Wedding Styles

 

There are three types of wedding photographers:

  • Traditional
  • Traditional photographers capture the day with a hands-on style.  Traditional photographers are classically trained to create the best posing and lighting.  Traditional photographers will give you the most elegant images with which to remember those great moments of your wedding day.  They will also capture all the normal candids at your wedding and reception.

  • Photojournalist
  • Photojournalists are more of a hands-off "capture what happens".  Anyone with an "auto focus, auto exposure digital camera" can claim to be a photojournalist.  But too often they do NOT have the training to arrange large groups or to light a bridal couple properly.   Generally they must shoot 600 to 1800 images to capture a "few" hundred "good ones".  This editing time can generally drive up the cost of this type of photography.  If you hire a photojournalist that charges less than $1,700, you probably will  not like your "once-in-a-lifetime" wedding images. 

    There are several very good photojournalists in the Dayton area but their starting price is above what many brides would like to pay.

    Steve Hutchison, one of Dayton's premier photojournalists, is now associated with Childers Photography.  A great photojournalist with the Childers Photography's affordable pricing.

  • Contemporary Artists
  • Contemporary photographers are the best of both worlds.  They provide just enough hands-on posing to capture the most elegant images of your special day, while preserving the spontaneity of the candid moments.  The contemporary artist photographers also have the technical training to light your images with precision and pose your groups with elegant flowing lines.  

The photographers of Childers Photography are Contemporary Artists. 


With the recent addition of Steve Hutchison, Childers Photography can now provide the best of Contemporary Artistry or Photojournalistic styles.  Both styles at very affordable pricing.
