Pay attention to the shooting scenes

Having read quite a few posts and visited numerous websites, I gradually learned from experts' techniques that if one can record some details of the wedding process, the film might be more meaningful. For example, rings not yet worn, flowers, wedding dresses not yet put on, or photos inside the ceremony hall, etc. These photos may not be masterpieces, but when pieced together, they will evoke a sense of warmth and make people feel that you are truly dedicated to helping others with their photography.

Unmissable scenes

There are some unmissable scenes that must be photographed as they add flavor to the entire memory. For instance, the process of the newlyweds getting ready, which can express their emotions through their eyes and body language; or the smiles of the newlyweds' parents and friends filled with blessings. Personally, I believe that the process of the newlyweds preparing for the wedding ceremony is the easiest time to capture great shots because you can relax and let your creativity flow. However, during the actual ceremony, you may be too busy recording to have time to think.

Key scenes to document

Throughout the entire ceremony, if you are the only person doing the follow-up shooting, I believe the main focus should be on documenting [Taizhou Photography Learning](http://www.tz-ainisi.org). If you are experienced or dedicated, some very good photos can come out during this process. However, as a beginner, faithfully recording the process for others is the most important thing for me, so during this time, I focus more on faithful documentation rather than personal expression. If there is more than one photographer, the situation improves significantly—one can be responsible for faithful documentation while the other focuses on creativity, without interfering with each other.

Post-production organization

Post-production organization is very important. Due to individual differences, I will hand over all the original photos along with the edited ones based on my preferences. This way, it ensures that all photos are given to the client without any omissions, and also allows them to see the modifications made to the photos, which they might like.
