DIY Wedding Photography Tips – Megapixels

January 23, 2010 | Author: Leslie, Photography

Doing your own wedding photographs can save you tons of money, and if you are wondering if you can do it, here are a few tips to help you do just so.

For starters, if you and your family have digital cameras, you can put them to very good use during your wedding. If you have a 6 – 8 megapixel digital camera, you’re off to a good start since images captured on this type of camera can be blown up to a size of up to 8 by 10 without any distortion whatsoever. The higher the megapixels, the better and larger prints are produced.

Having said so, if you intend on making pictures mostly for your photo album, and perhaps a shot or so that is big, you’re pretty much OK with a 10 megapixel digital camera. Besides, there’s always Adobe Photoshop to edit your pictures, right?

Great Ideas to Save on Wedding Photography Costs

October 14, 2009 | 5K Weddings DIY, Author: Leslie, Low Cost Ideas, Photography

You canhave the wedding of your dreams without busting you and your fiance’s savings accounts. You can save on your wedding photography costs by following these tips.

First of all, don’t agree to the price the first wedding photographer you get to speak with costs. Always ask at least 3-4 wedding photographers. Although it may seem a hassle, in the end, when it comes to how much printing each picture costs and the services altogether means a lot.

Second, when you choose your wedding date, try to avoid the peak season for weddings, which is usually the months of May through August. During this time, the demand for wedding photographers is high and they tend to charge more than any other time of the year.

Third, you should also consider having friends or family members capture the special moments in your wedding. When the celebration is over, you can print them yourself or even use a photo editing software to make the pictures even more dramatic and pretty.
