One of the most frequently asked questions I get when sitting down with a bride is this question of Photojournalism. 95% of the 700 or so pictures you will get from Darkershadesofbrown after your wedding will be photo-journalistic. Often someone says to me that they don’t want any posed pictures and although I would gladly shoot that for you in the end your family and loved ones will hang us both if they don’t get that square to the camera say cheese with the cheese picture to hang on their wall.
Usually, my Trash The Dress Sessions will be more fashion oriented and involve posing techniques but a wedding…..
Weddings for me are all about capturing the spirit of the day. A wedding photojournalist is a person who takes photographs during a wedding using an alternative approach where images are captured spontaneously to emphasize moments and emotion. Much like photojournalists for the media, wedding photojournalists present the story of the day through their photographs. A wedding photojournalist typically shoots images quickly using available light or on-camera flash rather than using traditional, formal posing techniques and studio lights. The phrase wedding photojournalist has been in vogue for at least 10 years and has now become almost synonymous with normal wedding photography.
Magic moments like this one are why I love so much what I do. The bride being rushed out the door and helped and cared for by the girls who have loved her so much over the years.
I wouldn’t trade these moments for anything
I am a photojournalist in every sense of the word
