Canadian wedding photographers Renaissance Studios are proponents of the art of super photoshopped, contrived and fantastical wedding and engagement shots.
These are extremely trendy.
Shawn van Daele from the studio shared some insights with MMM: "We're definitely seeing a LOT more brides and grooms looking for uniquely personal photos of the "most important day of their lives." Something that takes the typical documentary coverage a little bit further and truly brings out their personality, sense of humor and personal tastes."
Good grief: "The old "mom and pop" style of photos don't hold the same appeal for the generation of couples who are being married in 2011."
How do they find the time to get married is my question. Aren't they too busy planning to sit in bottles and hang from motel signs for an actual wedding ceremony?

This is bizarre… the worst wedding photos I’ve seen had the bride and groom hovering above a swimming pool. She looked like a hippo. The rest of her photos were not any better either.
I think it’s quite cute! Definitely have seen worse.
These pale in comparison to those Russian ones. These I can understand. Those made me scared for humanity.
No, shit. Those Russian ones give me nightmares! Leave these idiots for long enough and they’d soon graduate to that level of stoopid.
