For explaining Candid Wedding Photography let me give you the Basic idea of what is 'Candid'.
A candid photo is an un posed photo which the photographer took.
A candid photograph is a photograph that is made either without the subject's knowledge or without their explicit permission, hence they are captured unposed.
Almost all successful photographers in the field of candid photography master the art of making people relax and feel at ease around the camera, they master the art of blending in at parties, of finding acceptance despite an obvious intrusive element - the camera. This is certainly true for most celebrity photographers, such as Raeburn Flerlage.
Equipment for candid photography is typically lightweight, small and unobtrusive rather than big and intimidating.
Candid styles of photography are increasingly becoming popular both in general day to day photography but also in formal photographic situations. Last time I was asked to photograph a wedding the couple actually hired me purely to take paparazzi style shows of them and their guests throughout the day. They had another photographer for the formal shots and gave me the brief of getting a behind the scenes look of the day.
In terms of wedding photography these are the moments which the wedding photographer captured and you were unable to notice the photographer as when he / she pointed the camera at you and made you an integral part of the photograph while capturing the moment. If suddenly, while you are reading this blog post and someone points a camera at you, its a common phenomenon for us that your expression will change and may be you will become more stiff. Candid photography is a means by which a photographer can remain unnoticed and capture your expression and personality in a beautiful way so that you look more natural very unposed and not stiff off course. Depending on the situation in the wedding, the wedding photographer might also click while you were looking at the camera or he may just capture the moment and remain unnoticed.
The emphasis in candid photography is to capture the story and atmosphere from the day, so the viewer has an appreciation of what the wedding was like, rather than a series of pre-determined poses. This term can be mistaken for meaning any photograph that is not posed or formal. Major emphasis is also given to capture the mood of the wedding, the ambiance of the wedding and to show to the audience how the wedding was like rather than having some posed wedding photographs.
