Images that last with no “expiry dates” attached

August 5, 2009 by admin

A meaningful way of introducing newly wed to their new family members
A meaningful way of introducing newly wed to their new family members

This is the start of a series of classic wedding images I intend to post, pictures I believe that can last forever with no expiry dates tagged, images not overdone with photoshop effects. Though they may not catch the common eye with a SHOCK, and make them crack their heads thinking, “how did he ever do that? what lens? strange effect. he must be really good!” My images are meant to show off as much as possible, the true essence and ambiance of the actual scene captured through my eyes and NOT to show off my equipment or my knowledge in photography gimmicks. I’d rather choose the path of faithfully creating real and honest photography. Well, that’s the direction I’m taking now.

    Current Situation – ALL are madly trying to outdo one another by coming up with new gimmicks and compete in winning awards. We have lost the direction in wedding photojournalism. We have all become too selfish in winning attention for ourselves rather than faithfully capturing and representing one of the most important personal event in our lives! And we all only have that ONE CHANCE for each couple!
