How I Photograph Weddings as a Street Photographer
How I Photograph Weddings as a Street Photographer:
In this video, I talk about how I see the correlation between Wedding Photography and Street Photography.
Using the documented shooting approach of Tony Ray-Jones, I'll explain how the way we photography on the streets can aid us when photographing documentary weddings.
In this video I talk about Tony Ray-Jones' shooting approach notes:
Be More Aggressive
Get More Involved
Stay with the subject matter
Take Simpler Pictures
Relate Background to Subject
Vary Composition and Angles
Be more aware of composition
Don’t take boring pictures
Get in closer
Don’t shoot too much
Not all eye level
I explore in depth how I use those guidelines in Street Photography, but also how I incorporate them into my documentary wedding photography.
At the end of the video is another full-length wedding Photofilm, so hang around to the end if you wish to see that.
For those interested in the stills used in the video, I've included them below.
Full EXIF data is available in the images.
As ever, please feel free to leave comments below or over on the YouTube Video and I'll do my best to get back to you as soon as I can.
Oh, and don't forget our new podcast: The FujiCast Photography Podcast
For my Spanish friends, I have had the entire video close-caption in both English and Spanish.
Finally, thank you to those that stopped to say "hello" at The Photography Show.
Thank you for that.
