WEDDINGS
and each serves a very different purpose.
Whilst a wedding DVD will provide a literal record of your day, with the moments, funny outbursts and expressions you may have missed, wedding photographs, when kept on your mantelpiece or on your desk at the office, have the potential to be moments frozen in time. It’s important, then, to freeze them perfectly, and to do so with a high level of both technical and creative mastery.

Main image, reportage photograph is ad-hoc, rather than posed. It’s a great technique for capturing natural expressions and suits shots of a bride getting ready in the morning.
Fortunately, the advent of digital cameras plus Photoshop and a new generation of technology-savvy digital photographers has provided brides with the greatest ever scope for creative, clever and artistically shot images.
In general, most photographers will shoot a combination of formal (i.e: staged) and reportage photography (i.e: unposed, unobtrusive, on-the-fly). Look for a photographer who values natural light, as well as being competent with flash, one that can provide an album as well as digital images.
Expect to pay between £1,000-£2,500 for a good photographer who includes post-production work; there are some who provide an ‘images on the same day’ service which is certainly convenient, but images reach their customers untouched and this service usually doesn’t include professional prints and albums.
Here, we’ve asked one of the area’s most experienced wedding photographers to provide his recommendations for the top ten must-capture shots of the day, and for advice when you’re looking for your wedding photographer.
