A lot of my favorite pictures were not ones that we posed for but those that just happened....the one below is one of my favorites

Wow, that picture is so beautiful!! Do you mind if I show it to my photographer as an inspiration pic?
@futuremrsdq: What an awesome photo! The perspective is really interesting; btw I loooove your BM bouquet/dress colors :)
@PitBulLover: I think I have loved every single photo you have posted! Your photog was awesome, but she had good subjects!
Thats what I love about my photographer; shes not posey posey, she takes AMAZING candid shots. My wedding hasnt happend yet, but these are some of the poses you may want to try!
@Ugoob: I love the bottom one! It took me a minute to realize the photos were taken at the same spot instead of digitally rendered!
Your best bet is to find a photog with these kind of portraits in their portfolio. These photos may look easy to replicate but they are not to the untrained pro.
@SnowPeony: Yeah, these were taken in Brooklyn. The houses are so different from the next lol
And I agree w what the other brides say, just go with this kind of Photographer.
Its called Photo Journalistic photography.
I dont think the Photog really recreates anything, they kinda just go with their surroundings and come up with fun ways to take pics.
GOOD LUCK!
@SnowPeony: Not at all - show away! Including the ones below (if you want)
@In the media: wow, thank you! I love my photog(s) - they were so great to work with!
Here are a few more of my favorites




@Ugoob this is not photo journalistic in ANY WAY. 99% of these shots were set up and the photographer created the moment or set up the shot then waited for the moment to happen. The only shot that could be considered PJ was the wedding party walking away. A photo journalistic photographer doesn't set up shots, they merely capture what is in front of them without any intrusion to the subject/s or environment.
@PitBulLover: Thank you! I absolutely LOVE your pictures! You look so beautiful and they have a really great energy.
@PizzutiStudios: agreed. I like some of the posed shots here. But PJ should feel more natural and candid. PJ also tends to let in a little more emotion.
I have to admit, I am an absolute sucker for the classic black & white with the wink.

This was taken while our guests were arriving. They had no idea we were having so much fun upstairs before the ceremony :-)
@bellamargot: lol that's so funny! I wish my venue had an upstairs!
Oh and I LOVE that black and white one! I look goofy when I wink so no cool photo for me. :-(
I loved these candid photos of me and my dad:


I love this series of photos that my photographer caught of my husband trying to hog the cake:

I loved the non-posed (and the posed but this isn't about that) photos from our bubble "send off":


I loved some of the photos that we got of the little ones at our wedding and seriously those just can't be posed. lol Especially my nephew!







I love that my mom and I and my MIL and I played around when he was taking photos of us and he caught those photos:


One of my favorite things was being caught by surprise as I realized that some of the photos had my husband and/or I in them even if it wasn't obvious at first. I think of them as bride/groom background photos. lol



And most of all I love the ones that capture the pure joy and laughter that was shared:







@dodgercpkl: Awwww, the photos with the kiddies are priceless!!!!
My favorite photos (like PitBullLover) were just moments that happened naturally that the photographer captured. Goofing around with the wedding party, walking down a hallway, or a loving peck... IMHO, take a "formal portrait" and then lighten the mood and have the photographer take reaction shots, informal poses, etc!
@dodgercpkl: I LOVE how you are smiling in every single picture! That is awesome!
@Miss Tattoo: Awww Thank you!! I think I've been smiling like that since Anton asked me to marry him over a year ago! lol
@dodgercpkl: Your photos are so beautiful and loving!
@HapaBride: I love the second photo; the silhouettes are so classic.
@cincity75: I adore this photo!
@SnowPeony: Thank you! It was a surprise to find it in our photo proofs! We had no idea our sneaky photographer was taking pictures! Ha! Ha! 
@PitBulLover: Love your photos! The boat pictures and you with your ladies - priceless!

I was wondering if any of you bees have some unique pictures from your wedding day, or pictures you want to replicate for your wedding day? The 'everybody standing in a row' thing just seems a bit overdone to me :/
