THE WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER DEFINED


Wedding Photojournalism


According to Wikipedia, “Photojournalism is a particular form of journalism (the collecting, editing, and presenting of news material for publication or broadcast) that creates images in order to tell a news story”. In recent years, this approach has lent itself to the practice of capturing matrimony. This artistic style may entail black and white or color images, film or digital photography. Wedding photojournalism work in a documentary manner, easily replacing the narrative itself.

As defined by Encarta, Photojournalism is “journalism using mainly photographs: a form of journalism in which photographs play a more important role than the accompanying text”. Wedding Photojournalism is characterized by its candid, creative and natural results spanning serious to humorous scenes. While traditional wedding photography dictates the setting, wedding photojournalism documents the moment.
