What is Natural Wedding Photography?

If you are feeling a bit nervous about being the centre of attention on your wedding day and feel uncomfortable with the thought of posing for the camera all day, perhaps a more natural, relaxed approach will suit you best.

Your wedding day should be fun and all about the love you two share, so we don't want you worrying about the photography.  Let us explain a bit more about our approach to wedding photography and the experience you will have with us.

Our Approach

First of all, if you don't want the focus of your wedding to be about the photography, the idea of completely documentary photography might sound appealing, but in our experience, our couples appreciate some direction – after all, they’ve not done this before and aren’t professional models!

There are times when it is prudent to stand back and capture moments as they unfold. This way your photos are full of emotion and genuine expressions of love and laughter. At other times in the day, we love to create photographs – we will find the beautiful backdrops, seek the soft, beautiful light and guide you into position for natural looking portraits.

Weddings are fun, joyful occasions. We believe our style reflects this with natural, bright photographs. During your wedding day we’ll stand back, observe, and photograph the events as they unfold with as little interference as possible, this way your photos are full of emotion and genuine expressions of love and laughter. Where appropriate, we will provide guidance on where to stand and what to do to make you and your guests feel at ease, but those candid photos of your guests having a great time are what makes a wedding album special.

It doesn’t stop there

The process we use in post-production also allows for natural looking final images. While individually editing the photos, we keep them bright and the colours true to life. This means, the colour scheme you have so carefully chosen is representated as close to reality as possible.
