From landscapes to subject-aware headshots to candid, photojournalistic style portraits, he has discovered that of all his subjects, people continue to be a favorite. When you spend enough time in a foreign place, the exotic becomes more common. When you realize that the shift in perception is just a function of perspective, you begin to find the exotic in that which is normally familiar. This is
where a wedding photographer’s “eye” is developed. The days of posed, contrived and ‘cheesy’ wedding photography are over. Al Tan believes strongly in presenting you- the bride and groom-with a collection of wedding images that capture the true story and spirit of your day. Using a photojournalistic approach, we don’t believe we need to interrupt or control any part of your wedding day. We may step in briefly simply to try to take advantage of an incredible scene or setting. But other than that, we let the story unfold naturally. Many wedding guests say they don’t even remember us being there. If we can capture the most important moments of your wedding celebration without interfering, we have succeeded. If we can present those moments to you from a unique, creative perspective that truly captures the magic, energy and joy of your wedding, then we are thrilled.
