Instructions from the Expert:

I will not spend time answering questions which require a lengthy teaching or explanation the questioner can easily get from reading a book, through hands on training or through practical use of their own camera gear and reading their owner's manuals.  This is especially true of questions sent to me as "private". If questions sent to me as private, there is less chance I will take time to answer. I will not answer questions which I have already answered before.

Going to photography seminars and reading all the wedding photography books I can find then applying the techniques and new styles I've learned with each wedding. You always need to grow and learn to keep up in this field. With each new wedding you photograph, you must challenge yourself to do better work than your previous wedding. You must always have the goal of making the wedding photographs for a bride & groom be the best photographs they have seen of any wedding.
