if i want the sky in the background to be bluer

Or to shoot through the windows of a car to see the couple without reflection. Though the reality is that I usually do not take time to deal with it.

If I'm in a situation where most or all of the shots will benefit from it...and the loss of light won't hurt...then I'll use a polarizer.

For example: an outdoor wedding with nice blue skies, fluffy white clouds, a pond/lake & lots of green foliage. I'll use it for sure.

HERE are some shots on my blog, I'm pretty sure I used a polarizer on most/all of the outdoor shots.

Thanks.

It was a little of both

hmmm, have a polarizer. Almost never use it. Used it once in the last 70 or so weddings. heh heh.

I used to like it a lot. But I haven't been using it for the last 2 years I think.
