Creative Wedding Photography Concepts

By Bernard Gray


We are living in an increasingly competitive society and most brides desire their wedding to be one that's discussed for years to come. Weddings have almost become a variety of competition among some brides to ensure theirs is the largest, the brightest, the most unusual wedding in their circle of family and friends. One of the popular methods to inject some uniqueness into a wedding is with unique and creative wedding photography.

Your wedding photographer will be more than happy to offer you some concepts and creative ideas to make your photos unique, but don't be scared to input your own ideas also. Brides can become worried about appearing in your face, but at the end of the day, you are employing the shutter-bug and there's a big difference between asking for what you need and telling him or her the way to do their job. A good cameraman should be pleased to hear your ideas and even suggest ways to implement or improve them.

Some concepts to consider include incorporating past-times and interests into your wedding footage. If you like roller skating together, why don't you consider one or two shots of you roller skating in your wedding clothes. If you're from a farming or country background, a wacky shot of the bride hiking up her dress to reveal muddy Wellington boots can be a serious amount of fun.

It's also good to include props from every day life or occupation. If the groom is an officer, have some mugshot style images taken. The chances are vast and can really help put your mark on your pictures.

Meet with your paparazzo ahead of time and tell him or her everything about you both in order that they can offer some creative suggestions for props and poses. If your concepts aren't feasible on the day, consider an additional bridal shoot at a later date.
