Why A Wedding Photographer In Singapore Needs A Distinct Style

By Froilan Gauss


It is easy to photograph matrimonial ceremonies. Even the novices in wedding photography can attest to this. What is difficult for a wedding photographer in Singapore, however, is to create a sense of style -- a craft that he can call his own.

The challenge therefore for Singapore wedding photographers, especially the novices, is how they would create coherent and distinct styles. Learning to adopt ideas and being able to read photographs and decode them into their core photographic elements are just among the things done by great wedding photographers.

Indeed, skilled wedding photographers differ from amateurs in their ability to adopt and develop photographic principles. The latter merely copy ideas, and this will not help in generating more demand for the photographer's service.

The need for a personal, recognizable style is also what continues to inspire every wedding photographer in Singapore. People naturally become sentimental with regard to their photos. It's also one of the reasons why couples are ready to spend a considerable amount of money on wedding photographers.

So what constitutes a good photographic style? While it may garner several responses from photographers themselves, an eloquent style comes from a strong sense of individuality, a sense of timing, a keen eye for design and composition as well as a sense of color and form.

The photographer's ability to have complementing or contrasting backdrops using even ordinary places is also a key to achieving a distinct photographic style. It's not only the glitch and glamour that wedding photos must display. What makes pictures compelling is the ability to capture the love that exists between two people even if everything around them is mundane.

In addition, the ability to use the natural light is crucial for one to achieve quality photos. Because natural light has the power to evoke emotions, it can make photographs expressive. It also makes photographs simple but awe-inspiring that it can stand the test of time.

The life span of pictures is an important consideration for both wedding photographers and bridal couples. The simpler the photo effects are, the more it can appear as if the wedding had taken place just recently.
