Download or read book Fine Art Wedding Photography written by Jose Villa and published by Amphoto Books. This book was released on 2011-04-05 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many semi-pro and professional wedding photographers are looking to "wake up" their style, stay current, and stimulate business. And today, that means lifestyle photography, also referred to as "fine art wedding photography." Fine art wedding photography isn't just a catchy phrase; it's a modern approach in which design is paramount. Fine art wedding images are more graphic and stylized than traditional wedding photojournalism, as if they were pulled from the pages of a glossy wedding or lifestyle magazine. Acclaimed wedding photographer Jose Villa was a pioneer in fine art wedding photography before it became a trendy buzzword. Here, he shares his secrets for bringing a stylized sense of composition, lighting, posing, and most important, design, to your images, while still keeping them organic and narrative. You’ll learn Jose’s trademark technique of capturing the more natural moment after a pose, and tips for getting images right in-camera to avoid the need for heavy postproduction. Final chapters show you how to integrate design through the delivered product, whether an album or slideshow, and continue nurturing clients after the wedding by expanding to baby and family portraiture. Packed with real-life examples, solid techniques, and stunning images from one of the wedding industry's brightest stars, this book will both educate and inspire photographers seeking to update their work and satisfy a new generation of brides.

Download or read book Dream Weddings written by Neal Urban and published by Amherst Media. This book was released on 2014-04-15 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Neal Urban is known for his unique, award-winning wedding photography. His images have a real energy—saturated colors, dramatic poses, and a real magazine-style, polished look. Images like these don’t happen by chance; there is a high level of skill involved, from the inception of the shot through to the final presentation. In this book, Neal Urban presents 60 of his best images, along with a lighting diagram, setup shot, or screen shot and an alternate image from the event. Readers can approach the book from cover to cover or zero in on specific portraits they might want to emulate with their own clients and focus their attention on the creative process used to create those images. In every one of the 60 two-page spreads, you’ll get insights into the hows and whys behind Urban’s genius. You’ll discover what inspired the image concept, which lighting units and modifiers Urban selected to create the mood in the shot, and how the bride, groom, couple, and other major players in the day’s events were posed to help tell the story of the day. One of the things that sets Urban’s work apart is his HDR—high dynamic range—imaging. The complex approach allows photographers to produce final images contain a much-expanded range of tones, from white to black, than can be captured and reproduced with a “straight” image. As many of the striking images in this book were made with extensive postproduction work, readers will learn more tips and techniques for effective, efficient, artful image-editing than is found in the average book written for wedding photographers. Below written by the author My photography may be contemporary but I also cover the bases of photojournalism and the traditional family portraits. Not only do we provide a service but we also give them an experience of a lifetime. In the portrait session we direct and create moments that last a lifetime.
