Tell The Story, Sequence Photos by fHphoto

It is often said a picture is worth a thousand words. So how many words are a few photos worth? Just kidding…

Even though we always try to tell the complete story with just a single picture, sometimes a sequence of shots can achieve even better results.

So how do I choose for this sequence? I chose photos that are similar yet distinctively different in focus, and allow for a continuous flow from one to another. I also make sure they are all edited in the same way.

What does this have to do with Wedding Photography? A wedding photographer can shoot anywhere between 200-2000 photos per wedding and the last thing you want to do is deliver every single photo to the client. We must use our talent to choose and filter out the right number of photos that are not only technically good, but differentiate enough to tell the complete story.

Lighting are 2 Alienbees, 1 with grid for the male model and 1 with umbrella for the female model.
