Wedding photography from the heart - Joe Buissink

A behind-the-scenes look at master wedding photographer Joe Buissink's acclaimed style


"There's no such thing as a perfect image-only a perfect moment," says Joe Buissink, one of American Photo's Top 10 Wedding Photographers in the World. In Wedding Photography from the Heart , the premier photographer gives us an inside look at how he captures the feeling of a couple's wedding, seeing the moments from their perspectives and hearts.

Here, for the first time, are more than 150 of his stunning images-including many from celebrity weddings-accompanied by creative techniques, inspiration, and unparalleled advice. Joe brings us into his creative process, emphasizing "learning to see"-training yourself to anticipate the moments that matter-and, most important, developing a relationship of complete trust with your clients.

His goal is not necessarily to take technically perfect photos, but to capture the right moments, transforming intimate, emotional memories into timeless images.

A must-have for all professional, semipro, and aspiring wedding photographers-as well as brides and grooms looking for inspiration- Wedding Photography from the Heart reveals how to create wedding photographs that will, even decades later, capture the joy of a couple's wedding day.
