How to photograph the emotional beauty of the wedding photography

The focus of this article is not wedding portrait photography techniques and methods, but focuses on introducing how to build atmosphere, and grasp the emotion, take pictures of the emotional. Skills are important, but if we are too obsessed with form, you will never discover the pleasure of photography. Even without a gorgeous shooting technique, stunning composition, as well as those realistic-looking post-processing, photography still can make us thinking and exploring, shooting pictures which can touch yourself and others is our original desire. Today, we talk about those unknown creative ideas of wedding photography.

First, all the skills only to express emotion

As far as possible improve acquire your own equipment, then constantly learning and research skills. Some people, when they get clear gorgeous photos, they often feel confused. Actually all the equipment and techniques just to make photos with emotion, good works tend to have very strong feeling of attracting, and it can make you happy, sad, thinking and imagination. It is the essence of the photography conveys emotion, we need the audience, more need to be infected with the audience.

Second, the communication and exchanges, use heart to photograph

Photography is like a mirror, it reflects our inner space. Every photographer has its unique emotional opinions and expressions, and how to reach an agreement with the photographed? You need our previous communication and exchanges.

In my case, for example, first of all, choose my clients are fully accepting my photo style. I will communicate with customers about ideas, do a project, listened to their story before shooting, let us become natural and optional. Most significant is everyone speaks freely, leap up the mind and imagination more possibilities together.

And photography need to return to the photographer themselves. Photographer's own state of mind and emotions is vital for emotions expressed of the photo, I will try to adjust my mood, with the feelings of joy and exploratory, with a heart longing for love, and conservative with the definition of "love" to photograph.

Third, choose suitable environment and suitable light can foil out photos of emotion

"Emotion" is not necessarily the feelings, may be a mood, a feeling, and it can also be a state of mind or touched a moment. All need a suitable environment to complete, so I choose shooting area and the direction of the light, Angle, strength is very picky. To shoot with a quiet and warm feeling, for example, I would choose warm color is natural light, low Angle at sunrise scene requires the prospect of some elements with warm and quiet profound foreground.

And if you want to passion, released, and interesting pictures, I will choose some of the properties for styling environment, it can be completely irrelevant things together, I like to travel full of exploration and surprise as I work in the strange light and suddenly cattle and sheep into screen, disorderly into tend to make it interesting picture, because in the world of love all irrelevant will become fun and joy. Photography, more important is that we caught the moment of mood, record a mood. My work is basic respect the true colors of the natural landscape, rarely to modify some of the so-called flaws.

Fourth, music sometimes can be used as a catalyst of emotional expression

When I was shooting, I will often bring my small speakers (BOSE Mini passive speakers), and discussed the favorite songs with the photographed, and in the appropriate environment to play the song while shooting.

A song often provoke the models to mood, whether it is passionate, quiet, sad, or sweet, song is bearing the weight of the memory of each person is different, the photographer can choose to achieve emotional and subjective choice of different types of songs, when you and the photographed resonance for a song. So the time is ripe, emotional films photographer can easily press the shutter, and the attitude of the photographed also becomes natural, silence in the melody and release emotion. I really like the photography and music together, the former gives us visual perception, while the latter imagination space to us, to make work look fuller and surrounded by emotions.

Fifth, seize the moment with emotion

Many times I have the subject is not professional models, but ordinary people can do like professional models perform different character. Taking picture for such a customer, my request to them is to play themselves Most habits posture movement between lovers is very single, never like studio demo billowing flowers posture, and because the single action more highlights their uniqueness, also make the emotion all the truer in the photo.

I will direct a short play when shooting, choose according to customer's character lively and cheerful, or quiet and elegant, While most of the true feelings in the film is often between two continuous actions instant capture, or an action stalemate to begin to relax, a casual look, subtle body dynamic or a gust of wind blowing hair wadding is the best time to catch a mood to press the shutter.
