TROUGH THE GUESTS by THE WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER IN LISBON
The two photographs are of the bride and groom entering the room at Casa de Reguengos among the guests
The right point of view, for the photos
Even if it is one of the moments of the day that needs some mise en scene, the bride and groom entering the meal room, the movement combination ends at the moment they start to feel the energy when the people in the room selected by them start to tell them they are welcome. They, the guests, are very happy to be there.
It is one of those moments that may put the wedding photographer in some sort of panic because he can lose control and the notion of how and where the couple will gonna pass between tables and chairs as if the room were a dense forest. The photographer may need some superpowers to be in the right point of view, to photos that reflect the energy and love in that space.
Improvisation, an attraction for the wedding photographer
I must say, I love improvisation. I think it is the magnet that attracts me to wedding photography. Of course, I know, from wedding to wedding, how things go with some exactitude. But even if we know how a flock of school kids in general behave, we never guess the exact combination of the day in the schoolyard. That gives the wedding photographer a special boost to come back every time.
