It's our belief that responsibility for successful documentary photography lies with the photographer, not the subject. As documentary photographers we are watchful enough to predict actions and interpret reactions. We remain at the same time sensitive to individual privacy and always, always, to peripheral action.
Sentiment is attached to the reality of a moment... the afterwards 'remembering' of the truth in it. Posing or constructing 'a moment' can't impact in this same way, it's just a photographer's interpretation of an event rather than a representation of the event in truth. Photographed well, genuine moments are the most valuable subject matter. Nothing else needed.
At the moment, we are loving the crispy Winter colours blended with cloud-diffused light, bare tree brances and the greenest of green everywhere...
You can find our work in a few new places of late... soon to feature in the Wedding Style Guide, shortlisted for Bride of the Month on the Weddings SA site as well as shortlisting as Finalists (photography) in Cosmopolitan Magazine's Bride of the Year competition (the lovely Kimberley Adams). Go and vote for her!
