Second Camera Wedding Coverage
We have been on the fence with this topic for quite some time. Right here in our own studio we have been divided on the question “Do clients really need a second photographer”? In truth the answer is both yes and no. We here at Studio Cabral have trained ourselves to be THE only photographer at the event. We just learned that way, it may be an old school approach but it works. Well, so does having another photographer at an event. As long as both are on the same page and have each other’s back.
When done right the exact same moment will look different through a different set of eyes. While communicating through out a shoot the two photographers can capture multiple images of moments that once put together show the story in greater detail. That is the essence of photography, you want to tell a story without saying any words. With a second camera covering an event there are just more ways of saying it.
In regards to weddings it really depends on the actual client. Many believe that the more is definitely the merrier. Where there are those who feel they would like their ceremony or reception to remain more intimate. But that’s why there is chocolate and vanilla, we love choices. Below we have a few images captured at a recent wedding ceremony that show a great example of a second photographer coverage. Having a second photography is an advantage if there are multiple levels to work with, as you can see.
