  • Some Tips for Artistic Wedding Photography https://www.nathanmphotography.com/

    If you've ever seen wedding photography from decades ago you may realize that everything about the wedding has been documented but you really can't call the photos artistic wedding photography. Many years ago it was even considered bad taste or rude manners to smile for a photograph so no wonder wedding photos were rather bland and boring! But today brides and grooms plan weddings that are personal and unique and nothing like their parent's or grandparent's weddings, and of course will expect some artistic wedding photography to complement the personality of the wedding and reception.

    Composing artistic wedding photography and taking unique photos isn't as hard as some people believe it is. There are a few simple tips and tricks you can employ to take your photos from bland and boring to absolutely breathtaking.

    For one thing, start by studying the artistic wedding photography of others that you see and that really catches your eye. What is it about these photos that appeals to you? Is it an unusual pose for the bride and groom? Many today have portraits where the subjects face either other rather than the camera, or for wedding portraits they're actually walking away. This can express how they're heading off to their new life together. Remember that artistic wedding photography usually starts with the subject in the photos, so don't settle for average or common poses. Study how others have dressed up their photos this way as inspiration for your own.

    Keep in mind that even the most artistic wedding photography should still reflect the personality of the bride and groom and the wedding overall. If the couple is very fun and whimsical and you insist on having those elegant poses this just won't work out well. The opposite is true as well - some are so concerned with fun and silly but artistic wedding photography that they don't realize they're making the couple uncomfortable or aren't matching the theme and tone of the wedding. A ceremony and reception at an elegant country club will probably mean that the couple won't want to toss around a beach ball between them, but a wedding at the beach should be treated a bit more casually.

    Practice the elements of artistic wedding photography. Go in your garden and take photos of the blossoms and blooms and pay attention to how different colors and contrast can make them "pop." Remember this when taking wedding photos as some forget to get contrasting colors in a shot. You'll also need to do some manipulating with your artistic wedding photography; pose the place settings and move the flowers or candles in closer if need be. You can practice this at home as well by purchasing cheap items at a discount store and arranging them on your own table or in your studio. This way you can really hone your talents at artistic wedding photography even before you get to the wedding and can be sure to create some really good photographs.
