At the heart of all photography should be having fun. People take pictures because they enjoy taking pictures, and photographers at every level love what they do. Taking pictures is a form of artistic expression that also allows us to record special moments in our lives. Wedding celebrations are some of the happiest occasions that one can be part of. Documenting the feelings and expressions on the wedding day helps those who were present to relive the emotions that they felt and lets those who weren’t in attendance get a sense of the special event.
The wedding cake is something the bride and groom select carefully. Then, try to get a photograph of the bride and groom cutting it.
Photographers also have the ability to pose individuals and groups in a way that looks the very best. This means that couples will usually be happier with their images because everyone in the photograph will look better. Photographers are also skilled at using light, another factor in creating truly flattering portraits. Therefore, as a photographic hobbyist who wants to take great digital pictures at your friend’s wedding, you should concentrate on creating pictures that complement the professional wedding photographer’s work.
Most couples want the traditional wedding photos and a collection of truly candid images to provide a sense of what the wedding day was like. They want to see feelings and emotions in the photos. You may see something that the photographer doesn’t see because they are concentrating on a shot that is deemed more important at that moment. Images like this will be well received by the bride and groom and treasured forever.
When posing two or more people, you should seek to stagger the head heights in the portrait. For instance, a tall man might be seated on a chair with his wife standing by his side. By slightly staggering the head heights, you can ensure that the viewer’s eyes will move easily from one subject’s face to the next, giving the portrait a dynamic feel. Varying the head heights makes a more interesting group image.

With people on the move, shooting in the continuous mode can help ensure that you get at least one good shot..
In most photographs, the posing of the subjects is vitally important. Many times, a photographer will have a great subject in a “fabulous location” but will fail to pose them properly. As a result, the image will not be successful.
Candids cannot be planned, but they can be anticipated. For example, as the bridesmaids, relatives, and friends arrive at the house, it is highly likely that each will give the bride a warm greeting. These genuine hugs and kisses make great candid pictures. If the bride is not completely ready, you may also have the opportunity to get some candids of them finishing up with their hair, makeup, etc. Here, women photographers have a distinct advantage in that they can usually be in the actual dressing area and have a chance to get some tasteful candids of the women finishing up the dressing process.

During the wedding ceremony itself, try to pay attention to what the professional photographer is doing. Not every professional takes the same images. If you see something of importance going on that the pro isn’t shooting, by all means get a picture. For instance, sometimes guests give readings during the wedding. As a professional, I can tell you that these images are not a big seller. As a result, some photographers may just skip those shots.
During the ceremony, professional photographers are usually focused on the couple. You can capture the emotions of the onlookers. Also, observe the guests’ reactions to everything that is going on. Wedding ceremonies are emotional events. Recording these emotions is often difficult for the professional photographer who needs to concentrate on the important symbolic moments that happen. Here is where you can shine. It will be easy for you to focus on the guests sitting across the aisle. As they smile, laugh, and cry, take pictures to document these feelings.
Different cultures, different customs very different traditions. That’s the way of weddings. Every religion, region and country has different wedding traditions. There are close similarities, yet they are still very different.

I hope that reading this text and viewing these images has provided you with some insight for taking better pictures. Like most skills, you will become better with practice. Again, I strongly suggest that every couple hire a professional photographer for their wedding day. Being responsible for recording the once in a lifetime memories of a bride and groom is a sacred trust. Professional photographers have almost no margin of error at the wedding. Every picture is important on this special day. However, the pictures that you, as a guest, take at your friend’s wedding can be a wonderful supplement to those created by the professional and they will provide great memories for the bride and groom and their families.
