"Candid or Posed? How to Find Your Wedding Photo Style"

Candid or Posed Wedding Photos is something many couples wonder about and asking me a lot during consultation. Every couple is different, and so is their wedding photography vibe. I love to listen about your ideas and its important that you feel yourself on your Wedding Day.

 What Are Posed Photos?

Posed photos are traditional and directed. They are including flattering angles, control over lighting/background - important for family portraits.

What Are Candid Photos?

Candid photos have natural and emotional style, being in-the-moment. Capturing authentic emotion, storytelling, laughter and freezing that moment.

Which One Is Right for You?

Do you picture joyful, in-the-moment laughter and stolen glances (hello, candid shots)? Or do you love the elegance and timeless feel of beautifully posed portraits? The truth is, there’s no one-size-fits-all answer. It all comes down to your personality, your vibe as a couple, and how you want to remember your day. I can help you decide which photo style (or mix of both!) suits you best.
