3.  Be Unique  It’s easy to say, but hard to implement. Having a unique style or flair to your photographs depends on equipment and talent. If the photographer has one of these, it’s hard to get it right without the other.  Be Natural  The best things about weddings are those little moments that are forever treasured. It could be seeing loved ones you haven’t seen for a long time, or it could be your best friend’s cute toddler getting on the dance floor and loving every second of the party.  Be Prepared  No one can predict what the weather will be like months in advance, and weddings more often than not are booked that far ahead. It’s more than important for wedding photographers to be as prepared as they can for any eventuality.  Be Specific  On the day, it is important for you as a photographer or person getting married to be specific about what you want out of the day. Wedding photography is a personal thing for both the couple and the photographer, but in different ways.

4.  The Beach  Probably the most obvious choice in the list, as there is just something magical and special by the sea. Sandy dunes and grasses are perfect for a rustic, countryside theme, especially if you can get an old, wooden hut or two in there.  The Mountains  Whether it’s wet and misty, or sunny with a vista to the horizon, you will never fail to be impressed every time you walk past the framed picture of you and your partner (friends and family optional) standing at the top or bottom of a great, green mountain.  The Skyline  If you can get to a place in the city in which you can have a great view of the skyline, it can end up being a really unique and special way of celebrating your marriage, and the city you love.

5.  The Forest  Back to nature, there are many venues buried in the forest that will host extra special weddings and receptions that are almost out of this world. If you’re looking for more of a fantasy setting, then the forest is the place to do it.  Your Favorite Spot  All couples that are ready to spend their lives together will have those extra special places that are personal to them. It could be a cafe, it could be a park bench, or it could be the gym!  Wherever is special to you and your partner is the perfect backdrop for your wedding photographs, and whatever happens, it will always serve as a memory of one of the best days of your life.

6.  Equipment  As obvious as this may sound, there is no point in putting yourself out into the world as a business if you don’t have the equipment to pull it off. You will need a level of background knowledge of cameras and related tech in order to invest in the right brands and models.  Attitude  There is literally no point in attempting to be a wedding photographer if you lack the right attitude. This includes the entire process, from setting up your business to your customers’ wedding day.  Marketing  Being able to tell people who and where you are is an obvious must in the wedding photography business, and there are several ways to do this.

7.  Time  The last thing you will want to do in wedding photography is let people down. If wedding photography is a part time job on the side, or even a hobby, there’s no point in offering the service to customers if you are doing a main job that requires a lot of your time, or is reluctant to support you.  Talent  Talent can be a natural thing in wedding photography, but it can also be learned. If you are keen enough to learn the business and want to get better, ask friends and family to model for you as a favor, or offer to do the photography for the latest get together. This will help in all aspects of your own particular style and flair.

8. Instagram  Instagramis a fairly informal forum in which to show off your work, but it is nothing but beneficial, as so many people use it. All you need to do is set up an account, and you let the wedding photography do the talking for you. Flickr  Flickris another free service in which you can categorise and prioritise as much as 1TB worth of photographs. 1TB is a lot, and if you have the time to fill it, you have time to select the ones you will keep and the ones you won’t. Website  Having your own website is still an essential commodity, even with social media. Finding a free website builder is easy, and you can get your own domain for as little as £9 a year. Shop  Whilst having a physical space of your own in an office or shop can cost more money than you may want to spend, there are still many people who will want to meet you and see your work in person before they decide to work with you. Wedding Fairs  If you can book a stall, or share with friends at wedding fairs, these are great places to meet couples face to face without them potentially even hearing of you before.     

9.  Do: Hire a professional  Professional wedding photographers do this day-to-day, and can capture the more tender and personal moments far better than someone who is there to celebrate with you.  Don’t: Leave it until the last minute  As soon as you have set the date at your perfect venue, get on to your preferred wedding photographer and book them!  Do: Trust venues and planners  As long as the venue is reputable, their photographer will be too. Otherwise, they wouldn’t be working there.  Similarly, if your planner has someone amazing in mind, by all means have a look at their previous work and veto if you’re not happy, but let the planner do what you hired them to do.

10.  Don’t: Overthinkit  If you limit yourself to looking at a certain number of websites or visiting a handful of shops in one area, then you will undoubtedly find a suitable person with a fantastic talent to suit you.  Do: Look for flair  Websites and profiles on social media are the best way to see how someone works, and what their overall style is. You may want to find a photographer who takes unusual or quirky photographs, or you may want something more traditional.  Don’t: Forget them on the day  This one is fairly obvious, but is also an easy thing to do. Your photographer is most likely going to be with you and your guests for the entire day. Although it’s work for them, they will still need and appreciate a little recognition.
