Things To Note About Wedding Photography

You probably know quite a fair bit about wedding photography, but the following are some of the most important things you should note especially when it comes to actual day wedding photography.

1) Most of the wedding photographs taken during your actual day marriage ceremony will be candid because both you and your spouse will not have much time to go to special places to pose – especially because you have so many guests around you.

You would instead have mostly group and candid wedding photographs taken.

2) The wedding photographer will be very busy during the actual day, hence unless necessary, you should let him or her do their thing. You have taken much time and effort in picking the best possible wedding photographer (i.e. http://www.grandeurweddingstudio.com/), so you need to trust him or her professional judgement. If you or anyone at the wedding ceremony constantly juts into his or her way of working, you will find that the photographs which he or she will take are not as wonderful as you want it to be.

3) Usually you will want somebody, preferably a best man, to point out who are the important guests whose photographs you and your spouse definitely want to be taken of. This is important or the wedding photographer might find it really difficult who to take more pictures of.

4) Please try to be on time for most of your events and make sure your guests do so too. (Chances are, you will be punctual but make sure all the important guests arrive on time!) If you or they do not, then it may potentially affect the number and types of photographs the actual day photographer will be able to take for you. This is especially the case with videos because even photos can be posed again but not videos!

Hopefully after reading this post you will have a better understanding of what to expect of the bridal photographer as well as your actual day ceremony!

Bridal Photo Shoot Inspiration

Wedding photo shoots can be beautiful, exciting, and… daunting. That is precisely because we want the wedding photo shoot to be perfect. We want the wedding photography album to look amazing and we put a lot of stress on ourselves to produce that. Even though a part of it is the wedding photographers’ job to produce a great wedding photo album for us, we realised that we do play a huge part in the success of the wedding photo album.

For instance, we are in control of our physical appearance on the day of the wedding photo shoot. In addition, we can plan the locations and style of the wedding photo shoot ourselves and not rely too much on the wedding photographers on that. Sometimes, we just know ourselves better and prefer the photographs to be taken in a certain style. The wedding photographers’ job is to cater to our requirements and help us produce the photographs according to the styles outlined at the beginning.

A big part of the stress comes from brainstorming the inspiration for the wedding photo shoot. You will need to ask yourselves deep down inside, which styles do you and your spouse prefer and come to a common consensus. The only way to do this is to sit down with your spouse and discuss about it. Perhaps take out 1 hour to discuss about this. You may also want to flip through wedding photographs taken by the other people to see if you and your spouse like that style and wants it to be incorporated during your wedding photo shoot too. For this purpose, it is important to get a large portfolio of wedding photographs for your reference. You can try to find these photographs online. I recommend checking out Grandeur Wedding Studio’s portfolio to provide you that inspiration for the wedding photo shoot.

Take Your Wedding Videos Too!

Wedding videos, similar to wedding photographs, is a common wedding expenditure nowadays. In Singapore, wedding events to many, are a show of status to their relatives, friends, and colleagues. Some couples simply ask for the best wedding items to be included for their wedding because they want to show others that they can afford it.

Some people compete to display the best bridal photography album, best bridal video, the best and most lavishing ballroom, etc. While they may not be wrong to do this (since everyone has got different mindset and views), they should also value the wedding items that they purchase. Apart from showing off, the wedding photographs and videos in particular, do have a significant meaning and symbol to the newly weds. It takes pure talent, hard work, and skills to be able to create perfect bridal videography and photography. Comparing the two items, I would say wedding videography has more significance in my heart. I am more emotionally attached to my wedding video than wedding photographs as the former struck a chord in my heart every time I view it. Memories gush down on me seamlessly whenever I view it, and the same goes for my wife. The value of a wedding video is tremendous.

Wedding videography in Singapore is a great tool to get back together with your spouse. If you and your spouse just had a big quarrel and things look bad for your relationships with each other, you can try to focus the attention on the love you have for each other. The love will cover up all other negativity. Take out your wedding video and view it together. I’m sure you two will understand and give it to each other after viewing the wedding video.

If not, you can take out the wedding video to watch it together sometimes even if everything is fine during a normal day. Things will get lovey-dovey between you two.

A video is the ultimate proof of your love and commitment toward each other, and having a wedding videography Singapore session will therefore subsequently remind you on that. This is a very important object.

Importance Of Hiring A Good Wedding Photography Studio

If you have read two of my previous articles, you will notice that I keep on emphasizing the importance of engaging a good, top-quality, reliable wedding photographer for your wedding photo shoot. In order to take great pictures, a good photographer is the only way to do it. There are no other ways around it.

From my personal experience and the online reviews, this is one bespoke wedding photography studio in Singapore – Grandeur Wedding Studio.

Grandeur Wedding is started by a group of talented wedding photographers and videographers in Singapore in 2015. From my discussion with them, they each had at least 2 years of experience in the wedding photography industry before coming together to form the wedding photography studio. I’m not sure about the rest of them, but I can vouch that Tim, the wedding photographer who took wedding photographs for me for my wedding event, is extremely skillful and knowledgeable on photography.

During the wedding photo shoots, he will ask me and my wife to strike certain poses. When we are on the pose, he will quickly snap away, moving into various positions to take different photographs of various angles of us. I see other photographers thinking for a while before moving into the various positions to take the photographs but I see Tim did not hesitate for even a second before getting into position. As amateur at posing for photographs, I’m really glad Tim is able to take those photographs quickly as I am not so comfortable with posing. After a few seconds, my smile will get awkward and movements stiff.

Moreover, the editing skills and judgement of Tim is superb. Every time I gave Tim an instruction to edit the photograph to be of a certain look, he always deliver beyond my expectations and show me mind-blowing photographs. Sometimes, he acted on his own judgement to veer away from my instruction but I’m okay with that eventually as he proved to me that photographs turned out better with editing in his own way.

I received premium, top quality wedding photographs from Grandeur Wedding Studio and I hope others can get the same experience and satisfaction that I did.

Try Wedding Videography In Singapore Too?

What are the various ways you can approach to document / capture your wedding moments in Singapore?

Photographs and videos (includes wedding cinematography. I can only think of these 2 ways to capture your special wedding moments. Bridal photography definitely is established and demanded by the market way earlier than wedding videography. However, the market is also leaning toward wedding videography now as more and more people are taking it up. Many people in Singapore now see wedding videography (companies like http://www.grandeurweddingstudio.com/ produce great wedding videos) as a great complement to wedding photography for their wedding ceremony. These 2 items are in fact, a necessary wedding expenditure now, much like the diamond ring is seen as the necessary thing to buy as an engagement item.

Taking bridal photographs during wedding (also known as actual day photo shoots) is a norm these days and almost everyone is engaging a wedding photographer to help them take their wedding photographs before or during their wedding. Wedding photographs capture the special moment nicely and you can see and feel the blissfulness in the atmosphere through the photographs.

Taking videos of wedding is another way people use. However, watching a video requires more time than simply looking at the photographs to reminisce on your wedding day. But wedding videos do have their benefits – more details included and you can see the interactions among people and the environment. You can also hear sounds from the video, making the whole process of reminiscing seem more realistic and close to your heart. A higher level to videography is wedding cinematography in Singapore. Wedding cinematography concentrates on producing a story line for the Hollywood-style film. Many exciting sounds effects will be added into the already high quality video. Coupled with hundreds of hours of professional editing, a cinematic film on the wedding will be produced. Lately, there is a craze for wedding cinematography in Singapore. These trends are easily started by watching them in others’ wedding. One will naturally want good things for themselves after verifying the quality with their own eyes.

Gorgeous Wedding Photography

I simply love beautiful wedding photographs! I think they’re amazing because honestly they’re taken usually at the time where a couple is most deeply in love (stereotyping :P)

Look at the above bridal video which showcased many beautiful marriage couple shots.

I think both spouses look so blissful and happy – don’t you wish you will be able to experience that soon? Or perhaps again (if you’re already married)? Just kidding.

Make sure to get your photo shoot by a great wedding photographer in Singapore so as to achieve the happy and ‘real’ effect where emotions are seemingly displayed only through pictures such as in the video above! I’m sure everyone is able to take pictures, especially after the introduction of smart phones. However, to take an artistic photograph capturing the emotions of the target is not easy. Some talented photographers take a year to master their photography skills. There are a lot of photography pointers to take note when taking photographs. I shall not go into that in this post. Sometimes, an experienced bridal photographer in Singapore will go with instinct to take the perfect wedding photographs.

Marriage is once per lifetime (hopefully) and you want to remember it well :) You will want to capture that wedding memories into hard copies and store it away for your viewing pleasure in the future. These wedding photographs got to be very realistic and bring out your emotions and memories the moment you look at them in the future, feeling as if the wedding just took place yesterday. This is only achievable if the wedding photographs are taken by experienced, and skillful bridal photographers in Singapore.

Quality is of the essence when it comes to wedding photography. Do not compromise not having beautiful wedding photographs for a small price reduction. Talented and skillful wedding photographers are not easy to come by.

Amazing Wedding Photographs

Look at some of the most blissful and happy wedding photography shots I have seen on the Internet below!

Don’t these pretty and cute wedding picture 3couples simply look so adorable and cute together?

I would have to say that wedding photography for people staying in Singapore is definitely among the most important photo shoots in their lives. Logically speaking, a wedding photo album is the first photo album in any family. The couple will get together in the first place to form a family. The Singapore wedding photography album will document their loves for each other. While 99% of the newly weds do not have kids when they are married, a 1% of people do have kids when they get married. The kids may be the results of their bonding as they may get intimate before the actual wedding. If not, the kids may be from either side of the newly weds with their ex spouses. Nonetheless, it’s fun to hang out with your spouse and your child to take some time off your daily hustle and take such beautiful wedding memories together – it will only take an hour or so and it will last you a lifetime.

The important thing to take note when taking wedding photo shoot is to keep your mood happy. Do not let any external factors affect your mood during the wedding photo shoot. Your mood will affect how you look at the wedding photo shoot and yes, the photographs will turn out ugly and unsatisfactory. It is important to clear your mind of any stress such as work stress or financial pressure. Think more about each other and your love for each other. You will want to make the wedding photographs look good for future viewing pleasure and remembrance.

Apart from the newly weds, the wedding photographers also need to be professional in order to produce great wedding photographs. Stay tuned to ICan Wedding Photography And Videography if you want to read more posts about Singapore wedding photography.
