"Hi! Hesam, nice to meet you. I like some of your photos, beautiful and impressive on color tone with black and white.

Which lens(s)?
I'm very new in event photography. I've only done two weddings, and I have two upcoming. I've switched my main camera over to Canon and been looking into lenses. I hear the 24-70mm 2.8 is a favorite for wedding photographers. I currently own a 50mm and a telephoto, so I need a wide angle lens, but I also need something that gives me flexibility. I looked into the 24-70mm but its really pricey. Can anyone help me? What are the must have lenses in shooting a wedding? I'm a little lost and don't want to spend lots of money if not needed. :) Thanks a lot. Any advise is greatly appreciated!

Hi Nina,
- if you have already shot two weddings and as you say you have two upcoming events i would have thought you would have studied every aspect of shooting weddings and researched which focal lengths work best on the day?
The 'reality check' is that it is normal to have both a back up camera and lenses in case of damage or failure so quite an initial outlay.
The usual for 'Full Frame' Nikon shooters would be the 24-70mm 2.8 / 70-200mm VRII and the 50mm 1.4, we also used the the 85mm 1.4
There are many very good Wedding Photography forums populated by working professionals online where you can research more rapidly and thoroughly than a social site.
