Over time our memories fade but when photographic images of a wedding day are captured, everything comes flooding back. For this reason, people usually hire a professional digital wedding photographer to capture the most important day of their lives.
Most wedding photographers have assistants so they can create a wedding album that will be memorable but if you want to take pictures of a friend's wedding, who will help you? BTW, I found a site about Madrid wedding photographers in Spanish: fotografos boda Madrid. Fortunately for wedding photographers they can use an assistant to help them get the right shots but if you're a friend taking pictures, then how do you take good shots of the day?If you want to take photographs of your friend's or relations wedding then you will have to do it on your own because you won't have an assistant like the professionals have. Here are some tips if you find yourself at a friend or relations wedding taking photos with your digital camera.
Firstly, if you want to take a picture of the couple or any other guest, make sure that the background is good and the shot will not be too crowded. Often when there is a good background there are just too many people in the shot, so if this is the situation, just try and capture a nice head and shoulders shot of the couple.
If there is bright sunlight or you are using flash, ask guests who are wearing glasses to remove them just for the shot or as an alternative they could turn their head slightly to the side. If there's a couple or a group that you wish to include in the picture, you should use the zoom function in to get the ideal image but do not shoot against the light so that dark images appear.
A zoom lens will often enable you to take pictures that would not otherwise be possible as people are not so conscious of their photo being taken. With digital wedding photography always remember to be ready for the shot as it saves people posing.
Digital cameras rely on two things, memory and power and the last thing you want when you take your shots is to run out of memory or for the batteries to die on you. A one gigabyte card should be the bare minimum you have if your camera is a six mega pixel model, a larger capacity if the camera has a higher mega pixel rating.
The reason you need to set the cameras resolution to the maximum is because the colors will be richer and if you want to enlarge the photos, it won't be a problem. You can do this by saving albums on your personal computer to free up the space on your memory card or burn them to a cd or dvd.
If you are interested in digital wedding photography you should enroll in a college and who knows you may find your passion becomes a profession.
