How to Shoot a Wedding - Ceremony - Wedding Photography Tutorial Series 

I can't wait for you to go more in depth about the equipment , especially the strobes. Nice tips a few i've never thought about!

can't wait for the rest of the wedding photography series :)

That's a great idea of bringing pictures of the bride and groom with the photographers in the background I will definitely do that. I had to crop him out of several pics. thank you

great info, Jib. I can't wait to see the getting ready part for both brides and grooms

I absolutely loved this tutorial, not to brag but you've made me realize I'm in the right path, I don't own professional gear whatsoever but I'm glad I'm on the same page as of where to stand or what kind of shots to look for. If on the upcoming videos you can comment maybe making a list of do's and don't's it'd be GREAT! keep up the tutorials coming I LOVE them!

Nice video. I've been shooting weddings for about 4 years, and I was agreeing with just about every topic you brought up.

Great video. Thank you for making it! Very helpful.

Great tutorial really helpful I like your detail shots and the way you mix it as a story.

Thank you for this! It has been so helpful. I am shooting my first wedding in September and have no idea what to expect! I'm going to watch more of your videos!

Thank you so much for this! My first wedding in August. This is very helpful!

Hey Jib. Excellent work as always. Is it just me or its with everyone, I like the B&W pics to be better than the coloured ones, i mean they make more of an impact and get the WOW factor. And btw your B&W pics are just awesome, i mean i have tried so many time converting my pics to B&W but they are no way near to the ones that you put out. Once again, excellent work and please keep them coming!!

Thanks for the info. Helps relax me about this sort of intimidating situation. I would like to shoot some weddings within a year. God work!

Great tutorial! Very helpful! Awesome job!

this is so useful thanks for the tips.

Simple tips but always very helpful Keep it coming!

This was a huge help as someone who has an upcoming first wedding! Thank you

Awsome video thanks! I'm shooting a friends wedding for first time . This video helps so much!!

First Wedding ever is coming up in September, and I am trying to study up so I can get a grasp on how do do this!! Great tutorial, thank you!

I would like to say thank you for sharing your experience... Ive got the ideas thank you for your wedding tips and tutorials.... more power to you....

Great, helpful video. Also, I know you're saying ceremony but I love how it sounds like you're combining sermon and ceremony into sermony.

Always good stuff man.

I have a wedding to shoot soon in a church very much like this one and I must say I feel like your video helps a lot. Thank you very much for sharing.

enjoyed the video did a wedding two years ago, my first. Got a lot of the important shots. But now can better situate myself after this video. I'm doing an outside wedding in two weeks I think this will help me get even better shots. Thank you i've watched a good bit of your videos and find them helpful.

THUMBS UP!!! STILL THE BEST TUTORIALS ON RU-vid! We who just watch and listen LEARN Negative people who criticizes everything, well? whats the point on staying on this channel? :)

i'd like to start doing weddings soon, i've shot a whole lot of studio stuff and some outdoors but i've never would've thought of using my strobe lights like the way you did, so thanks for the tip :)

I have my very first wedding booked for the end of next year. thank for this information.

Thanks for your videos. I've learned so much from you..

I love this one, I cannot wait for all of them to finish up the topics...my favorite thing to photograph as a friend who owns a camera...:0) take care, vera

I have a question. At 16:16 in the video you spoke about not using the strobes because the ceiling was dark. Could you have bounce the strobes by point the strobe at the wall? The wall seems to be light in color.

Really informative video with lots of helpful tips. Thank you for sharing your knowledge!

thanks for your videos, i have learned a lot!!

very helpful! great visuals

What lens did you use for the hand holding shots and how close where you?

I don't mind at all to hear your bubble man :) I won't go fast forward, I believe every word you say worth it.

Thanks buddy... really helpful and ignore all the negative comments and feedbacks ok? Respect and keep them coming :)

Thank you so much for the videos! Amateur over here that wants to learn :)) I have a Nikon D3100 with the stock lens. I want up grade my Lens but confused on what to buy. Also what flash do you recommend I should upgrade too? I want to take pictures of newborns, couples & kids and hopefully a wedding in the future. I just had a session with a newborn but was way to white & bright. What do you think i did wrong? I shot only in the aperture mode i think it was F4.

nice tips man ! apprecite them

What lens were you using for those ring shots and close ups of the details? Also was there a particular reason you chose to set up studio strobes opposed to using a speed light on your camera? I am guessing using the strobes allows you to move around and get a decent shot wherever you go? You would only set them up if the church or venue was really dark correct? Thanks in advance!

Hi, I like the way you explained in detail. I have 1 ? for, what kind of setting do you use in wedding or any events( setting means ISO, f point and shutter speed). Thank you

Well hopefully im not too restricted, I have my first church wedding next month and want to make it the best it can be. the vid was a great help tho, will cheak out some more of yours

Thank you, really helpful.

yep, you're right! Thumbs up!

Great video! 😊

Nice Job in this Tutorial From Mexico estate of Guerrero

Hi love your videos, What can you do when a wedding is at a church that is old and not very appealing? How can you still get some great shots? Would all the shots have to be close ups? Not sure what to do? Thanks for the videos they are very helpful.

at what circumstances do you not recommend using big high power studio strobes inside a church? i guess the walls have to be pretty bright so the flash light can bounce back.

Great video mate over in the uk in leeds they never let me use flash iso6400 for me :(

woooow, thanks man for super-fast reply. Actually I have a separate budget for sb-700(please comment if you think i shouldn't buy this one) and for the lens already I have one 18-105 NIKOR. again, you're fantastic :)

thanks for your wedding tutorials very interesting video. Regads Steve

very nice tutorial dear

Thanks and thumps up for your great videos. I have one question I'm sure you can help me :) I have used D80 for around 4 years and now it's dead :(. I want to buy a new DSLR body and my budget is around the price of D90 or D7000, which one do you recommend? I'm not a professional photographer!!!

Great video ...

Can you do a video on how to edit your images in Photoshop/LightRoom? How do you workflow so efficient, and finally how to your images look so professional? I have a 7D and 24-70mm L 1 and 2 and I can not get those images to look the way you make them look. I'm always shooting manually and I'm 99.9% sure I'm doing everything right on my Camera. Please help. Thanks.

nice, well explained..

Any tips. I'll be shooting my friends wedding, helping him out because he doesn't really have money and I been learning a lot from your videos I have D3100 with 18-55, 50mm 1.8, 70-300 vr. No speedlight. Might be able to borrow one but if I can't any help?

No problem man. I'm sorry please don't hate me ? I just like writing that i am a loyal subscriber. Nice video anyw.

Random question, but I'm just wondering.. What's a good setting for a concert? (dark, laser lights kinda of settings..) I use a D5100.

never mind I reread it and understood. I feel stupid now lol. Thanks for the help.

So do you have your strobes on during the entire ceremony? Also on the wide angle shots how do you manage to not get them in the shot?

Im soo scared to do my first wedding... August 4th. THANKS so much for these videos.

so. i cant afford current full frame at the moment. so i am building up my glass and when the D600 comes out i will upgrade. but i have been looking at the 24-70mm... what do you thing about that?

What about the settings?? Indoor light is usually a bit dark, do we raise the ISO ??

Friend of family wants me to shoot her wedding... IM NOT A WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER!!!. but this was soooo helpful

very informative...

Thanks Helpful

What batteries do you use with your speedlights ?

hey buddy, do you got video tutorials on editing ? currently working on my relatives Engagement pics. would really appreciate some tips from you !!

I have to shoot a wedding that will be taking place in a hall. However, the reception tables are staying for the ceremony as well. The room is rectangular and they are walking out through the door far towards the left, walking in between tables, cutting in front of a row of chairs that people will be sitting in and then down and "isle" that will be about eight steps if they're lucky. I don't even know where to get my shots at this point. And am I taking photos of the bridal party walking down? It's just the bridesmaids. The groomsmen will already be up there.

Are you from the Trenton Area?

I was just shooting a wedding and one of the groom's friends also was involved (taking shoots) but I was the main photographer and it felt like he was stepping on my toes the whole time. it was never discussed he was going to be there and it was really annoying - any advice?

hi, would you be able to help me out with some of pictures, if i send you links to my pictures, would you be able to use them on your channel to critique them, so that i can get my mistakes corrected....

Hey Jib, can we look forward to some tutorials on how to get such vintage style and different types of B&W pics. Would love to have a couple of those as well, Also i posted a pic on your facebook page's wall, can you please review it. Its my first public post and your opinion will really encourage me to move ahead, otherwise i am very nervous about posting any of my clicks online. Thanks in advance.

Some religions restrict you to where you can go & do. I did a wedding where you weren't allowed on the altar, nor were you allowed to take pictures when the priest were talk, then there was a church with poor lightening and we weren't allowed to use flash. Rme. So with all the restrictions its a little hard, so its important to have a second shooter at times.

What did you mean you "weren't allowed to move" at about 15:00? Were there too many people around or did they say you can't move? lol.

Good too...lol

You said you've done some weddings where you have to pick a spot and stay there. Why is that? The Church's rules?

Im staying in dubai.. Ok then... Thanks

Hi jib.. I cant see your facebook page, dont know what happened... Im just wondering if you blocked me or not..

don't you feel difficulty shooting ceremonies in manual mode ??....i mean you need to be quick otherwise you will be losing some greats and important shots.

So what happens if u do walk around and use a flash? surly not kick u out and create a scene and potentially ruin the wedding for the couple, its all about the couple and they are the ones that want the best shots the most, bullshit rule isn't it!
