Hi everyone!!

I'm photographing my cousins wedding on Friday and I could use some advice and helpful tips if you have them. I've been into photography for 5 years now however it is still a hobby. I've done a few shoots with friends and family but never a wedding. Any helpful advice?

Please and thank you :-)

    Hi, I'm not a photographer (other than as a hobby) but had the following thoughts....

    1) ask them for any particular people/group shots they want in advance, take a list with you so you know you've got that high school/book group/aunts on the groom's side shot before people leave
    2) check, check and check your equipment before you go. Pack spare batteries, memory cards, lenses, flash, etc
    3) if possible, get some shots of the venue before anyone gets there
    4) get some pictures of the cake before it's eaten!

    I'm sure some pro's will be along any minute with the proper advice lol

    Enjoy the day! :)

    I am NOT a photographer... But I would Scour Pinterest for ideas for different shots for the wedding Party, Groom, Bride, etc so you have some idea's going in to the wedding to play with in your head.

    Good Luck!
