160 Documentary Wedding Photos From 2024

A Year in Review

Philadelphia Wedding Photographers

Thousand of photos were delivered in 2024, but today we’re sharing 160 documentary wedding photos from 2024! This year was incredible! It was filled with so many incredible weddings and wonderful couples! We took on almost 30 weddings, changed our entire delivery process to include prints, and photographed a lot more film. Narrowing everything down to just 160 photos from weddings in 2024 is impossible, but these are just a few of our favorite mostly candid and unposed photographs from the year. We fell in love with our work more than ever before and we are so excited to see what 2025 holds!

Our work shifted more and more into documentary-style photography than ever before. We focused on capturing as many real moments over posed imagery as possibnle. We implemented more 35mm film and medium format film into our portfolio this year and will be shooting much more of that in 2024. We are very drawn to black and white imagery. You’ll see a lot of photos in black and white below because we believe it preserves timeless moments drawing your eye to the emotion present in the photo rather than distracting you from color, decor, and other elements of the scene.

We were inspired by a photography book by John Dolan called The Perfect Imperfect which breaks his work into 3 parts: Preparation, Unification, and Celebration. We decided to adopt this same structure to share our favorite wedding photographs from 2024.
