Wedding photojournalist

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A wedding photojournalist is a person who takes photographs during a wedding for a profession. They use an alternative approach to wedding photography wherein images are captured spontaneously to emphasize moments and emotion. Much like photojournalists for the media, wedding photojournalists present a story through the use of photographs. A wedding photojournalist typically shoots images quickly using available light or on-camera flash rather than using traditional, formal posing techniques and studio lights. A wedding photojournalist carries his or her photography gear, candidly capturing images during wedding day preparations, ceremony and reception party.

Employing the photojournalistic approach, the blurred action and framing helps to capture the excitement of the moment during the bouquet toss.
