One of the latest trends to sweep the nation is the practice is having a zombie wedding. This is sort of like a traditional wedding – only a lot gorier and a lot more interesting for the spectators. But, like with any wedding, they will want pictures. Digital wedding photography is a lot like traditional wedding photography – but you need a strong stomach and a sense of humor.

Low Light Is All Right

Don't ask for more light to be brought to a zombie wedding. Although there might be an occasion where you can snap the happy and decomposing couple in a brightly lit room, the rest of the ceremony will be as creepy as possible. This means that this will be dark to low lighting. With digital wedding photography, you must be prepared for this contingency.

Most likely, you will need a flash and some reflective paper in order to bounce enough of the low light to the back of your camera. If this sounds entirely gibberish, then you need to learn digital photography from books, online courses or websites. You can also go online digital wedding photography forums in order to ask very specific questions. Joining such a forum should be free.

Low Expectations Are Also All Right

The chances are really high that the couple of the zombie wedding will not expect a very high standard of digital wedding photography as compared to traditional wedding photography. However, you will still be expected to get reasonably clear and interesting images that captures the essence (if not the aroma) of the event. You may be asked to be sure to get a particular profile, because that's where the creepy maggot-ridden scar makeup job is.

Album Presentation

Your zombie wedding couple might prefer to have a CD-ROM of their wedding album than a traditional album. Be sure to get this straight beforehand. You will have a lot less work with your digital wedding photography putting it into a CD-ROM than putting it into a traditional album.

You also don’t want to use the sentimental special effects used in digital wedding photography. No soft-focus shots, no oval fuzzy frames around the images (no unless they're cobwebs) and for God' sake, no cherubs (unless they're skeletons). You can even show the original digital wedding photography stills in order to help the happy couple select a proper wedding album. You might not recognize the couple when out of their zombie garb, but they will be just as proud of their zombie wedding as a June bride would be at a white wedding.
