How to Become a Wedding Photographer
Before you photograph any wedding, make sure you're prepared with the proper insurance, contracts, and licensing. Keep websites and social media up to date with your latest work.



Build your portfolio with photo shoots and wedding fests, or gain more confidence by becoming a second shooter. Grab the essentials for your photography kit, like fast prime lenses and flash and speed lights.



Invest in the relationship with your clients and pre-visit venues before the big day. During the wedding, take as many detail shots as possible, and under any circumstance, stay calm.
