The Nikon European Wedding Collective with the Nikon D850
A wedding ceremony is one of the most important things a couple will experience together and photographs of the day will be one of their most treasured keepsakes. As a result, it takes an incredibly talented photographer to be able to capture these once-in-a-lifetime moments.
A collection of wedding photographs can tell a story – from exchanging rings to the first dance – and couples increasingly want to tell their stories in unique ways.
Enter The Nikon European Wedding Collective – a team of some of the best wedding photographers and bloggers from across Europe, handpicked by Nikon, to reveal the latest wedding trends and photography styles from the continent.
For their first task, Nikon challenged The Collective to creatively capture on the Nikon D850 some of the best and unique wedding traditions from their own countries.
