More Story to Tell in the Wedding Photographs

There’s always so much to photograph as soon as the wedding photographer arrives at the couple’s house. Some more than others, but there’s never a lack of material. It’s true that when I find a full house, I know I won’t be giving my cameras and lenses any rest—and that I’ll have more story to tell.
Interaction. That’s the most important word and what gives me the most value when I start doing my job. The more people I find helping each other out during the preparation for the ceremony, the greater the chances the wedding photographer will return with memory cards full of images that show a family in motion.
The photographs are made by the people at the wedding

I know my job as a wedding photographer is always to deliver the best I can on that day. But, experience tells me that the people who make the photographs are those who are there. The groom, the bride, the other professionals helping them look their best, the family, those friends who never miss out, the light, and even the dog or cat when they’re around. The wedding photographer simply collects the images like ripe apples in a good harvest year.

Point by point:
- Whenever the wedding photographer enters the house of one of the soon-to-be-married couple, he likes: ◦ That the house is full of people
◦ So there will be plenty to photograph for the story of the wedding day - When there are a lot of people around during the couple’s preparations, I know there will be:
◦ A lot of interaction
◦ They’ll be helping each other
◦ They’ll give me great settings for the photos
◦ There are lots of emotions in the air to bring into the wedding photographs - The wedding photographs are not made by the photographer. Those who make them are:
◦ The people who are there
◦ The groom, the bride, the family, and the wedding guests - The photographer, with their technique and knowledge, simply captures them—or, as I prefer to say, picks them like ripe fruit in an orchard.
You need to know:
- Entering the house where the groom or bride is getting ready for their wedding day is always an unknown until the photographer walks through the door. Then, it depends on whether it’s a house full of people or not. A lot of people sharing their space during those moments makes the work easier and produces more photographs.
- But don’t think that if that doesn’t happen, I’ll be left clueless. Of course not. There’s always a way to photograph, whether surrounded by people or not. Wedding photographs are made with whatever we find, and all that’s needed is to start discovering them, and they won’t be lacking.
Don’t worry, you don’t need to fill your house with friends for my work to be done, and done well. It will be what it needs to be. Come meet me for a chat so we can talk about what you’re planning and so I can show you more of my work.
