It’s Time to Pick a
Photographer…But How?!
Featuring Ardent Photography
So you’ve decided to hire a professional photographer for your big day. The question now is WHICH
ONE? The first and probably most important thing you want to consider is style. What kind of photos
knock your socks off and really speak to you? There are as many photographers in this world as there
are wedding photography styles but for now let’s take a deeper look at some of the basics…
PHOTOJOURNALISTIC
As the name suggests this style of photography aims to document your big day in
a journalistic way. Wedding Photojournalists strive to really capture the complete
story behind your big day without interrupting the natural flow or influencing the
events that are occurring. PROS: The photos you will receive from this style of
photographer will be real and filled with emotion. You will have a wedding album
filled with how the day really went and more than likely your photos will not be
like everyone else’s. CONS: There is definitely a time to sit back and be a ‘fly on
the wall’ as well as a time to get in there and pose people for beautiful portraits. If
your photographer is strictly photojournalistic you may end up feeling like you’re
missing that one great portrait to blow up for your wall!
