Wedding Photography Contract – What Every Engaged Couple Should Know

Just in case you did not have enough to worry about when you are planning your wedding, we decided to give you some helpful tips to help you with your wedding photography contract. These tips should help you in determining all of the information that you feel is essential and making sure it is included in the final signed contract.


Here is an outline of what should be in your wedding photography contract:

The price for the services.
The amount of money you put down as well as any payments that are to be made before the wedding.
Where the wedding will be, the reception and any other locations you would like pictures to be taken.
The date and time of the wedding as well as the time you expect the photographer to be with the bride and the groom.
Any pictures that are “must haves” for you.
Any and all special instructions that you and the photographer have agreed on should also be clearly stated with in the contract.
Contracts are meant to protect both the professional and the customer equally. By making sure you carefully read the wedding photography contract before signing it you can be saving yourself a lot of unnecessary headaches.

In the event there are any changes made to the wedding photography contract you should immediately notify the photographer and schedule an appointment to initial the modifications. It is important that you and the photography company both have updated contracts with signatures and initials. If anything is unclear in the contract, be sure you have the directions or whatever clarified in the contract before signing it. This way, all of you are on the same page.

About 2 weeks before your big day you should schedule an appointment with the photographer to go over the contract one final time. This way you can be sure the photographer is very clear on your needs and demands.

Also, this is a good time for you to give an updated list of “must have” pictures for your wedding day. Confirm everything with the photographer and if possible make the final payment to the photographer. This will leave you with one less thing to stress over on your special day.

Once you have confirmed and clarified everything one last time on your wedding photography contract it is time for you to relax. Your wedding is literally just around the corner now. Don’t let anything bother you. Simply focus on you and your future with your honey.

Camera Lens F-Stop Values Explained

Lens aperture settings are commonly knows as f-stops. The letter "f" is an abbreviation of the term "focal-ratio", which describes the ratio of the lens's focal length to the diameter of the light entrance pupil (more commonly called the aperture). The standard sequence of f-stops is: f/1.4 f/2 f/2.8 f/4 f/5.6 f/8 f/11 f/16 f/22 On this scale, an f/1.4 setting is the largest aperture, while f/22 is the smallest, and each f-stop in the sequence is half the size of its neighbour to the left, and twice the size of its neighbour to the right. In other words, f/5.6 permits the passage of twice as much light as f/8, but only half the light of f/4. Low f-stop numbers represent larger apertures, and higher f-stop numbers indicate smaller apertures because the f-stop is a ratio is between the size of the aperture and the focal length of the lens; i.e. a bigger number represents a larger difference. Here's the maths for a 50mm lens. f-stop / Diameter (...
