter remains open much longer to allow in more light for your exposure Wedding Videographer

3. Take Unusual Wedding PhotosBride and groom on the wedding dayThere will always be time for the formal posed wedding photos with all the friends and family members. The fun, casual moments are sporadic and less predictable. Look out for tender moments where the couple shares a story or a joke. You might capture outright affection or a glancing look they share. Use flash to freeze the moment and a small aperture of f/14 upwards to keep things sharp. Remember to keep the shutter speed at 1/250th of a second and higher as you don’t want to risk any blur. You can also consider using a warming filter, known as the 81A. This has a slight peach tone, but makes the skin glow and look alive Affordable Wedding Photography

4. Capture them LeavingWedding Picture of a Bride and groom walking out the churchdoorThe classic wedding photograph is the couple leaving the marriage venue, when the guests throw rice or confetti at the couple. Generally this will be in the day time with plenty of light, so choose a large aperture (f/2.8-f/5.6) to keep the couple in focus and the background slightly blurred. Use a shutter speed of 1/125th of a second so you can see some of the confetti in the air. Use flash if you want to guarantee that the image will be sharp. Consider using the continuous shooting mode, so you have a series of shots of the couple leaving while confetti is thrown at them

5. Tell the Fairy TailA silhouette photograph of a bride and groom kissingWhen it comes to the formal wedding shots, although most people will want the standard family line up images, remember to be creative. Take your bride and groom away from the commotion and place them indoors by a big window or where there is a sliver of light. The idea is to catch their silhouette, so you need the light source to be behind them. Get the couple to kiss, making sure you include the back of the brides dress and veil for the outline. Remember to turn off the flash and use either spot or multi-zone metering mode. Take a reading of just the bright area and then point your camera at them and shoot! Ideally you should use a tripod for this shot, although handholding at 1/160s should keep things reasonably sharp Famous Photographer
