#414 In this episode of the Beginner Photography Podcast I chat
with celebrity wedding photographer John Dolan who shares his
unique approach to capturing the full story and emotions of a
wedding. John reminds us that photography is about more than just
obsessing over small details, it's about capturing the broad
narrative and moments that truly matter. As he takes us on a
journey through his experiences and insights, we learn the
importance of letting go and embracing the natural flow of
weddings, trusting our instincts to capture authentic moments.
John's passion for tailoring his work to a distinct clientele
encourages us to find our own form of photography and break free
from industry expectations.
THE BIG IDEAS
Authenticity over Perfection: Let go of industry pressures to
shoot ‘trendy’ or technically flawless photos—real, meaningful
images resonate the most.
Be a Storyteller: Focus on capturing the full narrative of
moments you photograph—look for connections, emotions, and
interactions, not just picture-perfect poses.
Narrow Your Audience: Trying to please everyone dilutes your
vision. Seek out people who appreciate your unique style, and
focus on creating for them.
Trust Yourself: Learning to trust your instincts and respond
to what’s really happening, rather than forcing poses or moments,
leads to more compelling images.
