How To Use Creative Wedding Photography To Tell The Story Of Your Big Day

By Elaine Guthrie


Planning your wedding means making a lot of decisions. One important decision is who will capture your big day in a lasting format that you can look back on over the years to come. Creative wedding photography exists that can give you a lasting memento. Here is what you need to know in order to pick a photographer that can give you the images you are looking for.

Years ago, there tended to be a list of specific poses that couples wanted to capture. This hasn't changed. What has changed is how brides want those moments to be captured. For many couples, they are no longer as interested in posed pictures. Instead, they may want a different style of photography that tells the story with a much more natural feel.

Knowing what style you like can help you save time and money when hiring a service provider. You can save time by cutting out the Derby, UK photographers who do not have the style that you are looking for. This is best done by looking at a portfolio of their work. Do not be afraid to inquire if they have experience shooting at your venue or in the type of conditions that will exist on your special day.

You should also have a list of the different moments that you want to have captured on film. This can be helpful when you are looking at a specific artist's work. You should ask yourself if they tend to take the kinds of photos you are looking for in a way that you like. Once you start speaking with specific individuals or companies you may want to use your list as a way of communicating exactly what you want when arranging a package.

You may wonder why the cost varies so much from one service provider to the next. One factor is the length of time that an individual will be shooting. Another factor is whether or not there will be more than one individual working at the same time. Yet another factor is the number of images that your package contains and how it is presented to you.

You may notice that many service providers quote not only in terms of number of images provided but also in the length of time that they shoot for. This is where having a general feel for how your day will progress. You may also want to limit the photographer to the ceremony and reception only and get photographs of you getting ready from another source.

If you want to keep costs affordable, you may want to reduce the hours that the service provider will be working and use candid photographs from your family and friends. These can be great for capturing some images. Many brides are beginning to use photo sharing apps that let them gather all of the candid photos from their guests and turn it into a record of their special day.

One last way to save some money is to speak with friends before you start calling individual service providers. You can find out who they used to capture their own special moments. You can also find out who they would and would not hire in future. There are also websites that allow you to look at reviews of individuals and you may be able to avoid spending too much.
