    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 :/

    @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!

    @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.

    @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.

    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 want unique wedding pictures to replicate? :  wedding IMG 0653I want unique wedding pictures to replicate? :  wedding IMG 0655

    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:

    I want unique wedding pictures to replicate? :  wedding IMG 1362

    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!
