The role of flowers in wedding photography could never be overstated. Flowers are one of the most important elements in any type of wedding – be it traditional, outdoor, indoor, and even destination weddings. The delicate blooms not only add a touch of natural beauty but also play a pivotal role in enhancing various aspects of wedding photography.
The sky’s the limit when it comes to wedding decorations. As long as everything goes the way the couple envisions their wedding, decorations can go as grand or as simple as they can be. That being said, your wedding doesn’t have to look like you have a garden fairy turned events designer, with the sheer volume of flowers. The key lies in strategic placement!
In this blog, we will explore the captivating role of flowers in weddings and wedding photography, looking into how they elevate the aesthetic of the venue, serve as props for bridal sessions, and become the perfect addition for photographing intricate wedding details.
1. Elevate the Aesthetic of the Wedding Venue
Flowers have an incredible ability to transform any space into the wedding venue of your dreams. Whether it’s an outdoor ceremony, an intimate indoor affair, or a grand ballroom reception, strategically placed flowers can elevate the aesthetic of the wedding venue to new heights.
From cascading floral arches at the altar, to floral installations in the aisle, to table arrangements, and down to the corsages, boutonnieres, and bouquets, the presence of these floral arrangements add a sense of luxury and sophistication to the overall ambiance. Wedding photographers can leverage these floral backdrops to capture the stunning shots that encapsulate the romance and beauty of the day.
2. Props for Bridal and Creative Sessions
Bridal sessions are a crucial part of wedding photography, providing an opportunity to capture the bride’s beauty and elegance in a more intimate setting, especially during her portrait shoot. Flowers, with their vibrant colours and unique textures, make for perfect props during bridal and creative sessions.
