Wedding photographer Sittard: Wedding Photos of a Dutch-German Couple at Stadbroekermolen
A wedding is made up of the small and unplanned moments that give a ceremony its uniqueness.
Photographic Moment As an aspiring second shooter, I learned at this wedding that a documentary wedding photographer will miss certain moments. The photo that never existed outside my mind showed the expression of a wedding guest who caught a water puddle over himself. Rain had collected in a dimple on the umbrella. When the water load became too much, it flowed over the edge and onto his head. His eyes widened, and the muscles in his neck tensed because the water was cold. Laughter took away any remaining formality from the wedding guests. Before I could take a photo, the moment had passed.
Wedding Reportage Planning The schedule of the wedding day was largely adhered to thanks to wedding planners Michelle and Mandy from FBLS weddings. '10:00 Hair & Makeup at Home, 12:00 Bride picked up by Father' was noted. The father-daughter moment, although planned, was a glorious sight. Not planned was the look between father and mother as they approached each other. Two loving parents looking at each other in what could best be described as an eclectic mix of pride and joy with a hint of nostalgia for their little girl who suddenly was big enough to be a bride.
Wedding Guests This look exposed pure joy as they saw the groom at the wedding venue. "You don't lose a daughter or sister, but you gain a son or brother." clichés keep coming up because they are true. The German maid of honor, learning the language of her new "brother," gave a Dutch speech for the bridal couple.
The converted barn where the wedding ceremony took place was romantic, much like the wedding dress. The wedding hall is located in a renovated monument with glazing in the roof, allowing daylight to flood into the space. As the capricious weather gods alternated rain clouds and sunshine in the sky, the light in the interior changed from dark and gray at the beginning of the ceremony to a radiant finale during the vows. Apparently, the radiant couple and the guests brought them joy.
Beautiful Gifts Guests making an unplanned round of congratulations. A just-the-two-of-us photoshoot, which, due to rain showers, took place not in the French garden of Stadbroekermolen but in the stylish lounge of the Merici Hotel. An Australian couple dancing enthusiastically to "Down Under" and getting the whole dance floor swinging under the loud cheers of the couple. A wedding is like life, full of small and unplanned moments. Beautiful for the wedding album.
