Event photography

Event photography, another genre of photography capturing events such as weddings, birthday parties, casual parties, conferences and other mega events. As we know photography of any genre requires quality of light, similarly event photography also falls in the same category. The core of those particular photographs are the colors. Different varieties of bright colors makes the image more attractive and pleasing.

In event photography, the angle at which the image is captured greatly effects the image overall. Though it is not easy to move the camera in any direction or angle you want especially when capturing an opening ceremony or even birthday parties. You have to deal with your equipment and your angle because the same action would not be repeated by the subjects again and again. Event photography mostly contain images such as side pose, front pose, group photo, etc. You cannot bring abstraction in your photography and make it look like a distorted image. The image must be balanced, well composed and bringing out the expressions of your subject in that image makes it worth it. Backside poses are often captured during event photography.



Colors bring life in your photography. Similarly as I said before, capturing Expressions of the subjects completes the image. All the laughs, cheering, smiles, happiness, etc. becomes a memory saved inside that rectangular sheet and watching these images brings out all the memories that took place long time ago. Event photography do not need the posing and pausing. It only requires a good occasion and the spark that hides inside you and shines when you photograph.
