Company description
Wedding photography is not as simple as buying a decent camera and showing up at a wedding. Wedding photography is fiendishly difficult, when it comes right down to it. You have to be a documentarian, a keen photojournalist with a sharp eye and quick reflexes. You have to be a portrait photographer, honing a precise knowledge of lighting, posing, and direction. You have to be a fashion photographer, knowing how to show off both your subject and their attire. You have to be a sports photographer, capturing fast action with no do-overs. You have to be a food photographer, a photographer of architecture, a fine art shooter. You have to understand in a second how to light a huge banquet hall when the skies open up and rain pours down on an outdoor wedding. You have to manage a beachside wedding in full sun at noon in August when you have to take family portraits in the beating sun and everyone just wants to get inside to cocktail hour.
You have to do all of this and more, and you have to do it week in and week out, with no do-overs, no margin for error, and little time to think.
