Photography is in itself a broad field of interest and career. Some photographers specialize in doing pre-wedding photography, mastering this only this particular field without entering into the hustles and bustles of actual wedding photography. But what makes the two actually different? And why should aspiring photographers try to venture along the promising field of doing pre-wedding highlights?
Some of the most attractive reasons are thus given below.
1. The time of preparation and work is a lot longer. This first reason must be understood in a very positive sense. When you work on just the pre-wedding highlights, you will not be as much pressured as you would when the set wedding day calls for your attention and you have to do extra fast work during the ceremony and the celebration. When doing just the pre-wedding photography, you can be given an ample time for the conceptualization, the actual work of pre-nuptial shooting, and the processing of the pre-wedding highlights. Thus, you can do perfect editing far more freely.
2. Couples love to spread out the news in a very inviting manner. Among the most common signs of a friend’s upcoming wedding is the posting or release of a pre-nuptial album in a social networking site. You as the photographer can do more than just shooting pre-nuptial photos. You can actually enhance the digital announcement by offering to layout an official announcement poster or card of invitation. You can even extend your services by offering to create wedding souvenirs that are based on the pre-nuptial photos you have taken. These extra tasks will of course mean more income on your part.
3. It will be easier and faster for you to combine photography and videography when you first concentrate on doing pre-wedding highlights. This combination can also enhance the services you do as described in the previous item. With pre-wedding videography added into your list of skills, you can then create an invitational video which potentially strengthens interest not only of your clients’ friends to your clients’ wedding, but also of the watching virtual crowds to your package of pre-wedding services.
From the above discussions, this specific field of doing pre-wedding highlights can thus be seen as fitting for those who are yet starting in photography. In time, the pre-wedding photographer can then try to venture also on the actual, wedding-day work. The latter goal simply needs a stronger input of guts and stamina in order to endure the challenges of the sweet big day.
