Top 2 Fine Art Philadelphia Wedding Photographers for 2024
Page Updated: January 31st, 2024
Would you love to find a fine-art, artistic Philadelphia wedding photographer to document the details of your big day and to complement your unique love story with a creative flair? The Wedding Photojournalist Association can help! Our documentary-style Philadelphia wedding photographers are, first and foremost, photographers — artists, in other words, whose medium is the still photograph. In the Artistic Guild competitions, WPJA members show off their creative talents for digitally enhanced still-lifes and fine-art detail photos.
Quarterly Artistic Guild contests for fine-art Philadelphia wedding photography are held annually, entered and judged separately from the WPJA competitions held during the year. After each contest, we add another collection of award-winning detail images to our wedding photographer’s member profile galleries.
What could be better than the details of your carefully planned event captured by a top Philadelphia fine art wedding photographer? Detail images generally are tighter framed shots on some of the day’s textures, and features, whether as arranged by the photographer or as they were found: dresses, gowns, suits, rings, linens, flowers, bouquets, cake, shoes, or champagne glasses. A collection of tightly cropped faces would likely also be a “details” shot if the surrounding context has been subdued to bring out the image’s artistic impact.
Rylan Earle-Lott, a creative wedding photographer in Philadelphia, captures unique celebrations with a focus on authentic moments. Using a photojournalistic style, Rylan highlights candid connections. Outside of photography, Rylan enjoys exploring different topics and humorously challenging industry standards.
Casey Fatchett is a wedding photographer with nearly two decades of experience, based in the NYC metro area. Drawing inspiration from his background in theater and music, he brings a unique vision to his wedding photography style. His work is characterized by bold designs, graphic elements, and clean lines, along with tight detail shots that capture the beauty of cakes, rings, and dresses, filling the frame.
WPJA contest judges have been recognized by their industry peers, winning top awards as staff picture editors, staff photojournalists, and newsroom mentors while working for these and other leading publications and journalism organizations.
