The hardest thing if you are a friend or relation is trying to take photographs of the wedding day that they will be pleased with. This article highlights a few basic techniques and styles for anyone who wants to capture a friend or family members wedding using a digital camera.

Unless you know how to compensate or have taken the shot purposely for effect; remember the background is very important. Often the couple is in the thick of a crowd and at this point it may be easier to try and capture just their head and shoulders.

Try to get guests that have spectacles on to either remove them or hold their head at an angle so that there isn’t a reflection obscuring their eyes. To avoid people in the shot coming out dark when the sunlight is behind them, unless you know what you are doing, move them so the sun is behind you.

Candid shots are also dramatic and these portraits often reveal more than the quality of the picture itself; in fact, many professionals use the zoom to capture intimate and memorable moments. Allays be ready for the next digital wedding photograph because you can’t ask people to repeat those unforgettable moments that everybody wants to see again and again.

All your efforts will be wasted if you forget to have fresh batteries or carry enough memory for your digital camera to take every image from the day. Professional digital slr cameras start at 6 mega pixels and very few compacts are now below that so your card will need to be a minimum of one gigabyte to be on the safe side.
