DedupeEffective wedding photography tips
Last Updated :Weddings are magical, the charm that can just about draw anyone to bless the wedding couple. The instinctive ability of the photographer can help capture the aura. It is the vision of a good photographer who could get some stunning live moments captured. Here, are some simple ways of being effective with your captures:
Effective tips:
1. Capturing Camera-shy subjects
The wedding couple are the models for the day and it is obvious that they may not be modelling everyday. There would be subjects who are camera-shy and may not be comfortable during the photo-shoot. It is nice to go by your instincts in dealing with your subjects, remember each subject needs a different way of handling. The best shots are when your subjects are relaxed, and then the poses will not seem mechanical. And you would realize in time that the natural spontaneous moments are your perfect captures.2. Story in Poses
Wedding poses taken elegantly can make the end results really effective. Have a dialog with the couple, make them relax, and request for poses, which are a perfect fit for the couple. Some poses are awkward and out-of-place and you can sense it, avoid overdoing and try and capture the story in the couple with as natural poses as possible.3. Look around for the photographing opportunities
The wedding venue is bridal in its own respect, so beautifully decked up, and calling for attention. Do look around and try and capture the details, after all there was a lot of effort placed in every corner and some of the final shots would just make your story for the wedding couple complete. Listen and you will know your best photographing opportunities are closer than you think.4. Adding Grain
Explore the usage of adding grain to some of the wedding rituals, which will simply enhance the moment. Adding grain could bring out a scintillating effect, remember to experiment and check out what adding the right grain really does.5. The Action and Photographing opportunities
Wedding ceremonies and rituals are packed with action, the friends; family emotions spilling in every corner are actions, which need attention and capture. Do try and look out for action during the event and remember to be around to capture it. For a few events, which run parallel, having an assistant could help, this would help you not miss out on any photographing opportunity and you could have a complete story captured effectively.

PicBackMan does exactly what it's supposed to. It's quick and efficient. It runs unobtrusively in the background and has done an excellent job of uploading more than 300GB of photos to 2 different services. After having lost a lot of personal memories to a hard drive crash, it's nice to know that my photos are safe in 2 different places.

LOVE this program! Works better than ANY other program out there that I have found to upload thousands of pictures WITH SUB-FOLDERS to SmugMug!
Thank you so much for what you do! :) #happycustomer

I pointed PicBackMan at a directory structure, and next time I looked - all the photos had uploaded! Pretty cool. I use SmugMug and while I really like it, the process of creating directories in is pretty laborious when you need to make 80+ at a time. This was a breeze. Thank you!

PicBackMan was really easy to setup and has been running for 3 days now backing up all my locally saved photos to Flickr. My photos are really valuable to me so it's great to be able to have them easily backed up to a secure location.
Jim Griffin It's AWESOME!! I have tens of thousands of pictures...and they are now successfully uploaded to SmugMug, where they are safely backed up, and I can edit and organize them. If you are hesitating about using PicBackMan, hesitate no longer...try it...and you'll be glad you did!!

I started with the basic plan, went to premium and now on their platinum plan and it's more than worth the price for me. PicBackMan has saved me many tedious hours of effort moving many files between my various cloud and photo site services and my local computers.

I am very satisfied and surprised at the same time with Pic BackMan. The service is very good and useful. I used it to transfer my photos from Dropbox to my Flickr accound. I highly recomment it.

PicBackMan was an answer to many a prayer. How can I get this MASSIVE collection of photos onto a service that cripples uploading? PicBackMan. I uploaded approximately 85,000 photos in less than a month. It would have taken me close to a year to get all of those photos where they needed to go. Nothing short of brilliant.
Dary MerckensI have thousands of family photos and it's always been such a pain to upload them to various cloud services for offline storage. Well not anymore! PicBackMan makes backing everything up a complete breeze. I don't know how I ever lived without it!
Glen MartineauI was poking around the Internet looking for an easy tool to help me consolidate 15 years of my pictures from Google Photos and Flickr etc - this tool was very easy to use and was painless to setup.
