By Don Wong


When you talk about wedding photography these days, you will notice that these progressed far beyond the usual stiffly posed images of a a groom and a bride in their finery, while wearing fading smiles. When you ask a contemporary wedding photographer what they want to capture when it comes to these images, particularly those who specialize in journalistic style pictures, they'll tell you that emotions, natural gestures and the personalities of the couple are the usual answer. There was a time when wedding pictures were often relegated to old albums and shoe boxes that carry memorabilia people only look at every once in a while. These days however, wedding pictures can now be considered art pieces and may even be worthy of a space in an art gallery gallery.

Packages for wedding photography usually include the pre-wedding photo shoot. This option allows you to be as unique as you want with your themes, settings, props, and costumes. It is the job of a wedding photographer to "weave" it all together and tell your love story using the camera as the medium.

Pre-wedding photographs can be simple or intricate depending on the couple's preference. Size really shouldn't matter. What matters most for a Creative wedding photographer is to present the relationship and the couple's distinct characters. Many interesting and unique pre-wedding photographs have become viral sensations because the subjects' unique and authentic characteristics are captured well in the pictures. So, what can you do to make your pre-wedding photos one-of-a-kind and interesting?

How do you create amazing pre-wedding images that are original and remarkable? First, you need to acknowledge that you are indeed one-of-a-kind. If you are fun loving, you need to embrace this and show it, just like the funny but tastefully done zombie-inspired pre-wedding photo shoot that went popular in social networking sites awhile back. The couple's pre-wedding photographer was able to create a series of quiet picnic shots that was soon invaded by a brain-craving zombie. This set of images was actually featured in news sites around the world and people loved the sense of fun and innovativeness of the idea.

Then, get creative with your setting, props, and costume. A couple going for a gothic romance theme can decide to have their photo shoot in a cemetery. On the other hand, a lot of couples choose settings like beaches and gardens for an elegant yet casual look.

The success of a pre-wedding photo shoot often depends on the skills and talents of your creative wedding photographer. The click of the camera in the right hands can produce amazing images of you and your better half which can definitely be something you and your family can enjoy for a long time.
