Experienced Event Photographer - First Wedding
Hi there! So tomorrow is my first wedding shoot, looking for some last minute tips or advice. For context, I’ve been a photographer for about a decade and a pro for about 5. My working experience is almost entirely with events so I’m comfortable with following and shooting the ROS. Most of that experience has been corporate stuff so for the most part low stakes and candids. I’m confident in my ability to shoot the wedding but I just know there’s going to be some major differences. What can I expect? Where do you look for inspo? One thing that I’m nervous about is posing the bride and groom for those “framer” shots. Thanks in advance!
Before you come at me in the comments, I did my homework - please let me know if there’s anything I’m missing!
- I have a shot list, detailed group photo member lists
- detailed schedule for the next few days
- worked with the bride and groom to understand what they’re hoping to see and set expectations
- we’ll be visiting the two venues tomorrow to walk the plan and gets some test shots
- I have a plan for distributing photos to guests after the reception
