Marriage equality is a hot topic these days and as more and more countries embrace marriage equality, a whole new market of wedding photography is emerging. Steven has photographed over 80 same-sex weddings and he shares his observations and tips for attracting and working with gay couples to photograph their wedding day.

  1. Hi,

    Thanks for your great answer to my question:

    “I sometimes get asked brides and mothers of the bride whether I can airbrush them thinner, or something along those lines.
    I can do this, but I think what they’re really saying is they’re not confident in the way they look.
    I’ve been photographing weddings for five years, but still get caught off-guard by this question.
    Do you have any advice?”

    I’ve not used the liquify tool for a few years – I think it can be too time consuming and even a little insulting – and agree the best approach is to make photographs as flattering as possible using posing and lighting.

    I’ve used the sometimes glib sounding response, ‘you don’t need photoshop’, but I think Bryan’s suggestion of explicitly saying that I’ll use posing and lighting to best effect is much better.

    Cheers,

    Tom
