Although winter is not the ideal time for wedding and engagement photos for some couples, I had the luck of getting some wonderful people who not only wanted a winter wonderland look, but also got it. Weather actually worked in their favor.  These are just some of my favorite photos and I’d like to thank all the couples for putting up with the cold for these unique photos.

Here Are Some Great Ideas For Photography!

Learn all about your camera to get the most out of it. Make sure that you take some time to study your particular camera.

Be careful of using digital zoom features rather than optical zoom when getting close-up shots. While many cameras have a wide zoom range, the image quality will be degraded when it switches to digital mode. Digital mode interpolates pixels and adds them to the image, resulting in decreased image quality. Check your camera manual to find out how to disable this feature in your particular model.

If you plan to take photos that include more than one person, advise everyone in the group on choosing the proper clothing. This holds true whether you are dealing with a family, a large group or a couple. It’s not necessary for them to wear colors that match exactly, but it will look much better in the final picture if they are wearing complementary hues. You should get them to wear warm or neutral colors, this will good with all backgrounds. If you are considering a more festive, brightly colored setting, advise the subjects to balance colored tops with black bottoms. This ensures that the various colors do not compete for the viewer’s attention.

Never let yourself miss out on a wonderful picture because you were busy messing with your settings. Do not use preset settings or your camera will use default adjustments. Learn all of your options, and choose a setting that will let you change up the elements that you want control over.

To reiterate, photography appeals to a lot of people as a casual pursuit. However, many people are intimidated by the amount of technical gadgets and accessories that are used by professional photographers.
