A full-color reference to planning for and executing a successful wedding day shoot Wedding photography has become a major industry, and the number of photographers getting into this field is rapidly increasing - making it even more competitive. Written by top wedding photographer, Kenny Kim, this full-color reference walks you through all the major (and minor) steps involved in planning and organizing a successful wedding day shoot.
As the title implies, this book is more about planning a wedding photo shoot than anything else, and that’s where it has it’s primary value.
Kenny admits to being relatively young in the wedding business. I appreciate the fact that he doesn’t try to come off like someone with more experience than he actually has.
Where his experience can benefit readers most is simple. If they plan to go into the wedding photography business, this book will absolutely take much of the guesswork out of the equation when it comes to things like knowing what to do when you run into an awkward situation, shot lists, work flow, networking opportunities, etc.
It’s very checklist oriented and when you’re starting out, checklists are a good failsafe to keep you on track and on target. Kenny (like all of us who have done this work) has probably made most of the mistakes you’d make, so his lists will help you see where to avoid pitfalls that could mess up your next bride’s big day.
The book is basic and provides the viewpoint of a fairly traditional shooter. I happen to think both of those are good things. It’s important to learn the basics before you step out and try to create the next new great photographic vision. That said, if you’re not new to wedding photography, it’s doubtful this book will help you.
Kenny is an affable guy. His writing style is conversational and entertaining. His passion for his work shows through the book and it’s very engaging. Who says reading for education can’t be fun? If you’re looking for a primer on starting a wedding business or getting one off the ground, invest in this book.
Kenny’s book is a good companion to Dane Sanders’ Fast Track Photographer. Get both and you’re well on your way to success. I’d also advise adding one more book to this pair to complete the knowledge you need to get your start in the wedding business.
