Anticipation, Diligence and Patience

There are foreseeable moments during a wedding that we as a wedding photographer have learned to look for.  With our predictions skills well developed, we make sure as a wedding photographer that we are in the right spot to get the best wedding photograph.

Moments that we as a wedding photographer look out for are when ‘the groom sees the bride the first time walking down the aisle’ or ‘when the father of the bride has a last dance with his daughter’ and as a reputable wedding photographer we are always ready when these moments should prevails itself.  As an experienced wedding photographer, The Album knows when to anticipate such emotional events or moments and make sure that we are positioned perfectly to photograph such moment.

The little trickier moments are the completely unexpected moments, which often make the best wedding photographs of all.  This is where The Album insists in having two photographers present in anticipation.

As wedding photographers we are able to react instantaneously – if we see something and only then fetch our cameras, the moment has gone.  Diligence and patience are two of the most important hallmarks of capturing these fleeting moments.

Paramount to wedding photography is the ability to think clearly and quickly. More than having a decent piece of equipment or a fast lens, the most important tool for any wedding photographer is the ability to predict.  Our cameras are always ready to capture those memorable occasions, sometimes even from the hip.

To react successfully is to anticipate and then respond with action.  Like so many other excellent wedding photographers, we depend on the shared human experience to assist us in navigating this nebulous territory.  We as human beings we are all made up of our own experiences and we all have universal moments that we share.  We at The Album have that common ground with each wedding by listening to the sounds, feel the emotion and look for the signs.

As wedding photographer we watch how the wedding couple relates to the others in frame, while paying attention to the background.
