New to wedding and portrait photography

I am new to wedding and portrait photography but love to capture and make memories of each important photo and find draw out the beauty that lies within each and every heart. One of my fears is that due to wearing glasses I sometimes feel that my photos dont come out the way I want them to. Some with a little blurriness, but I still do try. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can keep my glasses on while making the image clear and producting great photos. If there is anything in photoshop that you can suggest on any program that I can purchase or instructions that you may have written down along the way to enhance each and every photo can you please share with me. I am not a quitter now do I plan on quitting. I just want to perfect and bring each and every photo to the full potential of telling a story. Thanks in advance.

Hey Liz,

Everything depends on what look you're trying to achieve but it sounds like it's a focus, shake, or aperture problem.

For a "blurry issue" I would suggest always using auto focus with your subject selected through the view finder and make sure your shutter speed is fast enough that if you're snapping pictures without a tripod you reduce hand shake. Other than that your images shouldn't be blurry.

Can you post a few examples with 3 basic settings listed?
aperture -
iso -
shutter -

Try to use the diopter adjustment near your viewfinder (without the glasses) turn that knob till you can see clearly. Regarding photoshop or Lightroom, just look to Youtube for all of the great instructional videos. PixImperfect is an awesome instructor. Prince Meyson, also. They have teaching styles that are easy to understand and they usually GIVE AWAY the actions in links so you can download them and start using them right away. How cool is that?
