The traditional style of Wedding Photography usually calls for a shot list. The photographer will focus on a step-by-step checklist, to make sure he has photographed everyone the bride and groom want. The print quality, correct lighting and proper background are photographer's main concerns.To make sure everything is just as it should be, every detail including: body alignment, lighting equipment, the background, even the dress, has be set. This takes time. Traditional Wedding Photography has a time commitment from the Bride and Groom. Often the photographer is left in charge of the flow of the wedding to accommodate his need of posing the pictures. The main idea behind the true traditional wedding photography style, is to create posed photographs to be displayed in a portrait album.
The photojournalistic style The photojournalist's goal is to take pictures while people are not aware they are being photographed. By blending with the crowd, a photojournalist is able to capture the action as it unfolds - the true emotions, the real expressions, the happiness and joy. Instead of the traditional formal portraits and posed candids, this approach produces a more intimate, artistic take on a wedding. Photos will reflect a fleeting, unposed moment that conveys the emotions of the day.
