Welcome to the This is Reportage blog, where we'll be sharing lots and lots of documentary wedding photography goodness. Check back frequently for the latest features…
This is Now
It’s time for another round-up of some of the things our TiR photographers have been seeing and shooting over the past month or so! We love these pieces; it’s just so fascinating to not only see all the different things being captured, from weddings all over the world – but also how these are being captured, too, with every single photographer having their own different style, their own way of seeing and capturing.
This is Alison Bounce – Collection Six Judge
Honoured to reveal the second of our five judges for Collection Six: The fantastic Alison Bounce! Alison is based in France and shoots all over the world, bringing her distinctive style and superb eye(s) for moments with her; very exciting to have Alison on our judging panel for our upcoming Collection of Reportage and Story Awards!
This is Steven Rooney – Collection Six Judge
Honoured to announce the first of our five judges for Collection Six: The brilliant Steven Rooney (UK). An incredibly creative and talented photographer, Steven manages to see – and capture – things that so many of us just can’t even comprehend; it’s really exciting to have him casting his eyes over Collection Six for us!
Collection Five Winners Announced
Ah, there’s nothing quite like Awards Announcement Day! We’re absolutely thrilled to be able to announce the winners of Collection Five, superbly curated this time by the amazing Steven Herrschaft, Christelle Rall, Lauren Brimhall, Sam Docker and The Framers.
This blog post contains just a few of our winners; check out the entire winning Collection over here.
Once again, it was incredibly tough to get an Award, with just the top 3.6% of submissions becoming a Reportage Award (for great individual captures), and the top 3.5% getting a Story Award (for a series of 15 – 20 images from a single wedding, representing world-class coverage, creativity, consistency and storytelling).
This Is How: ‘Trinity’ by Menino Conhece Menina
Delighted to have the fantastic Portugal-based duo Menino Conhece Menina on the site today to tell us how they captured this brilliant moment that won a Reportage Award back in Collection Four. I really love this piece; great tips and sentiments about going with the flow, curiosity as a wedding photographer’s great tool, composition and more. One of my favourite quotes, too: “If nothing is going on where I am, that means I’m in the wrong place…”. A brilliant piece, thanks so much, both!
