Dress like the guests.
The most useful and effective trick that any wedding photographer should know by know whenever there are wedding events to shoot is that you should dress like how the guests are dressed. Get to know what the dress code is and do your best to try to abide with that. You don’t have to go on a full scale shopping spree every time you have a wedding to shoot, mind you. There is a pretty good chance that you already have everything that you could possibly need in order for you to look presentable and at the same time blend in with the guests during the weddings that you need to shoot. It is all a matter of making that conscious decision and effort to go ahead and blend in with the rest of them. Talk to your clients and try to see if they have anything to say about the dress code. It is always best if you go straight to the source as much as possible. There will be some clients who might have specific instructions such as putting on a head scarf or something similar to that. You need to make sure that you are aware of things like these so that you don’t only blend in with the rest of the crowd or with the rest of the guests, you are also making sure that you don’t end up feeling embarrassed as well by looking like the only odd one out.
Try not to talk too much or try not to talk at all during the wedding.
If you can get away with giving out instructions via hand signs as a wedding photographer leeds, then that would be even better. You never really know what kind of people you will end up dealing with. This means that there are a lot of possibilities wherein you might end up annoying or offending any of them. Even if you mean well, not all of the things that you say as a wedding photographer will always come out right no matter how well versed you may be with the spoken tongue. You might as well minimize it by minimizing chatter altogether. This will make your job so much easier to handle.
Less words mean less drama and less mistakes.
People won’t really notice you all that much if you don’t speak up ever too often. More than that, it will make your work flow so much smoother and so much more fluid if you don’t crowd it up by speaking up too much. Try to be engaging with your facial expressions and with your overall disposition. Engaging your clients doesn’t always have to be in the form of you saying anything to them in the first place so you might as well go for the silent treatment. Smile a little bit more than you normally would. Chances are, they are so busy with the wedding and with everything that’s going on, they won’t even mind you all that much when you are shooting.
