| Since photography is all about lighting and capturing the light, I think you can figure out what you need to do.Visit a couple of wedding/portrait studios and look at the samples they have on display. You will see what you need to learn .. AND next you attend a wedding, see what the photographer is doing, with their flash and when using natural light |

| Photography, the word literally means writing with light, does that give you a clue?You need to know all aspects of using your camera, you need to KNOW what the results will be before you press the shutter, you don't get a second chance with Wedding Photography. It takes years of using your camera(s) in all conditions to get this experience, if your asking such a basic question, I wouldn't think your there yet.It's really difficult to be a Wedding Photographer in these digital days as there's so many who people think are 'experts' out there.Chris |

| Is it possible? Sure is! Will you be successful? NO, YOU WON'T!Anyone can start a business, but it doesn't mean they'll be successful!Subject, lighting, and composition are the three major aspects of beautiful portraits. Don't start a business until you know how to choose them correctly. I suggest you go to photography school! |

| Yes, because I have. I am a hand's on learner with no photography training/schooling. I have successfully shot 5 weddings in the first 6 months of starting my business (including two weddings where I was a guest and the MOB& bride hated their paid photographers photos and asked me for mine) Knowing and learning about lighting is important but if you are like me and have only a flash and no extra lighting equipment, you can still make it! You have to learn how to use your camera, your camera settings and the natural lighting available (and what is available around you)Good Luck to you, please feel free to email me with any questions. |

Everything About Your Wedding
Wedding Marketplace
Buy and sale all wedding related products.
Where and How to Start?
There’s so much to do, it can be mind-numbing. Don’t worry. I planned and held my first wedding in two months and my second wedding in three months. If you have the luxury of a year or more, feel lucky!
Wedding Invitation
Ideally, invitations should be mailed out 6-8 weeks before the big day to give guests time to make arrangements to attend and RSVP back to you.
Wedding Attire
Where I come from, buying a tuxedo is virtually unheard of. Renting is probably the way to go to realize the ultimate savings on the groom’s attire.
Wedding Flowers
Cheap doesn't mean that your wedding flowers can't be beautiful. All flowers are lovely no matter what they cost.
Wedding Ceremony Decoration
Most wedding ceremonies are short and sweet, so why spend a majority...
Wedding Music
Music for your wedding ceremony could consist of live or recorded performances.
Wedding Photography
Pictures are priceless, and you want to be sure you have plenty of good pictures of your special day.
Wedding Favors
Some brides don’t like the idea of giving gifts to her guests, but we think it’s a nice gesture as a thank you...
Wedding Food
Wedding food can take a huge chunk out of your wedding budget.
Wedding Cake
Your wedding cake is the centerpiece of the reception. It is a scrumptious dessert as well as part of a tradition
Wedding Party
The question of whether or not to serve alcohol at your wedding is one that can cause dissension in the ranks of family.
