Photos after the Wedding Ceremony - Various types of scenarios included here, sometimes you have to take control to get the best photos you can
Some planning is involved immediately after the ceremony, as things can easily turn ugly. For example you could get left behind while everyone leaves the church, and you'd have to fight your way though the congregation missing important shots (yes it happened to me in an early wedding). The confetti could get thrown while you were photographing something else, or you could drag the couple away prematurely for some formal shots. These topics are covered in the following videos.
