For an introvert I commend you on instructing the wedding party on what to do (if that makes any sense). One would think that instructing people to do things would be unpleasant, with that being the case. Thanks for giving us the behind the scenes. Super helpful!

"Because I'm more introverted I use my 85mm" The same reason why I've preferred my 85mm. I CAN be charming however some might take that offensively so I stick to being professional.

Dude as an aspiring photographer considering getting into weddings your videos are invaluable. I love that you mention being introverted because that's the biggest thing holding me back. I am afraid of getting in the middle of things with people I've never met before but your videos give me encouragement! Keep on making those sweet videos!

@Bpjames 5 жыл бұрын

so cool that you emphasize that moment (around 11:00 ) after the ceremony for candids! That's always been my fave spot to be too, because you get the "real" first kiss between the bride and groom, the private one that's not for everyone to see. I love your stuff and wish you all the success you can handle!

First off, Thank You Taylor for sharing your knowledge. You videos are indeed realistic. Many tutorials, I quesstion, because I never seem to have that much time at a wedding to do some some of the things they are doing on a typical wedding day. Second, I live in the South Georgia Bible belt. So typically I shoot inside church venues. It's however, always sweet though, when we have a outdoor assignment. Well speaking of which, I am off to shoot a outdoor wedding and it looks like it could rain?? Praying for the best! Thanks again and have a great day!!

Quick question: why shoot in crop mode vs. cropping as you need to in post? Totally get it if saving time in post is the goal there. You'd be recording the same image though, just with spare information, but you'd gain more flexibility in post. Rookie question I know.

On the topic of getting at least one candid shot of each guest, how do you keep track of whom you've already photographed? How do you avoid missing someone? Do you request a list of all the guests and then ask them after each shot, checking the name off, or are you able to keep track of all of them mentally? I've never had this requested (although to be fair, I've only ever shot 3 weddings) but I really like the idea, so I'd love some pointers. Great videos btw. I'm grabbing a lot of great tips off of these. :D
