Traditional / Classical Wedding Photography

Traditional Wedding Photography

This style of wedding photography is structured and consists mainly of poses.  The main advantage of this method is that a predefined photo list will be followed to ensure all the images you want are captured. The quality of photographs will be dependent on your photographer's experience with organizing small and large groups of people for these images.

Photojournalistic / Candid Wedding Photography

Photojournalistic Wedding PhotographyPhotojournalistic photography has become popular in recent years.  It hinges on the photographer's ability to capture a collection of candid images to tell the story of the entire day.  Photojournalistic wedding photography allows the bride and groom to spend more time with their guests, and less time posing for the camera.  Generally a photo list is not used, and as a result some combination of guests may not be captured.  The quality of your photographs will be highly dependent on the skill of your photographer.  Unpredictable lighting conditions and tricky timing requires consummate skill and a steady hand.
