Candid's



I just think natural candids are so nice and can be taken at the oddest times.  For example, the above picture was taken without the bride realizing while she was having the back of her dress tied up.  It's so natural and elegant yet un-posed and just "As-is".  


Here's another great example.  The lighting is directional from camera left and highlights his hands around her waist, but was taken un-posed during their first dance.  They weren't aware this picture was being taken.  I think a lot of times people see the really good pictures presented on a photographers website and think "Oh, that must have been posed" but in reality it would be a lot more difficult to stop everything and pose such a shot.  Getting it natural looks a ton better, more realistic and simply nicer.
