This first guide to posing, lighting, and sensitively capturing portraits of same-sex couples equips semi-pro and professional wedding photographers to enter the exciting new LGBT wedding photography market. With 13 countries currently recognizing same-sex partnerships, the market for LGBT weddings is poised for explosive growth, offering great opportunity for today's wedding photographers. But capturing portraits in this new market requires a novel approach to posing/ The New Art of Capturing Love shatters the 'old standards' of wedding and engagement photography, sharing easy-to-implement poses that can be applied to any couple (and wedding party), no matter their orientation, to create lasting memories.
