Wedding photography trends

See what some of the world's renowned wedding photographers say about this year's trends.

Vanessa Joy

From what I see, wedding trends are leaning for finding more and more unique ways to decorate and celebrate two people in love. It’s made photographing so much fun!

Hannah L

I see the trend going towards an even more personal touch with people incorporating unique details into their weddings. So, if a couple is into spirituality, they would include crystals or other spiritual details into the wedding.

Kate Hopewell-Smith

Unplugged ceremonies – asking guests to put their devices away and being in the moment. I’ve also seen an increase in couples that want handmade wedding albums. People are realizing that having digitals are essential, but that they also want to enjoy their images long term in a physical album.

Sandra Åberg

Bridal couples want their weddings to be unique and personal. This leads to strong lifestyle documentary wedding photography and less posing or staging. At least my clients want both: they want genuine emotions yet artistically framed.

Anna Fowler

I think that beauty shots of the bride are becoming more important, and that
dresses are less fitted than before. Therefore, more movement is required in the images, to show off the design of the dress. I also feel that weddings are becoming more relaxed.

Two Mann Studios

Honestly, we don’t know, because we don’t really care about trends. Trendy photos can often be eye candy, but it’s the soul in the images that make them timeless.
