It’s Not About Poses—It’s About Presence

No one wants to look stiff or forced on their wedding photos. We all want to look like ourselves, feeling the emotions of the day, being in the moment… and having it all captured beautifully. If you’re the kind of couple who wants real, raw, and unposed memories, you’re in the right place.

Photojournalistic wedding photography is all about capturing the moments as they happen. No “look at the camera and smile.” It’s about the way your partner looks at you during the vows, the way your parents hold back happy tears, or how your friends burst out laughing during the speeches.

It’s real. It’s raw. And it’s honest.

How to Get Those Natural Moments

Here are a few things we always suggest to couples who want to keep things natural and effortless:

1. Forget the Camera is There

I know that sounds easier said than done, but that’s where our job comes in. We won’t constantly ask you to pose or redo anything. We want you to just be—talk, laugh, hug, dance. The best moments happen when you’re not thinking about the camera.

2. Stay Close to Each Other

Touch each other. Hold hands. Whisper silly things. When you’re connected, we feel that energy, and it shows in every frame. No fake smiles, just the kind of joy that you can’t rehearse.

3. Move Around

Movement adds life to your photos. Walk, twirl, slow dance. We once had a bride who nervously twirled her dress right before walking down the aisle. That twirl became one of her favorite photos. She didn’t even know we caught it. That’s the magic of motion.

4. Let Your Emotions Show

Don’t hold back your tears or laughter. Whether you’re nervous, excited, or overwhelmed—those are the moments you’ll want to remember. Some of the most moving photos we’ve taken were when couples thought no one was watching.

5. Trust Your Photographer

You don’t need to know your angles or ask us, “Do I look okay?” That’s our job. We’ll be there quietly capturing the best version of your love story, without interrupting the flow of your day.

A Little Story from One of Our Weddings

I remember this couple, Rebecca and Aniket. They didn’t want to feel like models. They told us, “We’re awkward. We’re not really photo people.” And you know what? That’s totally okay.

During their wedding, we simply let them be. They laughed, cried, and danced like no one was watching. At the end of the day, they told us they didn’t even notice we were around most of the time. But when they saw the photos, they cried again.

That’s what candid photography is about. It’s not about perfection. It’s about feeling.

In Conclusion

If you’re the type of couple who just wants to enjoy your day without feeling like you’re in a photoshoot, we get you. We’re here not just to take photos, but to tell your story the way it truly unfolds.

On your wedding day, you won’t need to worry about what to do or how to pose. We’ll take care of that. All you need to do is enjoy every second and we’ll make sure every meaningful moment is beautifully captured.
