Wedding photography is a major commercial endeavor that supports the bulk of the efforts for many photography studios or independent photographers. With the advent of the digital revolution in photography, todays contemporary wedding photographer needs to stay abreast of all the latest developments in the industry. Depending upon the demands of the client, a contemporary wedding photographer will usually need to provide some or all of the following: * Formal portraiture in the studio (for either the wedding and/or the engagement photos). * Outdoor photography (often at a park, beach or scenic location on the day of the wedding and/or for engagement photos). * Indoor photography at a church, temple or other private venue during the ceremony and reception. * Both posed and candid (photojournalistic) shots of the wedding couple and their guests at the religious or civil ceremony and the reception that follows. * Digital services such as digital prints or slides shows. * Albums (either traditional or the more contemporary flush mount type of album). During the film era, practitioners favored color negative film and medium-format cameras, especially by Hasselblad. Today, many more weddings are photographed with digital SLR cameras as the digital convenience provides quick detection of lighting mistakes and allows creative approaches to be reviewed immediately. www.SantaMonicaPhotography.net
