Art & Weddings
Since I first discovered street photography I started asking myself where the limits lie between artistic photography and documental photography. Now that my professional work is inseparably connected with documenting people and their important life moments, I think about it even more.
Can we, as wedding photographers, also identify as artists?
Or is it our duty to honestly show the reality and withdraw ourselves from interpretation and judgment? Is it even possible to separate those two processes?
And finally, how big our role as chroniclers is in writing collective memory for our society?
I have picked some of my photographs that may or may not be considered wedding photography. I hope this to become an invitation to a broader discussion.
