Wonderful weddings

This stunning shot fits the brief of wonderful weddings perfectly. The photographer has managed to ensure all focus is on the bride and groom in what could have been a very busy image. The white smoke acts as an extension of the bride's dress, which fills and flows across the bottom of the image and the purple glow of the lighting contrasts beautifully with the white, while helping to hide and blend the distracting background elements. We also love this image because it captures a very natural moment between the bride and groom.

It may not be a perfectly posed or traditional wedding shot, but this well-timed candid image of a newly married couple truly captures the fun and personality of their special day. The candid style of wedding photography is a great approach to capturing an accurate depiction of the mood and feel of the day. Here the couple have been captured in the middle of the frame, surrounded by jubilant wedding guests further adding to the feelings of happiness and joy.
