However, in the early days of photography, most couples of more humble means did not hire a photographer to record the actual wedding itself. Until the latter half of the 19th century, most people didn't pose for formal wedding photos during the wedding. Rather, they might have posed for a formal photo in their best clothes before or after a wedding. In the late 1860s, more couples started posing in their wedding clothes or sometimes hired a photographer to come to the wedding venue. <i>(<a href="/wiki/White_wedding#Gallery" title="White wedding">See the gallery at White wedding</a>.)</i> </p> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Wedding_Parliament_of_Bangladesh.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/85/Wedding_Parliament_of_Bangladesh.jpg/220px-Wedding_Parliament_of_Bangladesh.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="147" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/85/Wedding_Parliament_of_Bangladesh.jpg/330px-Wedding_Parliament_of_Bangladesh.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/85/Wedding_Parliament_of_Bangladesh.jpg/440px-Wedding_Parliament_of_Bangladesh.jpg 2x" data-file-width="3000" data-file-height="2000" /></a><figcaption>A couple is taking photographs after their wedding ceremony wearing wedding dress in front of the parliament building of Bangladesh</figcaption></figure> <p>Due to the nature of the bulky equipment and lighting issues, wedding photography was largely a studio practice for most of the late 19th century. Over time, technology improved, but many couples still might have only posed for a single wedding portrait. Wedding albums started becoming more commonplace in the 1880s, and the photographer would sometimes include the wedding party in the photographs. Often, the wedding gifts would be laid out and recorded in the photographs as well. </p> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Unidentified_wedding,_Northern_Ontario_(I0002402).tif" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/ce/Unidentified_wedding%2C_Northern_Ontario_%28I0002402%29.tif/lossy-page1-220px-Unidentified_wedding%2C_Northern_Ontario_%28I0002402%29.tif.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="159" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/ce/Unidentified_wedding%2C_Northern_Ontario_%28I0002402%29.tif/lossy-page1-330px-Unidentified_wedding%2C_Northern_Ontario_%28I0002402%29.tif.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/ce/Unidentified_wedding%2C_Northern_Ontario_%28I0002402%29.tif/lossy-page1-440px-Unidentified_wedding%2C_Northern_Ontario_%28I0002402%29.tif.jpg 2x" data-file-width="6989" data-file-height="5056" /></a><figcaption>Wedding party photo from the <a href="/wiki/Rainy_River_District" title="Rainy River District">Rainy River District</a>, ca. 1905.</figcaption></figure> <figure class="mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Wedding._Louise_Fairbairn_BAnQ_P48S1P12641.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/22/Wedding._Louise_Fairbairn_BAnQ_P48S1P12641.jpg/200px-Wedding._Louise_Fairbairn_BAnQ_P48S1P12641.jpg" decoding="async" width="200" height="149" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/22/Wedding._Louise_Fairbairn_BAnQ_P48S1P12641.jpg/300px-Wedding._Louise_Fairbairn_BAnQ_P48S1P12641.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/22/Wedding._Louise_Fairbairn_BAnQ_P48S1P12641.jpg/400px-Wedding._Louise_Fairbairn_BAnQ_P48S1P12641.jpg 2x" data-file-width="960" data-file-height="715" /></a><figcaption>A newlywed couple standing in front of a church and their wedding photographer, <a href="/wiki/Westmount" title="Westmount">Westmount</a>, <a href="/wiki/Montreal" title="Montreal">Montreal</a>, 1945</figcaption></figure> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Wedding_Photograph.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b3/Wedding_Photograph.jpg/220px-Wedding_Photograph.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="338" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b3/Wedding_Photograph.jpg/330px-Wedding_Photograph.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b3/Wedding_Photograph.jpg/440px-Wedding_Photograph.jpg 2x" data-file-width="2262" data-file-height="3478" /></a><figcaption>1907 Wedding Photograph</figcaption></figure> <p>At the beginning of the 20th century, color photography became available, but was still unreliable and expensive, so most wedding photography was still practiced in black and white. The concept of capturing the wedding "event" came about after the Second World War. Using film roll technology and improved lighting techniques available with the invention of the compact <a href="/wiki/Flash_bulb" class="mw-redirect" title="Flash bulb">flash bulb</a>, photographers would often show up at a wedding and try to sell the photos later.

Albums may be included as part of a pre-purchased package, or they may be added as an after-wedding purchase. Not all photographers provide albums; some may prefer to provide prints and/or files and let clients make their own albums. </p><p>Most photographers allow clients to purchase additional prints for themselves or their families. Many photographers now provide online sales either through galleries located on their own websites or through partnerships with other vendors. Those vendors typically host the images and provide the back-end sales mechanism for the photographer; the photographer sets his or her own prices and the vendor takes a commission or charges a flat fee. </p><p>Some photographers also include high-resolution photograph files in their packages. These photographers allow their clients limited rights to reproduce the images for their personal use while retaining the copyright. Not all photographers release files and those who do will most likely charge a premium for them, since releasing files sometimes means giving up any after wedding print or album sales for the most part. In the cases where photographers release high-resolution images they are usually supplied on CD, DVD or USB Stick however, this depends on the individual companies, and it's recommended the client(s) checks what is included with the photographers wedding photography package before signing any contracts. </p><p>The owner of the pictures' copyright is often explicitly stated in the contract for photographic services.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Without such an explicit statement, the owner of the pictures' copyright will depend on the country involved as copyright laws vary from country to country. Photographers who do not retain the copyright of the images often charge more for their services. In these cases, the photographer provides the client with digital images as part of the wedding package. The client then has unrestricted use of the images and can print any that they may desire. Similarly, there are some photographers that offer joint copyrights of the digital images so they can also have unrestricted use of the images for reasons such as advertising. </p><p>Types of photos requested may be "first look" where the bride and groom see each other before the ceremony for first reaction photos rather than first seeing each other as the brides walks down the aisle.

While pre-wedding meetings and post-wedding work take place in an office environment, the events themselves take photographers to indoor and outdoor venues such as homes, churches, hotels, parks, and other ceremony and reception sites. Likewise, the time of each wedding sets the work schedule, with weekends and evenings being common. The number of weddings occurring in the spring and summer months makes those seasons especially busy for photographers.

Photographers may be familiar with venues if they are shooting locally; but if they travel, everything is new. For example; a Tampa wedding photographer is used to shooting a beach wedding where the sun sets over the ocean. In Miami, the sun no longer sets over the ocean. When planning for a local wedding a photographer may often meet the couple over coffee or dinner, or handle their engagement shoot. These jump start the getting-to-know-you process and create client familiarity. Typically, a destination wedding does not afford those conveniences. </p> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Mt-hood-elopement-by-chris-brodell.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img alt="Bride and Groom with wedding officiant during elopement ceremony near Mt.
