Difficult to choose my Wedding Favouites
As a seasoned Somerset wedding photographer, choosing just a handful of my favourite wedding photos is like choosing between my own children. But if I had to, I’d pick those that highlight some vital aspects of wedding photography. So, let’s dive into these five facets – lighting, composition, emotion, location, and of course, the stunning day. Each of these aspects shines in the wedding photos featured on my Favourite Photos Page.
The Magic of Lighting in Wedding Photography
Lighting in wedding photography isn’t just about visibility. It’s about creating an atmosphere, an ambiance. Whether it’s the soft diffused light during the golden hour or the dramatic shadows of a candlelit dinner, each lighting condition creates a unique mood. But don’t just take my word for it, check out the visual feast in The Magic of the Wedding Day on The FX Works.
The Art of Composition in Wedding Photos
Composition is all about how elements are arranged within a frame. A good composition brings balance, guides the viewer’s eye, and emphasizes the subject. It’s like the grammar of photography. From the rule of thirds to leading lines, a well-composed photo can tell a compelling story. For more on how I achieve this in my work, take a peek at Unobtrusive Wedding Photography.
Emotion: The Heart of Wedding Photography
Photos that capture raw, authentic emotions are the ones that touch your heart. The joy, the tears, the nervous anticipation, the love – it’s these emotions that make a wedding day so special. As a wedding photographer, my goal is to capture these fleeting moments and immortalize them in photos. I pride myself on my ability to capture the personality and genuine emotions of the couple, as you can see in this Candid Wedding Photography post.
Location: More Than Just a Backdrop
The wedding location sets the stage for your story. Whether it’s a chic urban wedding in Bath or a rustic countryside wedding in Somerset, the location adds character and context to your wedding photos. If you’re still deciding on the perfect venue, you might find Questions to Ask Venues and Somerset: The Place to Wed helpful.
The Stunning Day: When Everything Comes Together
A stunning wedding day is not just about the perfect dress, location, or weather. It’s about how everything – the details, the moments, the emotions – come together to create a beautiful symphony that’s unique to your love story. The magic lies in capturing this harmony in photos, something I talk about in Complete Wedding.
The Role of the Dress in Wedding Photos
The wedding dress, with its elegance and grandeur, plays a key role in wedding photos. While it’s important to choose a dress that you love, considering how it photographs can make a big difference. For instance, a design that covers the upper arms and doesn’t have a low waistline back can create a more flattering silhouette in photos. The Wedding Gown page on The FX Works has some great advice on this topic.
Why Book a Professional Wedding Photographer
When it comes to preserving the memories of your big day, it’s crucial to have a professional behind the lens. The expertise, equipment, and experience of a professional wedding photographer can make a world of difference. You can learn more about this in Why Book a Photographer and Cost of a Wedding Photographer.
A Picture Is Worth a Thousand Words
Every wedding photo tells a story, a beautiful tale of love, joy, and togetherness. It’s not just about capturing a moment but about capturing the feeling of that moment. Check out the Capturing the Personality blog post to see how a photo can encapsulate the essence of a couple’s love.
The City of Bath: A Dream Wedding Destination
Speaking of stunning locations, the city of Bath is a gem of a place for a wedding. With its unique blend of historical charm and modern sophistication, it offers countless photo opportunities.

Natural Wedding Photography: Authenticity At Its Best
When it comes to wedding photography styles, I’m a huge fan of natural wedding photography. It’s all about capturing the spontaneous, candid moments that truly reflect the joy and emotion of your special day. Have a look at the Natural Wedding Photography section to see what I mean.
Reportage Wedding Photography: A Documentary Style
Another fascinating style is reportage wedding photography. It’s a documentary-style approach that captures the day as it unfolds, resulting in genuine and evocative images. The Reportage Wedding Photography page offers some excellent examples of this style.
Why Secure Your Wedding Date Early?
With so many things to plan for, it’s easy to overlook the importance of securing your wedding date early, especially when it comes to booking your wedding photographer. The Why Secure Your Wedding Date article provides some insights into why this is so critical.
Wrapping Up: It’s All in the Details
In conclusion, great wedding photos aren’t about the camera or even the person behind it. They’re about the love story, the tiny details, the magic of the day, and the art of preserving them in photographs. It’s about capturing the soul of your wedding day and turning it into a beautiful, timeless visual narrative.
