The characters of the wedding day
Maybe, inside this wedding photographer, an imaginary desire to be a movie director will take him to exercise points of view to tell a story without a writing screen story and sound. Without writing we never guess what those characters, that fulfill the wedding day plateau, will do in the next moment.
Without sound, as the first day’s movies stories, to give us the possibility of fill, with the imagination, by the bright eye, by the smiles or by the introspection moments, yes they exist even if it is not a movie about the inner soul, and guess the dialogues that only will be memories in those who lived them.
Fill the gaps with photos of the wedding
Because I am not a cineast, as a wedding photographer I can assume that the cinema shows me how important it is in my work to fill the empty memory gaps of those who lived the intense moments of the day. The photos will help to remember. Because of that, I must be a wedding photographer.
