Apart from using modern and advanced equipment, wedding photography requires a photographer who is experienced and with a lot of expertise. The success of a photo-shoot depends a lot on the client requirements, location, lighting and the venue. This is exactly why a professional photographer ensures the use of modern equipment, providing his clients with images that reflect their mood and people around.

Many a times when somebody recommends a wedding photographer the first thing that he is asked is “why should I be hiring a photographer when my family can do it” or “what is so great about this photographer?”. The answer to these questions are simple, first off photography is not a single thing. There are different types of photography like wildlife, wedding, portrait, fashion and many more. The techniques and equipment used for the different types are different.

The most common and important elements of wedding photography are lighting and lenses.

Lighting is very important because perfect pictures are captured with great knowledge of the lighting. Professional photographers know the right way to handle lighting to their advantage. The power of lighting decides the style of photography a person is trying to get to. The use of off camera flash by some photographers helps bring creativity to the pictures. Some others use equipment that shape light like soft boxes, umbrellas, grid diffusers to work with the element of light. Flexibility is brought about with the help of wireless systems. In order to balance light photographers use grid diffusers that help in softening skin tones.

It is not just the light and style that determine wedding photography but the camera lenses as well. However experienced one is they cannot let down the importance of lenses in wedding photography. Great examples are the blurring effect produced by a zoom lens when manipulated with appropriate shutter speed. A certain level of compression is provided by using the zooming technique but without altering the quality of the photographs. A photographer can stop being very dependent on using flashes if he has the 50mm lens which gives the picture a subtle and natural look while producing stunning portraits.

In addition to experience and expertise the use of light and lenses in the right manner will help create magic that a couple can relish even after a considerable amount of time. It is vital that you choose a photographer who stands by your side and fulfills your expectations.
