Check Out the Top Wedding Photography Trends

Posted on March 5, 2018December 23, 2022 by Wedding Planner

There is no doubt that marriage is one of the most important moments in many people’s lives. It is a remarkable rite, which since the invention of photography, guarantees income for photographers. It is an ancient tradition, also affected by social evolution and new technologies.

Thinking about it, we made this quick article bringing four of the top trends in wedding photography.

These are innovative ideas that should be evaluated by you!

1) Pre-wedding covers

The wedding day is always full and frantic for the photographers, who do their best to capture each special moment. Faced with this reality, coverage made before the date (besides the normal test) gain popularity and may present several advantages.

The tendency is not to just click on the couple’s external essay (e-session), but look for other important moments in the story, to generate extra covers that enchant brides.

Clicking on a day of the delivery of invitations (perhaps to Grandma), the last proof of the dress, the bridal shower of the bride, etc., can create a great differential and make your coverings even more complete and impressive.

2) Use of video frames in albums

With the advancement of camera sensor technology and the convergence of photo and video (which are now being captured with the same equipment), the possibility for the photographer to use frames taken directly from video outlets and pictures as pictures.

This is a very strong trend, which is already taking the market of advertising photos in Europe and tends to arrive with force also in the market of events. Cameras like the Canon 5D Mark 4 and Sony A9, which shoot in 4K standard, already allow you to remove 8 megapixel frames directly from the videos, with the potential to generate beautiful photos.

Soon we will have 8K cameras on the market, making RAW videos, which will allow the photographer to use 33 megapixel frames with total freedom of editing.

These sensors already exist and are getting cheap, so it’s good to get ready and start training clicks and videos on your jobs.

3) Essay on the honeymoon

As much as the idea may seem strange, not a few couples are planning to take the photographer to the honeymoon. This is because the scenery (usually paradisiacal) of the destination of the trip can bring a touch of unforgettable romanticism to the photos.

Without the pressure of the ceremony’s formal climate and the excessive care of the appearance, it is possible to make a more relaxed and professional souvenir of the trip. Some brides even pay the photographer to accompany an entire day of the couple, entering the water, exploring natural scenes and even going along to record some ballad, which can render photos spontaneous and full of authenticity.

4) Use of drones

The drones are not unanimous, but it is undeniable that they are revealed as a trend, not only for wedding photography, but for recording every kind of event, as they allow the exploration of new angles at any time.

These handsets are perfect to provide a panorama of the entire party or even to show the beauty of the place where the wedding is being held. It is a tool that helps create interesting images, which help tell the story and create context.

With the growth of the consumer market, drones are getting smaller, quieter, easier to use and much cheaper. Thus, it is already certain that we will see more and more professionals creating beautiful scenes with them at weddings.

Due to Corona, our Wedding date was decided just a month in advance. Our date could not be changed, and the time was short. Somehow, I stumbled across Maryam’s company. She was Alhumdulillah such a big blessing at that crucial time. She went over and beyond her role. From finding a great venue to negotiating an excellent rate with the organisers and a custom menu, she managed everything. Thank you so much Maryam.
