[QUOTE="Eye-level, post: 91319, member: 6548"] If you are game and up to the challenge I say go for it. You may try posting an ad in your local newspaper offering your services. You might attend some wedding convention type events and hand out some cards. Just remember people are going to want to see your portfolio so it needs to be designed with wedding type photography in mind...lots of portraits. In my mind probably the greatest challenge in a wedding shot would be to get the exposure right and not blow out the dress. Typically you have a groom in black and a bride in white. That is really hard to do because of the stark contrast. You need big time dynamic range and you have to know your way around PP in order to deal with just that one type of shot successfully. In reference to your post above concerts may be a one chance deal but if you miss then oh well. Weddings are a one time deal and if you miss it is going to be an entirely different thing. Miss it one time and your wedding photography career is over. [/QUOTE]
