WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY STYLES

Wedding photography styles differ from the so called modern approach to the older traditional ways.  The way I see it, modern tend to be younger photographers from the digital era, whom like to create the “in the moment images” and without much directing. Simply waiting for the special moments to happen before them and making sure (and praying) it’s well captured.  From my past experience working with traditional wedding photographers seem to have been experienced under the good old film days where focus lied on staged setups. When choosing your photographer of course neither is right nor wrong it just depends on your personal likes and requirements.

So which photography style suits you? Hmmm, well if you want to truly enjoy your big day without being told “chin up, smile, eyes wide, smile again hold hold…click click” then definitely look for a modern photojournalistic style such as these below images. I would recommend this style for anyone who wants to forget they invited a wedding photographer and simply are willing to put their trust into the professional wedding photographers’ hands…Less stress, less distractions.



As for a traditional photographer; this would suit a wedding couple who absolutely knows what they (she) wants at any given time and has memorised every tree, field, valley, sun angle, which will provide a stunning wedding photo.




Either way, a professional photographer will provide beautiful wedding images, while capturing natural lighting and emotion to complete your special wedding.
Good luck in your searches!

Robin & Rebecca's Wedding Photographs

We decided to shoot Robin and Rebecca’s  wedding photos at Bo-Kaap, a couple roads up from Long Street, Cape Town. It was freezing cold, windy, non-stop drizzling and very grey...Not appetising weather to shoot in but hey, What can you do??? Well, I tell you what you can do: Against anyones better judgement, have Robin and Rebecca consume a few swigs of Old Brown Sherrie, until their youth come to life, give them a Vespa kindly donated by a friend and simply let them loose!!!!
We started off by finding a very brightly painted yellow house and wall, which was excellent to brighten up the dull afternoon weather. Excellent for taking photos but honestly who the heck paints their house ultra bright yellow? I guess it always feels like summer in that house!..... I decided to use the cameras RAW setting function to allow for some post editing in Photoshop, which allows me to readjust the cameras white balance. This definitely always needs to be done in very dull weather and in very bright conditions to either lift the photo or deal with harsh white spots and shadows, especially on your persons face. I also decided to use my Canon 24-70mm L – lens set just off its wide angle range around 28mm. In my opinion this is the best lens I owe and would be very lost without it! It’s always my first choice when shooting weddings as its focus is super fast and quiet and always gives a good Depth of Focus, especially when used at f/2.8 aperture to allow the maximum light through.




By luck we also “found” a very random archway painted purple and brown, with some art work of the local labour back from Cape Town’s early days. We had moment to get out of the rain and shoot some in-motion photos for a few minutes but to our surprise we got stormed by a tour bus full of Germans and hence we decided THAT was our cue to get right out of there!!!! The last photo is of them making their great escape while still slightly under the influence of OBS!


Before leaving the area, we found one last hill which has some great cobble-stones and some seagulls, so we took our chances with me lying flat on the street and focusing in with my Canon 70-200mm L-lens shooting at around 1/80th of a second to try get as much light through the lens as possible. Thankfully it was Sunday so we never got interrupted by any town traffic, BUT we slowly noticed curtains getting pulled back from the surrounding flats with inquisitive faces looking back at us!!!! Probably thinking....”SHAME!!!”


Driving out of town we decided to shoot a few beach wedding pictures. The light was very dark so keeping my Canon camera on RAW; I turned the camera F settings up by 1¼ stops to be able to keep the photos pin sharp. Unfortunately this method means you almost always will over expose the background, which in this case was my sky. The below photos were taken around the 1/60th of a second, which means with any fast moving objects (In this case Rebecca’s roses!) will give a artistic motion type blur. Very nice when it works for you, but a pain when it goes wrong! During my early days I use to find it very difficult to judge this correctly. Sometimes you think it’s perfect while looking at the cameras 3 ½” LCD screen during a busy wedding shoot, just to get home and view them on your p.c. monitor......that’s when you feel the blood draining from your head!

JONATHAN AND MARIE'S DAY...

Marie approach me a while ago to organise a wedding re-shoot. Unfortunately, the wedding photographer she hired returned with very poor images and all were unusable. :-(

Marie wanted to have some simple images of her and her newly wedded husband which they could proudly show off, so we decided to re-shoot in Cape Town on Lions Head and Camps Bay - after all, if you cant replicate your wedding day why not shoot some photos in the most beautiful part of South Africa? Thankfully we chose a nice warm sunny winter day so we headed up to Lions Head (for the few remaining pine trees) to get away from the harsh midday sunlight and find some shade. Once there we immediately found a nice umbrella type tree divided between all the endemic fynbos. This particular variety of fynbos had thorns as my bare feet quickly found out.
   

That's me... (Before the thorn attack!)
For the midday, there was a  large contrast of lighting - I definitely had to make use my external Canon EX 580's to combat the shadows casted on Marie and Jonathan's face. My trick is to use the setting way down to 1/8th of their normal power otherwise it starts to look like fake lighting - I guess this comes down to personal liking. Below are some examples used with my 10mm wide angle lens.




Later in the afternoon we saw it was going to be a awesome sunset evening, so we decided to very quickly make our way to Camps Bay - great sunsets are always guaranteed here, with stunning white sands, massive brown boulders, palm trees etc the list goes on and on. (For a quick glance on google map follow this link.) When we arrived, I immediately noticed the waves were throwing up large sprays when crashing into the boulders and thought we got to get some evening long exposure shots. Great stuff - bring out the tripod, Canon 50mm Len's, flashes, etc. Setting used ranged around 2 second exposures, F/6 and included my ND filter.  
Here are some of the wedding photos which turned out really stunning - well at least I think so!!!!! 
 

Thanks Jonathan and Marie for the great enthusiasm and willing to try all the angles we asked from you - you guys were great! I wish you all the best of luck!!!!!
