Concentrate on the candid and incidental - tips for great photography

You may not take on the responsibility of being the official photographer at a friends wedding or function but they will love you for trying hard to capture the funny and possibly emotional moments from a friends point of view.


Those candid images of people that the professional might miss because they are off doing something 'important', or are simply not aware of the relationships that underpin the way people are acting with each other.



Also take pictures of the incidental details. This might be important if the photographer is only there for the 'formal' elements of the function.


Whatever you do put your best efforts into it because there is nothing like a bit of praise when people see your images 'pop' from the screen, or off the paper, for making you wanting to pick up your camera and take more photos! We all need encouragement.
