For me, a wedding day must be photographed discreetly and with intelligence. If a photographer were to dictate proceedings and force you into the same poses you’ve seen everywhere else, I believe it would completely compromise this unscripted day in your life with what that person thinks all weddings should look like. Take this image below. Fiona’s grandfather had handmade an extraordinary amount of raspberry jam for her wedding day as a gift for each guest, but unfortunately he wasn’t well enough to make the journey. Instead, they made time to visit him and have their own personal celebration. I feel the gesture and effort of visiting and involving him even more in the day, on the actual wedding day, speaks enormously of the occasion and the people.
