Photojournalism
The famous American photojournalist W. Eugene Smith, when asked 'what is photojournalism?' replied "It is documentary photography with a purpose".
A photojournalist is someone with a documentary assignment, a purpose for that day. Not just to fulfill a wishlist of photos, but to document spontaneity, emotion, energy and movement. To record the moments and produce the images that will deserve many second looks over the years.
There is a special combination of experience and technical excellence that allows one to anticipate lighting, shapes, colour, composition, actions and emotions. In doing so, a photojournalist can boast of capturing some truth within the images. more... |
 
Opportunities
One of the best ways to ensure that your day happens naturally is to create opportunities. The best planned days appear natural to all looking on.
Most opportunities of the day are already taken care of. Such as the preparations, ceremony and reception. I suggest that a phtoshoot occur around an arranged break in your day. Bring along things to do. Ie. Food and drinks, blanket and picnic setup, frisbee, beach, rugby or soccer ball, kites, etc.
At the very least, ensure that you are occupied doing something you both want to do. That is the way to avoid being directed by your photographer. It leaves the photographer to do the job of capturing the images. |

Photo Books
Order professionally printed and bound photobooks of your wedding. Select from hard cover with dust jacket or soft covers, large, medium or small and sets of mini picture books.
Photos are collaboratively selected and we do the layout. A pdf document of the finished book is sent to you via email as well as the exquisitely printed book.
These high quality books are printed on glossy paper and there are several sizes to choose from. Mini picture books can be purchased in sets of 3 and are great gifts.
I'm sure you'll love them when you feel the weight and quality of the pages in your hands and see your vibrant wedding memories tastefully displayed in well designed page spreads.
