Wedding photos are only part of the equation.
They call it “The Big Day” for a reason. Weddings require a massive a
mount of planning. And those logistics don’t just apply to the ceremony, the cake, and the conga line.
“I respect the hell out of wedding photographers,” says editorial and portrait photographer Grace Rivera. She doesn’t normally do weddings, but shooting a recent destination wedding gave her a new perspective on the genre. “It’s really tough. You have to embody fashion, documentary, event, portrait — every field of photography — into one day where you have seven hours to create a huge body of work.”
With so much to juggle, from lengthy shot lists and multiple locations to wrangling a large wedding party, and a finite amount of time to get your photos, it’s a tall order for even the best wedding photographers. Putting together a strategy is essential, and that preparation can save you when the best-laid plans fall apart.
