What is “photojournalistic” style photography?
Photojournalism is a spontaneous style of black and white (sometimes color) photography that is popular. Generally, a photojournalistic photographer does not stage or pose any shots but works in the “background” capturing the wedding as it unfolds. The photojournalistic photographer does not “impose” him/herself on the subjects and accepts all of life’s “little imperfections”. That is, the photo journalistic photographer takes all photos as they occur, even when the subject may be striking a less than magnificent pose. Photojournalistic style is well complemented by classical medium format portrait style and couples that choose photojournalism are strongly encouraged to hire another photographer as well.
