Being Harry Potter, I'm sure you will have some magical skill that will finish up the job in a flash. *just kidding*

someone ever share with me the light speed post process and touch up tips...
use photoshop do a batch processing in the fellow steps.
#1 auto level
#2 auto color
#3 auto contrast
#4 duplicate layer
#5 apply gaussian blur 10 on top layer
#6 set opacity 20~40% for the top layer
#7 flatten layers and save

those photographers can shoot 20 weddings in a month, this is how the way they work, but as far as I know, none of these volume shooters do post process or touch up on photos, just simply cut a CD and send for print.

as for shooting part, day time use f5.6, 1/125s, ISO 200, omni bounce.
night time use f5.6, 1/60s, ISO 800, direct flash.
every key moment, all subjects must look at the camera and smile, just take one shot, only family group photo take two shots,
check your focusing and exposure before you shoot,
do not shoot unnecessary subjects, moments, so you need not spend to much time go thru all the shots.
use soft filter during outdoor shoot or close up head shots
shot everything in chronological order, so very fast to slot photos into album

in short, it is still very much like shooting in the same way during the good old film day that many still charging $480 for 8 rolls.

btw, shoot in medium file, cos only print on 4R, and everything can go into one CD.

Benjamin,

FREE AD course? You've covered enough for inexperienced PGs to start shooting. Great stuff!
