Wedding Photography: new trends

By: John Eva

The field of wedding photography continues to change as the years go by, and more and more wedding photographers have to employ their creative talents and expertise to produce exceptional results with their photographs.

Long gone are those days when wedding photography was simply about basic rigid posses that had little or no feel to them, were void of any emotion or feeling of joy, and told no story about the day. It is interesting to note that these types of wedding photography still exist today and accounts for a large enough sector in the wedding industry. There are still many persons who prefer the more traditional style of photographs and many wedding photographers do concentrate on this segment only.

In recent times couples getting married are asking for much more from their wedding photographer and the resulting wedding photographs. They all want a contemporary feel to their wedding and will insist on it.

One of the more popular trends is wedding photojournalism, which has been gaining interest for well over fifteen years. With wedding photojournalism many of the moments and events of the wedding is captured by the photographer without any input or direction from him or her. Thus the pictures are as natural as they can be, and therefore tend to capture the aura of the special day. In some cases all the photos of the wedding are done in a wedding photojournalism manner, hence no posing of any kind will be seen in the resulting pictures.

Another wedding photography trend that is rapidly becoming popular is the mixture of the traditional and journalistic approaches. Here the wedding photographers will concentrate on getting as many pictures of the wedding day in a photo journalistic manner and also do a session where formal poses are done. These formal poses will normally involve the couple, their family and their friends.

One of the more recent directions in wedding photography is the adding of a bit of fashion to the picture. This trend seems to have had its advent in fashion magazines that cater to high-end customers and many wedding magazines. Many wedding photographers have used these fashion trends to offer couples unique and creative ways of doing their photographs. With fashion wedding photographs the photographers main goal is to bring out the couples beauty, and add a bit of glamour to their captured interactions. Couples who take advantage of this approach are made to look like celebrities and the achievement of the fashionable look requires great planning and careful attention to details and a lot of creativity on the part of the photographer.

As wedding photography evolves, so must the wedding photographer who will need to keep abreast of the current trends and also come up with some very unique ideas themselves, as this will make them stand out from their competition. They will have to learn and develop new techniques to capture that special wedding moment in pictures. Wedding days are special events in the lives of couples and memories are kept alive forever with inspiring photographs.
