What Color is your Wedding Photography Style?

Posted by patrick

What type of pictures do you want from your wedding photographer?

Is a picture like fine art to you? Does it move you to contemplate energy, or does it bore you? Do you decorate your home with beautiful paintings or artwork? If you don't, then don't feel pressured into paying for a photojournalistic style pro photographer, because the pictures will just go into a box underneath the bed. If you're an art buff and do value and enjoy artwork, then you should look for a photographer who will be able to match this desire to paint your love story, with vivid imagination and spontaneity.

Look at Books and other Written Material to Discover the Art Inside. Then find a professional that matches you.

To learn how the photographer you're talking with feels about photojournalistic photography, you might show him/her some magazines that you really like. Discuss the black and whites, view the close-ups and come up with a number or percentage of candid pictures that you want to receive in your wedding album. You can also test the photographer's knowledge by asking some of the following questions: Here are a few Questions to Stump Your Candidate and Really Put them to the Test!

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 a group of people is grumpy about having their picture take, how would he make them comfortable?

Have you noticed any expressions or mannerisms of mine that you might want to try to capture or avoid?

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.
