If you’re asking yourself, what the difference between a wedding studio photographer and wedding photojournalist, this may help. Both types of photography require technical skills and a creativity. The difference lies in the approach to creating an image. A wedding photojournalist will not do anything to alter the moment, they will act as an observer, like a fly on the wall. Capturing emotion, action and the important moments of the day, without altering them, is the key. Of course that doesn’t mean you can’t take bridal or family portraits, just use good judgment when presenting them. You won’t get any portraits with backdrops or traditional images.
