Why Your Wedding Photos Are a Work of Art

Some people see wedding images as no more than pictures taken on ‘just another day’, an expensive addition to the already spiralling wedding costs - and that’s okay. Just like there are weddings of all shapes and sizes with different priorities, so too are there photographers!

Natural, journalistic, documentary, reportage, portraiture, fairytale, creative, whimsical, romantic, editorial… the list is honestly endless when it comes to how a photographer might describe their approach to capturing your day.

Ultimately you photographer is going to work hard to create images you’re proud to hang on your wall, like a work of art!

Ask yourself, why do you display your family photos? 

There's a beautiful meaning behind them?

They show happy times?

The memory it transports you to?

Photographs, to me, allow us to remember a moment time will one day cruelly force us to forget. They preserve the person, the feeling and most of all they preserve the memory. This is probably my core truth for being a photographer, essentially what it all boils down to for me.

Created By An Artist

When thinking about what an artist is, you think about famous painters and sculptors. You don’t tend to think about editors, photographers, or directors. But the thing they all have in common is that they all create something, they all have a vision and a process in order to create something a work of art, of course this applies to your wedding images. Each artist has built up their own unique experience and style and the creators you’re drawn to are a reflection of your own creative style.

Your wedding photos are a work of art because they are created by an artist, your photographer.

Your wedding photos are a work of art because your photographer has spent years perfecting their craft, and now they’re using their creative skills to capture the magic of your wedding through still images, so when you look back at them you are able to completely re-live one of the happiest days of your life. Whether you’re looking back in one month, one year or ten years!

Level Up Your Wedding Photos

To some, the idea of framing pictures of yourselves staring directly at the camera is horrifying, trust me I feel you. We’re all searching for real and candid moments that evoke an organic memory, not the memory of your photographer asking you to do something strange

Not only do we want to remember real moments, we want to remember real moments beautifully captured, with a style that suits our home. The trick is to find a photographer who is able to capture these candid moments, but with enough style and experience to do it effortlessly and still create images we consider a work of art and would be proud to have on our walls.

For those who want to take it one step further, those who are really looking for unique and jaw dropping images, you need to get off the beaten path and into the wilds!  

Make time for your portraits on the day, find a photographer who’s willing and able to embrace the landscape and importantly knows how to capture you two in amongst it. This way you end up with wedding images you’d be proud to have on your walls for years to come.

Your Wedding Photos Tell A Story

A lot of the time art tells a story, sometimes it’s very clear what that story is, and sometimes it's not. 

When you look back at your wedding photos, not only can you re-live your day through the moments captured, but also enjoy parts of your day you didn’t see. The laughter on your family's faces, the nerves while each of you got ready.

Getting your wedding images printed in an album is the best way to showcase the story of your day. Immortalising all those little details, your family, and your memories.

A wedding album is the perfect way to tell the story of your big day, in a way that showcases your wedding photos as the works of art they are.

Family Heirlooms

Family heirlooms are something of significance that belongs to the family and can be passed down to future generations.

The art of wedding photos is that these make amazing family heirlooms. In years to come, your wedding photos will be passed down, to your children, their children, and so on. And they’ll be able to tell the stories of the past because you decided to capture those special moments.

Conclusion
