The First Kiss
Why I Love this Wedding Photograph
Louisa and Ian share their First Kiss at Wrest Park
From a Wedding Ceremony at Wrest Park
This photograph is another one from the archives, this time from the lovely wedding of Ian and Louisa at Wrest Park.
Regular readers of this wedding photography blog will know that I often post single images intending to let you know why I, as the photographer, like them so much.
You can, of course, see complete weddings throughout the Journal and the Wedding Stories section.
What I love about this wedding photo is the simplicity of the emotion.
It's a beautiful moment, but I've also included mums and dads in the background who look almost just as pleased.
Remember, a Documentary Wedding Photographer like myself will never orchestrate moments. Events must unfold naturally and without interruption.
In my mind, you can't direct emotion - it's an instinct, and this is one of those photographs which encapsulates that.
This post is part of my Why I Love this Wedding Picture series, where I describe why I, as the photographer, love a particular image or series of photographs.
