Looking for some pointers.
Posted: Sat Nov 22, 2008 5:48 amHey everyone, I've recently shot my first 'professional' (term used loosely) wedding this past october and I was hoping to be able to pull some advice from the forums. Ive seen a lot of talent and technical knowlege in many of these galleries on PBase and am just looking to become a better photographer. Im starting the second year of my business and want to begin marketing my photography for 2009 however going through the photo's of this particular job I feel that I really have a long way to go before I can really be happy with my own work.
In any case, these wedding photos were really well recieved and I practically gave them away. But I'd eventually like to get to the level of quality to where I can charge a more standard market fee for my efforts rather than shooting at cost just because Im starving for material. With that said, any ideas, suggestions, tips, or any advice, technical, artistic or otherwise would be really appreciated. I kept all the EXIF info but the lenses I used were a Sigma 18-200mm F/3.5-5.6 and a Sigma 10-24mm F/3.5-5.6 (I think). The gallery is here: http://www.pbase.com/brandproductions/kelsey
The gallery was built to be a sampling of some of the better photo's I took. I realize that there are some 'key' shots missing from the group but the clients weren't extreemly cooperative and the guests a little less so.
Im relatively young and and I dont have any formal training so Im here to learn. Be brutally honest if you have to and thanks in advance for the help
