FORMAL If you are having a traditional wedding, you may want traditional photographs. The main characteristic of this style is the posing and the group shots. Pictures of the Bride and Groom, the Bridesmaids. Then the family members followed by all the other guests. Because they are orchestrated group shots, this is a fantastic way of recording who was at your wedding and getting those important family group shots. When we meet to discuss the wedding (all part of the service), the photographer will note down all the group shots you require. This is to ensure none of those important, but shy, people are missed out. Talking to our customers, they like the traditional, but not just traditional. The most popular is a blend of the old and the new, a mixture of the formal and reportage. If you do only ask for a set of formal photographs, this will minimise the length of time the photographer is with you as most shots will be captured at the Church or chosen venue.
REPORTAGE Reportage is most like editorial photography, a more relaxed style. We aim to capture more of the spirit and energy of the day. The photographs still have an element of posing, but you and the photographer will have more freedom than in the formal style. The ultimate aim is to show people as they are during the day, but still capturing those special moments. Key moments such as the Bride leaving the house, the arrival at the Church, that first married kiss, the signing of the register the cutting the cake and the toast. In recent years this style has been made more popular by the increase in Celebrity Magazines. In general the images they show are in the reportage style. A main consideration with this approach has to be that; without the group shots of the formal style, you will need proportionately more pictures if capturing everyone is important to you. Using this approach means that the photographer will spend longer with you. The balance of the shots will be split between the service and the reception.
JOURNALISTIC This style differs from the others in that the photographs are not posed. In this case the photographer or maybe photographers will seek out pictures as the day unfolds. This approach is great for capturing the energy and spirit of the day. The photographer moves amongst the guests looking for those small moments; a laugh, a hug sometimes a kiss. It is these small moments which come together creating an emotional storyboard of your wedding day. As with reportage it is possible to cover the entire wedding in the journalist style. If you were to make this choice please be aware that there will not be any of the posed formal wedding photographs that many people expect. But what you will have is an intimate record of your wedding day. This approach requires that the photographer spend most of the day with you both at the service and reception. Many images will be taken to ensure good coverage and a good range of photographs for you.
