I'm usually a 2nd shooter at wedding and am about to shoot my first on my own. I've just been pondering what to do with the following...

Should I be at the front of the church for the entrance and snap the bride and father walking down the aisle towards me or shot from the back and then work my way to the front?

I'd be inclined to shoot from the front and then the from the back whilst they leave?

Any thoughts or tips would be very helpful.

Cheers,

Devs.

Bride and Father walking down the aisle towards the groom (groom in foreground of shot) is a must have shot (certainly in the uk anyway) then bride and groom exiting together is also a must have shot so its easy to decide where to position yourself if theres only one of you...... at the front for the father and bride entrance then at the back for the groom and bride exit.

I'm always near the front of the aisle so I get their faces.

Full length of Bride and Dad walking toward you, then turn around and get dad giving her away to the Groom. Those are "must haves".

Good Luck !

Only ONE shot? Easy for me, it's THE kiss. That's the one.
