The photographing of a wedding

 

The photographing of a weddingYour wedding is an important moment in your life that for sure you would want to capture in pictures. Therefore, you should choose a photographer who has the training and aesthetic sensibility to capture not only successive images but also the temperament, character and your interests as a couple and will create for you a wedding album of a lifetime memories.

Marriage is a profitable photography theme, in which most photographers are involved. However, the quality of the services that are offered, the training, the pricing and the aesthetic perception surrounding the photographing of marriage influence the result.

Most photographers in our country are stuck on the same tried formula and the same tactic of capturing the image of marriage, which almost always focuses on the church ceremony, and they are using mostly the same technique. Although the use of portable flash, which flattens any unique features, has been replaced today by complete studio lighting with multiple flashes, the approach remains the same and lacks technical originality. This is due to the limited space in the church and the sanctity of the space that restricts the freedom of movement and results in the recording of successive images of the ceremony and the taking of pictures from the same limited viewpoints. So if you open the wedding album of friends and acquaintances you will find that all marriages in our country have the same style and one wedding is an exact copy of all other weddings.

Ιn other European countries and America, where the wedding photography has little to do with religious or civil ceremony, we can identify a difference in the approach and the aesthetic level, as well as a search for originality and diversity. In these countries more time is dedicated to the photographing of the wedding, which is appreciated and paid well, it is dedicated to the couple and reflects the couple’s character and interests. This difference in approach and the high aesthetic level is due to the fact that, unlike in our country where regardless of the economic level one marriage copies the other, in European countries and America each wedding is different because each wedding is planned according to the couple’s budget and taste.

Because of the wedding high expenses and because we don’t know enough about the photographing of weddings we often search for a lower price. However, you should remember that we get what we pay for, and that the quality of the performance depends on the fee that the photographer will receive. Many photographers are able to offer extremely low prices because they take on more than one wedding on the same weekend in order to increase their productivity and revenue. This ‘piece work’ limits the aesthetic sensibility of the photographer, and affects the quality of his work. The lack of aesthetics in our country is due also to the inadequate training and inexperience of many photographers, who take on the photographing of wedding with confidence because they know that if they stick to the ordinary, the topic is simple. If you want something different check the work of several photographers and choose an experienced and creative photographer. You may need to spend some more time photographing your wedding and the photographer's fee might be higher, but the result will be worth the money you pay.
