What a cool idea! The guys were all in top hats and the women with Fascinators! A wedding at the very beautiful Queens Landing it was the perfect compliment to the old decor. I felt I was thrown back in time.
Retro is in, a lot of young people love the look of old photos. This is where photo editing, my favourite thing to do comes in very handy! The job of a photographer to ensure they always have the "standard" wedding shots and then to have some fun and give their clients something unique. It is very easy to pose people and take photos, what will set your photographer apart is how they interact with you and if they make you feel at ease. They should take the types of photos that you are looking for. If you want posed photos or prefer candid shots. Most photographers are very "old school" and follow the wedding photo train of thought, they set up the wedding party in a nice place and rearrange them to get different shots. Some are slowly breaking out of this tradition and starting to think outside the box.
When looking for a Photographer make sure you find someone who knows what type of photos you are looking for. They should plan the wedding photos based on what type of photos you would like in your album after the wedding is complete. Everyone wants the photos of the Aunts/Uncles/Grandma's etc. But think of the shots you would like when you are putting your album together and make sure your photographer gets these shots! If you want a "collage" page, you will need shots of the assorted objects from your wedding. Shoes, rings, flowers, place cards etc.
I loved the uniqueness of the wedding this past weekend. It showed that the couple thought through all of the details very carefully to ensure it was the day THEY wanted.
That being said, here is your photo of the week for my 52 week project. :) With a little bit of editing I think it really does look like it might have been taken in 1910!!
