But do you wonder what Documentary Wedding Photography is all about? Well, let me break it down for you!

So, imagine your big day unfolding like a magical storybook, captured through the lens of a camera. That’s the essence of our style – often called documentary, reportage, or wedding photo-journalism. We like to think of it as the “fly-on-the-wall” approach, where we are there to document the authentic, unscripted moments that make your day uniquely yours.

As a documentary wedding photographer, we are all about breaking away from the traditional wedding photography. We are on a mission to capture your special day in all its authentic glory – the laughter, the love, and everything in-between. We want to freeze those moments of excitement and even a few nerves, giving you a photographic journey that mirrors the real essence of your day! And we want to create images you never expected to receive. The surprising gems or moments you didn’t know has happened. In short-Documentary wedding photographer tell the story of your wedding from a guests-eye point of view.

For couples who can’t wait to be their guests.

As your go-to documentary wedding photographer, our mission is to blend into the background and let your meticulously planned day shine. No interfering with your schedule – you’ve got it all sorted! We start each wedding with good preparations, chatting to you both weeks before the big day, understanding what is important to YOU, aiming to capture the genuine emotions and the natural flow of the day. It is the challenge we absolutely thrive on. Each wedding is a new adventure, and that excitement is what keeps things fresh and dynamic for us. Now, some might take the easy route, asking the bride to flash a smile on command. But here’s the thing – you will remember that photographer asked you to smile, the photos suddenly have no meaning. But we are all about the real, unposed moments. It’s about waiting, anticipating, and actively seeking those genuine smiles, tears, and laughter. Trust us, it’s totally worth it when you look back at the images and see the authentic joy captured in every frame. The real magic happens in those unplanned, candid moments. You know, the ones where emotions run high, and you’re so caught up in the moment that you forget about the camera. That’s when the most powerful images come to life – the ones that tell a story without saying a word.

“Couldn’t recommend Janina and Jawad anymore. From the beginning it felt like old friends and we felt instantly comfortable. There were phone calls and WhatsApp’s and helping ideas, they were more than just photographers. On the day they were amazing and everyone commented on how they were busy snapping but also just like any other guest.”
