Multiple Elements

    Every wedding has hundreds of elements that make it unique.  What makes a photo unique is combining these elements in a unique way.  I personally find photos that combine elements of a wedding to be more dynamic and appealing to the eye.  Of course this is subjective and doesn't always apply. 

    Two areas that I find really helpful to photograph using multiple elements are the bouquet and the cake.  I find it very hard to take a dynamic photo of just the cake alone.  I have the same dificulty with just a bouquet by itself.  Usually I will photograph the bouquet with the bride blurred out in the background.  When I photographer the cake I try to have another key element of the wedding out of focus in the back.

    To all you aspiring wedding photographers out there try combining multiple key elements of the wedding into some of your photographs.

    In this case I photographed the cake and included the head table in the background in order to add another dimension to the photo.
