Details – part 2

documentary wedding photography

August 5, 2014 by Kevin Morris

It’s amazing how much work goes into the preparation of the reception room. The bride & groom, the venue and perhaps a wedding planner / co-ordinator work together to ensure that all aspects of the venue convey the ambience and the general “look” of the wedding. The touches unique to each couple, the colour scheme, the favours, the table dressings all combine to make each wedding unique. As a photographer being hired to document the day, I always take a little time to capture these details, they might never make it into an album, but they are an intrinsic part of the day.

On each wedding day, I am all about giving the bride and groom, their guests and families, plenty of room to enjoy themselves rather than spending hours and hours on posing for photos. This would be what the vast majority of couples prefer, but, having said that, if I see a shot, I will have no problems asking the couple to take a little time out to capture it.

The shot below is from a recent wedding, I had seen the possibility during the ceremony, and although the B&G didn’t want much in the way of “posed” images, they were happy to trust me that it would be worth it. We literally took 2 minutes to capture this image, 2 minutes for something which will hopefully last a lifetime.

Whereas I love the documentary images, the unposed moments, the laughs etc. I also am a firm believer in taking the time on the day to capture a few “posed” photos. They don’t have to be the traditional shots, they don’t have to be stuffy & rigid, but they can deliver on the wow factor and, as the shot below proves, done & dusted in a matter of minutes.

8 years into this full time photography lark and I am still learning ! It might sound like a cliché, but every wedding IS different and each couple have their own ideas & personalities which hopefully come across in my images. With each wedding comes new challenges, sometime new venues, and even new friendships but one thing that hasn’t really changed is my photographic style. Mainly documentary, but with a few “informal” posed shots…and yes….I still do the family shots !
Watch out shortly for some new album selections, as well as regular updates & sneak peaks throughout the year. 2014 is nearly fully booked out with just a few select dates available in November & December.
See attached slideshow for a selection of images from 2013 (mainly !) – if you like my style feel free to give me a shout, or, if you know someone tying the knot who might be interested feel free to share. Hope you enjoy the show (watch in HD for best results & big thanks to the multi talented and all round good egg Corin Bishop for the soundtrack !).

One of the regular questions I get asked is if I take the “family” shots.  Yes, I love documentary photography, and no, I’m not a big fan of overly posed images…….but I’m a big fan of balance. So, while I take some shots of the fun during the preparations, I don’t forget the shoes & the dress, and whereas I prefer to direct rather than pose couples, I still try to get some “timeless” bride and groom images, and yes, I do get the all important “family” shots, but I don’t drag out the whole affair till everyone has a pain in their face ! As I said, it’s all about balance, and delivering a selection of images to each couple which represents an accurate reflection of their big day both posed & unposed.

Check out the attached slideshow with a selection of images, some documentary and some (slightly) posed.

Unfortunately, due to a rather busy summer season I have neglected the blog & updates etc. So, I have a selection of images from some of my summer weddings. This is by no means a “best of” or a “top 30” just a few images which show my style (and the bride & grooms style !!) and how it can be adapted to your wedding. From detail shots, informal portraits, documentary and even a few “semi” traditional pics thrown in. Hope you enjoy – just hit the play icon at the bottom right to set the show off.

Thanks

Kevin

I was really looking for to Jenny & Ossians wedding as I had never shot in the stunning Moyvalley Hotel before. Unfortunately the weather misbehaved, but, to make matters worse, Jenny told me when I arrived that she had slipped 2 discs in her back the day before !! I needn’t have worried however, as neither the bad weather, nor the slipped discs could put a dampener on a wonderful day. From the intimate ceremony, the stunning location (indoor & out) and the general feel good atmosphere on the day it flew by in a blink of an eye with everyone having a fabulous time. Hopefully the few shots below can give you an idea of the day. Just click on the “play” icon on the bottom right to start the slideshow.
