Wedding Photography Has a Style for You!

By Michael J

Have you ever thought about what style of wedding photography you want in your album?

Sometimes pictures are like art. A picture might make you reflect on your life and your experiences. Likewise, you might also use art to decorate your home and office. These are the things that would make you a perfect candidate for photojournalistic type of photography. You should find someone who will shoot with your tastes in mind.

Look Through Books and Magazines to Find Your Artistic Side. Look for a Photographer Who Emulates Your Synergy.

Gather the photography that you like and show it to the professional that you want to hire. Take time to talk about the styles you like and dislike. Then really ask the photographers some hard hitting questions: NOTE - You want to ask questions to get a sense of whether that photographer is really listening to you!

Ask the photographer to analyze your face to see if he/she would know how to achieve the most flattering images of you. Considering my facial features and physical attribute, what angles of my face would you consider to be better than others?

If your whole family complains about having pictures taken, or if they feel uncomfortable in front of a camera, what ideas do you have to make the photo session less painful for them?

I always blink, so how are you going to get good pictures of me with my eyes open?

Keep in mind that wedding photographers have their own style. Their imagination and artistic sense of what looks good will be transferred to your wedding photos. Many photographers see the world around them as something to be documented and therefore use a documentary-style, while others prefer the rigor of setting up each shot ahead of time. A few really good photographers have both senses and and that's the perfect person. One more thing to think about is that the word photojournalism is often misused and misunderstood. The term almost doesn't have a valuable meaning any more; for most, it's just something meaning that the photographer doesn't have to pose all of his shots. - 16890
