Traditional Wedding Photography involves taking pictures of the participants of the wedding by way of setting up pre-defined ideas. The poses are set up or taken as simple images of the events. The photographer will instruct you to sit in a particular place, stand against a specific backdrop or pose in group pictures.

We recommend a mix of both worlds. Here’s a guide on the differences between Traditional Photography and Candid Photography that will help you find the right mix.

Imagine a grandmother beaming with pride, a groom catching a glimpse of a bride in-between ceremonies, a child laughing or a mother silently crying tears of joy. The prime focus is on unobtrusively capturing as many touching and poignant moments as possible. These moments shall remain etched in the hearts of the family and even after years when you will run through the old album, the pictures and moments will come alive. You would recognise this style of photography when you look at the wedding album of your parents. The wedding pictures taken by a traditional photographer will appear staged. Such pictures fail to connect with the moment that passed by.

Candid Photography – Cost

The cost of wedding photography varies with the skill of the wedding photography team. The cost is entirely dependent on several factors like the number of days/events, team size, deliverables, travel etc

Charges for candid photography services from freelance wedding photographers start from Rs.15,000/- onward. A team of professionals may charge more for the sheer skill and experience they will bring with them.

Interestingly, candid photography is not dependent on gear and can be shot at a Photo Studio on rent in Gurgaon. But you need quality and reliable gear so that you concentrate on the moments and not the gear. The following camera details are an added advantage for candid pictures.

  1. Fast Autofocus: The camera you choose should have fast and reliable autofocus simple to ensure that the right moment comes out sharp and in focus.
  2. High ISO Performance: Wedding photographers are always shooting in challenging conditions ( read low light ). So, choosing a camera with good high iso performance is a must.
  3. Fast Lenses: You should buy the lenses which are fast. Fast lenses are the ones with wide aperture ie. F1.4, 1.8, 2.8.
