Wedding photographer is a photographer that focuses on shooting pictures for wedding only, in Nigeria, weddings are special events and I think that's how it is in most cultures around the world, there are a lot shoots involved during a wedding, pre wedding shots, wedding shots and post wedding shots, pictures are memories, they are cherished by most.
To start up a wedding photographer you need equipments like camera, lightning and photo studio, this can cost you at first but they're one off expenses and also it's an investment that will yield a good reward in the future or you can start up as an apprentice and work your up from there.
As a wedding photographer it's very recommendable to have a good social presence like on Instagram that deals with visuals, you can manage it your self or hire someone to manage it for you and most of your prospects might meet you through social network, it's a viable option for marketing.
Initially getting clients can be hard so, I'll recommend pairing up with an already established event planner, maybe on a commission based, before you start getting your own clients.
Wedding photography can also be combined with video and event planning also.
