From the creators of Don’t Photograph Your Best Friend’s Wedding Without Reading This First and The Complete Guide To Getting Started As A Professional Wedding Photographer (Step By Step) comes 25 Inspiring Wedding Photos. If you find yourself in the situation of having to cover (irremediably) the wedding of your best friends or you have thought about launching yourself professionally, you cannot continue without being inspired. And I’m not referring to the one you find on flickr, which is often fine and some of these examples are from there, but you have to go through a lot, a lot of filtering and you can end up with sore eyes.
I mean beautiful, emotional, creative, original inspiration. It is true that there is now a very defined trend in terms of wedding photography that I personally love. It is a fashion that I hope will last a long time, because they are more emotional and spontaneous photographs, because I don’t know about you, but a few years ago it seemed like torture to see a wedding album (some of them still seem that way today) and, however, I am enthralled with these others.
That is why today I leave you with these images as inspiration, that does not imply that you have to copy, none of that, but it does imply that you have to load yourself with all this beauty and creativity. Will you take a walk with me? You won’t regret it 😉
adverse weather
Well no, not all weddings are in spring or with a blazing sun. Some take place in the coldest season of the year or are bathed by an untimely? rain. This does not imply that you have to take refuge and look for an interior to take the photos, but rather take advantage of the moment, the snow, the rain, the wind, they can give you unique and precious moments.
Complicity
In the past, marriages would be arranged, but today, when couples get married they do it for love, and that is reflected in every gesture, every look. A proper wedding report cannot ignore those moments, like these captured by Los Ruiz Producciones.
Insinuate
It is not always necessary to show everything to tell what is happening. Hint is elegant and subtle. An image that lets the viewer’s imagination work, where everyone can create their own story parallel to the real one, while the protagonists maintain their intimacy.
Emotion
I was recently moved by a photograph of a wedding. The funny thing is that the boyfriend didn’t even know him. It was the wedding of the daughter of an acquaintance with whom I happened to coincide just when she had just received the album and she showed it to me. It was a hug, from the groom and the mother of the bride. There was so much feeling and so much emotion in that image that even a tear escaped me and it is not something that happens to me very often and less if it is not people from my family or my closest friends. What I mean is that an emotional gesture is worth a thousand times more than a super-and-retouched-perched-in-the-most-beautiful-gardens-in-the-city. It is so. And if not, tell me after seeing these images.
Spontaneity
What I like most about this current trend is the spontaneity that is experienced in each report. There is a lot of life beyond the poses and the forced smiles of lovers.
backlit
Don’t be afraid to stand up to the sun. Observe the results of doing so. Surely you find your own way to capture a wonderful backlight.
Perspective Matter
I’ve ever seen a bride photographed from below and… the truth… it doesn’t look very good, ahem, ahem. Changing perspective is something wonderful and necessary in photography, but you have to know how to choose the angle well ;), as in these cases.
Details
Weddings are full of details that make a difference. Photographing them is to record the care with which the bride and groom have prepared the most important celebration of their lives, it is to tell what has happened and how in an elegant and subtle way.
Creativity
Who said that at a wedding you couldn’t be creative and experiment? Who does not risk does not win, we already know that the classic works. Do you want to try new things?
This one too It is another interesting case, I put the link because it has low resolution ;).
Windows
Did you know the power of windows in portrait photography? We are talking about him here. A great opportunity to use it.
Pets
And we cannot forget about them. They are part of the family, much more than some of those distant uncles who are invited by engagement and who come reluctantly. Why leave them off the album? The poor already have enough to stay out of the treat 😉
Fun moments
Some boyfriends (and guests) are the most jokers. Capture those spontaneous, happy and fun moments.
