Capture The Moment
| Q | Our wedding is fast approaching and we'd like our big day photographs to be timeless with a few fun extras. What's set to be the next big trend in the world of wedding photography? |
| A | Christina Davies says: A timeless photography style never goes out of fashion, but adding a few playful, modern touches can make your big day feel even more personal. Here are some upcoming trends that blend classic elegance with fun: Candid storytelling: Natural moments that capture raw emotions are the foundation of timeless photography. To elevate this, photographers are incorporating editorial-inspired touches. Bold colour: While soft, muted tones have dominated in recent years, bold, vibrant colours are making a comeback. Retro flash: Photographers are embracing retro-inspired flash for a more playful, party vibe during the reception. This trend adds a modern twist to classic portraits and brings the celebration to life. Editorial getting ready shots: Photographers often focus on ceremony and reception shots, but the getting ready moments are becoming just as important. Photographers are using this time to create fun candid moments with your bridal party. The biggest trend? Making your photos feel authentically you. From capturing your personalities to highlighting special traditions, your photographer will work to ensure your photos feel timeless with a personalised twist. |

Picture Perfect
| Q | How can we ensure our photographer is the right fit for our day? |
| A | Christina Davies says: The first thing I'd recommend you do is look at the photographer's website and see what style they use – documentary, fine art or classic? Look at their colours and editing style, as well as the type of photos they have on their website and social media, as those will be the styles that you receive. The next thing would be to meet with a few photographers whose photos you love and see who you feel comfortable with, as they will be with you throughout your wedding day, so it's important that you feel relaxed around them. Finally, check their online reviews and then go ahead and book with your favourite photographer. |
