The plus side of this style is that you end up with some great professional images of your family and loved ones. You probably don't want to rely too heavily on formal portraiture however, or you will miss out on the energy, passion and raw emotion surrounding your wedding. Most couples want to make sure to include some photojournalistic photography in their wedding albums alongside the formal photos.
As I have stated before we tend to mix all of these three styles. We also try and create a hybrid of them, taking the formal and adding a little twist to them. We will always make sure to take the traditional pose but then maybe play with it. This is all depends on the photographer 'reading' the couple. We try and know what our couple's personalities are like and work from that perspective out!
Here are some examples of traditional photography plus some of our hybrid style:
The next few are the hybrid images: a mixture of formals adding
a little whimsy.

This is very interesting. As I shared in your earlier post, in my country (I think), I've got accustomed to seeing formal pics where everybody has to be smiling and at their best pose possible.
I like images 15 and 16 most of all. That's how I wish to be captured in camera someday :)
Among the hybrids, I truly enjoyed the jump shot. It's the first time I saw people in their wedding suits doing such. Lovely!
I noticed that they all seem pretty relaxed. Are they unrehearsed? They truly look wonderful.
I like the mixture. It would be fun looking at them in the albums .
Elegant, chic and fun!
Love the whimsical ones, Jim!
Jim! It's nice to see you back. I really love all of the images, but it's refreshing to see the whimsical pics. I'm so used to seeing wedding pictures look so staged. It's nice to see people actually having some fun at and after a weddings. Hugs dear!
Jim I loved the last lot. Funny and zany.
