That said, we have decided to feature two different lenses that will mount directly to your d750 and offer some excellent wedding photographs. Each lens has its own strengths and specializes in its own photography style that we will be covering throughout the article.

The Nikon 28-70mm f/2.8D ED-IF AF-S

The strongest contender for the title of best lens for wedding photography for a Nikon d750 camera is probably the Nikon 28-70mm f/2.8D ED-IF AF-S (Click here to check for product prices and availability). The focal length of the lens is perfect for wedding photography and the build quality, performance, and additional functionality make it the obvious choice for any budding wedding photographer. Over the years a number of professional wedding photographers have chosen the Nikon 28-70mm as their lens of choice and posted their own reviews (click here to read some of them) online sharing their thoughts on the lens.

Being a 28-70mm zoom lens it allows you to use your Nikon d750 to capture a whole range of photographs that are commonly required for wedding photography. The lower end of the zoom is ideal for capturing the subject of your photograph as well as the background or for capturing photographs of groups of people. Moving up to the middle zoom range of the lens allows you to capture some beautiful portraits with an excellent image quality of the guests of the wedding and finally, the higher zoom levels are ideal for picking up highly details photographs like photographs of the rings or of the seating placements.

The manual zoom and manual focus rings on the lens are also very easy to use helping to tweak your image to perfection before choosing to capture the photograph. Both rings have a different texture to the main body of the lens making it easy to quickly locate them while still focusing your eyes on your viewfinder while tweaking your image. Additionally, they are both very smooth to turn yet have a little resistance on them to help prevent you from accidentally over rotating.

Another great feature of the lens that makes it ideal for wedding photography is its low light performance. As many churches have poor lighting and many wedding reception venues also have poor light the Nikon 28-70mm allows you to easily keep capturing photographs with excellent image quality without lighting conditions becoming a hindrance. All of this makes it the obvious choice and we feel the lens will be a great choice for our readers.

The Nikon 70-200mm f/2.8G ED-IF AF-S VR

Another excellent contender for the title of the best lens for wedding photography for Nikon d750 cameras is definitely the Nikon 70-200mm f/2.8G ED-IF AF-S VR (Click here to check for product prices and availability). Its massive telephoto zoom lens capability allows you to hide on the outer ring of the wedding celebrations while zooming right in on your subject without them knowing you are capturing their photograph offering some of the most natural photographs possible. More and more brides seem to be opting for this style of photography of their big day as the more natural photographs tend to capture the spirit of the day in a much more authentic way rather than posed photographs.

The Nikon 70-200mm has an excellent build quality that makes the lens very easy to use while also keeping it as robust as possible. Just like the Nikon 28-70mm covered above, both the manual zoom and manual focus rings on the lens are excellent allowing you to easily perfect your image before choosing to capture it. The functionality of the lens is solid to allowing you to use it in a number of situations common to a wedding although it offers no real wide angle capability so the Nikon 70-200mm will make a better secondary lens in our opinion rather than a primary when it comes to wedding photography. Additionally, the low light performance of the lens is excellent offering some great image quality no matter the lighting conditions of the venue.

If you prefer the style of standing on the edges of the wedding and essentially sniping your photographs or if you need to add a lens to your camera accessories to fill this niche then the Nikon 70-200mm is the lens for you. It will mount directly to your Nikon d750 camera body quickly allowing you to hot swap between lenses on the fly as you require throughout the day too.
