You're looking around various websites for a wedding photographer and each one tells you what style of photography they shoot. Great, right? But what does it all mean? Well, let us set the record straight for you right now. Here are the styles of photography offered by photographers and a description of what they mean...
Traditional: The photographer works solely from a
pre-determined "shot list" of images requested by the
bride and groom. The list generally includes posed
shots, as well as, candid images taken at
pre-arranged events (i.e., bride and groom cutting the
cake).
- Photojournalism: The photographer moves through
the wedding capturing special moments as he or she
finds them. Generally, the photographer does not use
an established list of shots.
- Creative: Photographers place the subjects in
certain settings to take advantage of good lighting or
beautiful backgrounds. Once the scene is set, the
couple and their party are free to be themselves,
resulting in a more spontaneous feel. Unlike the
photojournalism style, creative photography takes
advantage of the photographer's artistic judgment
rather than simply capturing a series of moments.
- Fine Art: Photographers blend a specific art form
(such as Surrealism) with actual images, candid or
prearranged, from the wedding.
