When it comes to wedding photography, all the pressure is on you. From not missing important occasions to your camera running out of charge, a good photographer is always prepared to face the worst situations.
Here are 5 quick situations you can anticipate during a wedding shoot.
The Family Photo Instructor
How to deal with it? If you don’t wish to ruin your reputation as a photographer, your best option is to remain silent about it. Word of mouth is one of the most powerful marketing methods. One wrong approach can impact your career. You can smile and let them know that it’s a great idea. Or if you have already clicked the picture, smile and let them know that they have covered the area. This will give them a sense of confidence and reliability over your photography. You can even ask the family prior to the event if they are looking for any particular photography style.Â

No Clarity on the Event Agenda
How to deal with it? During such mishaps, the photographer must get in touch either with the wedding couple or with the best man. They can guide you or brief you through the entire event plan for the day.Â
Missing out on Important People
How to deal with it? Talk to the wedding coordinator who will help you in finding the important guests. Have a backup camera. Don’t waste time switching batteries. Let your assistant do that job.
Running out of Charge/Memory
How to deal with it? Do not wait to swap batteries or memory cards for space. Do not waste time on deleting irrelevant pictures. Everything should have been done prior to the wedding. Your best option is to carry an extra pair of batteries and memory cards, no matter the duration of the event.
