Event Photography

“You don’t make a photograph just with a camera. You bring to the act of photography all the pictures you have seen, the books you have read, the music you have heard, the people you have loved.” ― Ansel Adams

Coming from a Street Photography background, I developed a heightened sense of anticipation while taking candid photos, which is useful for both wedding Photography and Event Photography. Knowing when to capture the shot!

My thoughts on photography is probably best explained by legendary photographer and civil rights campaigner Steve Schapiro, whose views and general outlook is very smilier to my own. https://youtu.be/Ldff5C5LXBQ

When telling a story (that’s what social photography is all about, after all), it’s important to capture – and, crucially, keep hold of – the viewer’s attention. This is achieved by having a diverse range of engaging pictures on show.

Nobody wants to look at a set of pictures all shot from the same angle on the same lens, again and again – it would be boring! As a photographer, it’s important for you to know when to engage directly with your subjects and when to step back and photograph them as they act naturally.
