Bride Decides To Be Her Own Wedding Photographer And The Result Is Better Than Most Wedding Photos

ADVERTISEMENT

Tallinn-based photographer Liisa Luts and her husband decided to do something unusual for their wedding on August 28th. The couple, who run a small photography and videography company, agreed that Liisa would take their wedding photos, using a mirror when necessary. Everyone was surprised by the result.

“I just felt that I want something different, not those posed beauty shots and not that post-processed glamorous photo gallery,” Luts told PetaPixel. “With all respect to the wedding photographers, I just wanted something more ‘us’…And what could be more real than me taking the photos myself…?”

I am sure. The most wedding photos are horrible. It is very very hard to find a really good wedding photographer. But this photos are wonderful! Really artistic!

Of course it is! Although not all of them. "Liisa would take their wedding photos." Liisa was the bride. If a bride takes pictures of HER wedding, what do you call that?

Better or not, it is original and intimate, suitable for time we are living in. I renmember time when there was no 'wedding photographers' one of the guests would just take a group photo of all the people or just few important ceremony details. Afret all, it's their wedding and they can do whatever they like.

How is this better?It is just good enough and still great way to store their memories, sometimes you do not need "perfect" photos because it tells the story with its "imperfection" and some people value that more...but definitely not so amazing.

It's better than most wedding photos because it's what they wanted. No same old photos and no 6,000.00 bill. And it's WHAT she wanted so that's all that counts. If your hating on them then your just a d**k for thinking your way would be better. So be careful not to be a d**k.

As a professional wedding photographer myself, I think it was a really stupid idea. REALLY stupid. Twenty years from now, are THOSE the photos they're going to show to their children and grandchildren ? If it's true that the attorney who represents himself has a fool for an attorney, then the same is true for these folks. Were they just cheap or wanted to be published on Bored Panda ? Probably both, notwithstanding the foolishness of it. And the photos are c**p to boot; real photographers don't use cell phones or shoot one-handed with amateur gear. ARRRRRRRRGH !

Sorry, these are not 'better than most wedding photgraphers.' Being 'real' is not necessarily good. The exposure and white balance is far off in virtually every one shown. It is possible to be real and spontaneous and actually well exposed and composed so that viewers see through the framae into the reality of the picture.

Tis will mean more to them in later years; and it saved them a ton of money...

These had this "real" feeling about them. Most wedding photos looks fake and "staged" with a ton of after-effects.

I don't think these are very good. My 11 year old could of done better.

I got the usual reaction when looking at the photos of someone I don't know - indifference. Fine for them and their friends, etc. but keep it to yourselves.

ok., but why is he wearing his ring on his right hand!? (Car picture)...couldn't help but notice. Beautiful and humble. Still think it would have been better if someone else took some photos, even a friend.......

I like it. She gets to remember the day the way she experienced it, not the way a photographer saw it.

Loved it! It said what you wanted. I loved the one with the two children. The people behind with smiles showed a happy time.

Not my idea of wedding photos but if that's what they wanted then that's what counts.

As a professional wedding photographer myself, I think it was a really stupid idea. REALLY stupid. Twenty years from now, are THOSE the photos they're going to show to their children and grandchildren ? If it's true that the attorney who represents himself has a fool for an attorney, then the same is true for these folks. Were they just cheap or wanted to be published on Bored Panda ? Probably both, notwithstanding the foolishness of it. And the photos are c**p to boot; real photographers don't use cell phones or shoot one-handed with amateur gear. ARRRRRRRRGH !

As a wedding photographer myself, I think it was a really stupid, insensitive idea. If it's true that an attorney who represents himself has a fool for an attorney, then the same could be said for a photographer. Were they being cheap or just wanted to be seen on Bored Panda ? Probably both, but foolish notwithstanding. ARRRRRGH !
