Why Your Wedding Photos Should Feel Like Your Favorite Song
May 20, 2025 | By: Emily Lauren Photography – Fairytale Wedding Photographer in Virginia
Your wedding day isn’t just a moment in time, it’s a melody. A collection of notes that, when played back, should bring you right back to the way it felt when you said “I do.” That’s what I believe your wedding photos should be: a visual version of your favorite song.
Whether your love feels like a slow burning acoustic ballad or a wild rock anthem, your photos should echo you; your rhythm, your harmony, your story.
Because Love Isn’t Posed. It’s Played.
The most unforgettable songs aren’t perfect... they’re raw, real, and full of soul. That’s how I photograph weddings: with heart. I don’t just want to document the dress or the décor. I want to capture:
The way your hand trembles before the first look
The silent tears during the vows
The way you both laugh like you’re the only two people in the world
Your wedding album should sing with emotion. It should sound like you, even without a single word.
Every Couple Has a Soundtrack
Some couples are dreamy and delicate, others are bold and a little chaotic in the best way. My job is to find your rhythm and turn it into art.
You might be:
- A Fleetwood Mac kind of love : mystical, vintage, and full of magic
- A Johnny & June vibe : passionate, soulful, and a little rock & roll
- Or maybe Taylor Swift’s enchanted ballad: soft, fairytale, and filled with longing
Your love has a tempo. Let’s photograph it that way.
I Want You to Feel Something When You Look Back
Ten years from now, when you flip through your album, I want it to hit you like the opening note of your favorite track. I want it to stop you mid-scroll, mid-sentence, mid-life, and make you feel it all over again.
Because your wedding wasn’t just a day, it was a whole symphony. And every glance, every tear, every kiss… it deserves to be remembered like a chorus that never fades.
Let’s Make Art Together
If you’re planning a wedding that’s more storybook than staged, one that’s filled with emotion, music, movement, and meaning, I’d be honored to photograph it.
Let’s create wedding photos that feel like your favorite song. The one you’ll keep playing for the rest of your life.
