Choosing a Wedding Photography Style

Look at your parents' and grandparents' wedding photos and they'll all start to look a bit similar. Nowadays, though, there are many different styles of wedding photography. Do you know how to choose the right style for you?

Whatever style you choose, it's still likely you'll do a few posed photos. These will include shots of you and your new spouse, as well as group photos of the wedding party and possibly even the guests. These are a great record of the day, but will generally form only part of your overall wedding photos.



Photojournalism style wedding photography has become much more popular. With this style, your photographer will follow the day to capture the spontaneous moments that tell the story of your wedding. From getting dressed to getting down on the dance floor, the photographer will focus on what happens, rather than just portrait-style photos.

Another popular twist to wedding photographs is to add creativity to the posed photos. This can include finding special locations for some of the photos. There are plenty of great examples of this type of creative wedding photography online, with some making a big impact and setting the trend.



When you choose a wedding photographer, it's important to find one you get along with, but also one that works in the style you want for your photos. When you come to one of our shows, you'll be able to meet photographers and view their work. You can also find them through our exhibitor directory!
