This shift has led to a rise in documentary photography, capturing natural moments and candid emotions.” – Sophie Sharpe from LOOKsharpe Photography. “Paparazzi-style evening portraits are a trend we’ll see a lot of this year. Having the option to show a couple’s more playful side, using the venue’s assets for indoors as well as outdoors, is something many photographers will be adding to their repertoire. This also ties in perfectly with the editorial style detail shots and nods towards the ‘Mob Wife’ fashion trend that's been circling the internet recently.” – Rachel Ovenden from Rachel Ovenden Photography. “I can see analogue photography making a comeback in the upcoming seasons.” – Janina Brocklesby from Reportage Studios. www.reportage-studios.com
