This is great!! Weddings are always tricky and getting everything in writing is helpful to ensure that both parties know what is expected of the other. I have all my brides/grooms sign one with all the shots and locations on it as well, I know things change on the day but I’m flexible, as long as they aren’t going overboard with changes. "

I am new at wedding photography, I still struggle on where to stand and take photos during the ceremony, any advise would be appreciated. I feel uncomfortable standing in the isle when they say their vows, I feel like I am going to take away from that moment, where do you stand, etc..

Great tips! Another: Remember to add a friendly clause about specific reimbursement liability.
Something like, “Although all care will be taken with the film, processed negatives, digital files, and photographs taken at the wedding, YourPhotoCo limits it’s liability for loss, total damage, or failure to deliver pictures for any reason to the return of all deposits made. In this unlikely event, XPhotoCo will refund all prepaid amounts, but will not accept liability for any other financial losses incurred by the contracting party including but not limited to: Tux rental, reception hall costs, catering, limo rental, etc.”
It just may save you from clients even thinking about it….

Make sure you put in that you need to be given a meal too. After 8 hours of working when the guests tuck in you need to sit down too.

Fantastic advice, have a wedding contract has got me out of some really sticky situations. Very often clients will try and pull a fast one. Good job and I have also bookmarked this site for future referencing.

good advice. I didn’t think to add the model release to my actual contract but that is brilliant!

There are many things that you can do yourself. In my mind a wedding photography contract is not one of them. WPPI had featured someone selling a professional photographer contract for $50. Pay the $50 and then take it to a lawyer in your state to review. You hope it is never needed, but you can’t play it too safe.
