wedding photography is one of the most difficult areas of photography, as a service to a client. for one, there is a bit of chaos behind the scenes, and it is a single person with a vision of how to present the events of that day.
at Kodiak Xyza Photography, we strive to best represent a duality of purposes. one, is to bring a representation of what happens on the day, with a modern approach to casual/natural poses, and the more traditional gathering of the bride and groom through various phases of the day. these photos have to satisfy the client as to the expectations of the day and how they envisioned it.
perhaps more subtle, is to anticipate how to present the wedding photos when viewed at some point in the future. like a favorite book, or movie, the photos in an album will be viewed with an evolving perspective as time passes and events take hold of our lives. thus, it is imperative to present a wide range of emotions that are true to the day, and not just vibrant highlights. thus the idea is to balance the inevitable tug of nostalgia with a deeper emotional call to the people present in that day.
given this perspective on wedding photography, Kodiak Xyza Photography carefully chooses weddings which facilitate this approach to its presentation.
