Learn About The Latest Wedding Photography Styles

By Sharron Worboys


Weddings have always been an especially private event, but in recent times couples have grown ever more competitive when it comes to having a wedding that's really unique. There are such a lot of new trends emerging that it is a rare find to see a normal wedding nowadays. Even wedding photography comes with its own set of trends these days.

Gone are the days of formal portrait shots from a pre-arranged list of family mixes. The very latest in photography trends all highlight a desire to move away from conventional posed portraits.

One of the primary trends used by wedding photographers currently is photojournalism. This style of photography has the benefit of permitting the wedding day to flow naturally rather than being bound by a schedule. Instead of actively participating and posing shots, the cameraman plays the role of an observer, simply capturing events honestly as they unfold. This may end up in gorgeous, natural pictures. Nevertheless there's the risk of missing those key moments, especially if the professional shooter is green in photojournalistic shooting.

The fear of missing key moments for example the first kiss, the cake cutting or the 1st dance can be overwhelmed by choosing to blend photojournalistic style with some standard shots. This may simply be achieved by organizing with the shutter-bug beforehand which shots you definitely must have. The photographer can then pose those particular shots, then take a relaxed approach to the remainder of the day.

While photojournalistic photographs can produce reasonably dramatic effect, some styles of wedding call for a far more relaxed approach to photography. Creative candid photography is starting to become very popular for beach, garden and destination weddings. This sort of style is achieved when the paparazzo makes an effort to set up particular shots, but doesn't force the posing generally associated with traditional photography.
