Photo District News (PDN) is a well-respected magazine for professional photographers and I’ve always been a fan. I was honored recently that PDN wanted to pick my brain on destination wedding photography for their special Wedding and Events Issue. While most of the converstation and information I provided to the writer was integrated into the article rather than quoted directly, I still enjoyed sharing my knowledge and experience on destination weddings with the magazine for other professional photographers. I have been photographing destination weddings for a number of years and contrary to what some may believe, shooting a destination wedding is no holiday given the extra work and time involved. With international travel, there are also pitfalls that an inexperienced photographer may not be prepared for. While there are a few downsides from the photographer’s point of view, I still find it very rewarding to travel to various destinations around the world and help capture the special memories for each couple’s amazing wedding adventure.
