When you are familiar with the printing process there will come a time when you will want to have more control over the result. This is where burning-in and dodging comes to assist you. This method can be used with both the wet printing process as well as dry i.e. your photo editing program. However, this article focuses on the wet process.
Budget wedding photography can be achieved by simply being honest with the photographer. Tell him or her how much you can spend on your photographer and see what you can figure out together. For example, if you are looking one of the packages that are slightly out of your price range but it is the package you really want, you could try to negotiate with the photographer.
Burning-in Burning-in refers to giving a selected area of a print more exposure than the overall exposure. This is generally performed after the overall exposure is made. This method requires an opaque mask with a hole through which the enlarger light may pass. The opaque material is up to you, but cardboard is mainly used as it is easy to cut to the required shape and size. Commonly a disc shape is used but it really doesn't matter, choose what is ideal for you. Another method used for burning-in is to simply cup your hands, shaped to cast a protective shadow over the rest of the print while image light passes through your cupped hands. An advantage to using your hands is that the burn hole is infinitely flexible in size. You burn in selected areas for a pre-determined amount of time.
Dodging Dodging the print describes holding back light from selections in the image for a portion of the overall print exposure. Your own hand is an extremely flexible tool, capable of assuming very intricate shapes. A dodging tool may also be cut from cardboard and can vary in shape and size; be as small as a 5c coin or as large as the print itself. Dodging tools are often made of circular or oval pieces of material taped or glued to handles of stiff wire. The handles should be long enough to easily reach the middle of the image; otherwise the shadow of your hand will appear at the edge of your print. With both dodging and burning-in, a constant motion is applied so as to bleed the differing exposures so the method is not obvious in the final result. If this is not done, hard edges will become obvious between the differently exposed areas. This is an instant give away to sloppy dodging or burning.
Lastly, determine how you will deliver the pictures. If the client wants just the pictures in bulk, have a decorated box to put them in. If they want an album book, ask them want kind of design do they want and what size they want. Again, this will be up to you on how you want it delivered.
The style you choose for your wedding pictures should not be a weighing factor in the price of them. For example, if you prefer to have an artistic style photography for your wedding, do not allow the photographer to talk you into traditional style photography in order for you to be able to have your budget wedding photography done. Some compromise is going to be necessary when you are trying to get your pictures for a smaller amount of money, but don't be willing to sacrifice your overall needs and wants.
