Photographers who have worked in the same location before will be more comfortable with the camera exposure and angels. His idea of taking pictures in the floor will be more accurate. He will more aware of the dance floor, the seating arrangements, wedding place, light reflection etc. These experiences have a big impact on the overall product.
