Photography: Think Simpler

The Ultimate Wedding Photography Checklist

with 8 comments

I just got an email with an image detailing with what to me, is one of the most complete and organized wedding image checklists I’ve ever seen. Take a look for yourself and learn from it. If you want to get more into weddings, our buddies over at Snapknot.com can help to promote you, but you can also check out our intro. Another tips that I can add is this: don’t use a Rebel for wedding photography. As you can see that wedding photographer got completely steamrolled. Instead, check out our equipment list. I typically bring all this to a wedding.

Big thanks to John for the email.

    Just one thing to add… the sanctity of the church wedding dictates that no photographers should be too close to the couple throughout the course of the wedding ceremony. No running around the church to get that right angle. Best is have zoom lens & someone to cover a different angle. Otherwise you might find yourself not hired again or referred to by anybody who attended that wedding. Just my two cents to help u guys if u never went to church weddings b4.

    I am an amateur with aspirations of moving up. I finally have some decent gear and I am about to shoot my first wedding. Its for my sister and she knows where I am at as a photographer so there is no pressure on her side. (it is her 3rd wedding) Thank you so much for this checklist. It is a great place to start. I am so glad I found your blog. I am learning so much from it. Thanks a million

    I think the list is fantastic to have, especially since it’s compared to Pokemon Snap! :) Just one question about the opening paragraph, should it really say “snapSHITS”? Just curious :)

    :) Thanks for all the wonderful blog posts!

      I wondered the same thing when the reader sent it in. But I rolled with it. If you get past that stuff, you’ll be alright with the rest of the list.
