Unforgettable Wedding Photos: Candid vs. Posed Photography

Ever wondered about the secret sauce behind unforgettable wedding photos? The answer lies in the tug of war between shot list and candid photography. We walk you through this intricate conversation, with our special guest, destination wedding photographer and educator, Kelley Williams. Her expertise and practical insights on balancing both styles promises to leave you with plenty of food for thought.

As we unpick the delicate fabric of wedding photography, we reveal how the photographer's approach—be it adhering to a shot list or exploring the boundaries of creativity—can shape the outcome. The episode explores the diversity and richness that can be achieved with candid shots, but also acknowledges the satisfaction a well-executed shot list can bring. Beyond this, we emphasize the magic that clear communication can conjure. We discuss how discussing expectations, planning the day's timeline effectively, and allowing enough time for those special, unscripted moments can elevate your album from good to great.

We round off our discussion by underlining the importance of building a genuine connection with your photographer. After all, the more comfortable and authentic you are, the more your photos will reflect that. We also delve into the potential of Pinterest boards as a tool for communicating your vision and wrap up with tips on nurturing your photographer relationship. And of course, we couldn't forget the power of social media shoutouts and reviews. So tune in as we navigate the nuances of wedding photography with our incredible guest, Kelley Williams, and equip you with the knowledge to make your wedding photos a true reflection of your special day.
