Looking for an editorial wedding photographer? Or is documentary more your style? How about a mix of both? Embarking on the journey of planning your wedding is an exhilarating ride, and one crucial decision you’ll make is choosing the right photographer to immortalize your special day. The world of wedding photography offers a myriad of styles, but today, let’s delve into two of my favorite, yet distinct, approaches: Editorial and Documentary.
Hiring an editorial wedding photographer is all about infusing your love story with a touch of Vogue. Imagine flipping through the pages of a high-fashion magazine, and there you are – the star of your own stylish narrative. This style is characterized by its avant-garde compositions, fashion-forward poses, and a flair for capturing moments with an editorial edge. It’s a way of translating your details, styling, and overall feeling of the day into something that could truly grace the cover of a magazine.
Moreover, documentary wedding photography, a timeless classic, focuses on capturing those heartwarming moments with an authentic touch. It’s about cherishing the love, joy, and timeless elegance that defines weddings, without being intrusive or controlling of the day. This style artfully captures the celebration as it unfolds, so you can be fully present with your nearest and dearest. The heart of this style is authenticity.
Why Opt for Documentary?
As you embark on this decision-making journey, consider blending the two styles for a comprehensive narrative.
As a hybrid wedding photographer, that’s my bread and butter. Most of the day is shot through a documentary approach so I can capture the day as it actually unfolds, instead of faking moments. Then when it comes to portraits, I am very good at directing we can capture you in your best light.
Ultimately, I think the choice between editorial and documentary wedding photography boils down to your unique style and vision. So, whether you’re envisioning a classic love story or a modern editorial masterpiece, remember, your wedding album is your story – told in your style.
