If you’re planning an engagement or wedding here in the Orlando area and want gorgeous and romantic photos, then you need a photographer whose work you absolutely love! It is paramount that you connect with your photographer and have fun!
It is important to have some sense of what photography style you like. While connecting with your photographer is key to great photos, it is crucial to know their style photos you are looking for. It would be a disaster to discover you don’t like the type of pictures your photographer took, weeks after your big day. Unfortunately, it happens more often than you would think!
Start out by looking at the photographers website and the gallery of their work. Then contact the photographer and have a conversation with them and get a feel for their personality.
When it comes to styles of photographs, they are very subjective and there are many, you don’t need to learn them. Instead, think about what types of photo you’re attracted to or group of photos.
Do you like moody and dark pictures, or do you prefer airy and light?
Are black and white photos something you like, or would you rather vibrant colors, or something in between?
Do you prefer clean or cluttered backgrounds?
Are you attracted to everything sharp and in focus, or photos with a blurry background?
Or do you want a combination of a few styles?
If you are looking for romantic pictures that show the love between the happy couple. Just act normal, the authentic love will shine through. Your photographer should guide you for the most flattering poses. One partner embracing the other from behind or resting a hand on the others chest.
The key to really great photos is to let your personality come through. If you both love pets, invite your dog into the session. If you plan to have a wedding involving family traditions, play it up and really own it.
Portray the fun and happy side of your relationship. Try and just ignore the camera. If you’re a little nervous about how you look, don’t be. A good photographer will know the angles and lighting to get the perfect shot.
