When it comes to your wedding photos, you want something that will look just as beautiful and meaningful decades from now as it does today. While trends in wedding photography styles come and go—moody tones, airy pastel washes, or dramatic filters—there’s one approach that will never go out of style: true-to-color editing.

At Jared and Quinn Photo and Film, we believe your photos should represent the reality of your day: the vibrant greens of your bouquet, the warm glow of sunset during your vows, and the exact shade of the dress you spent months choosing. True-to-color editing ensures your photos are timeless, authentic, and every bit as vivid as your memories.

What Is True-to-Color Editing?

True-to-color editing emphasizes accurate, balanced colors that closely mirror how things looked in real life. It enhances natural tones without distorting them, creating images that feel genuine and personal. Rather than leaning into heavy filters or dramatic changes, true-to-color editing highlights the beauty of your day as it happened.

Why True-to-Color Is Timeless

1. It Preserves the Real Emotion of the Day

Your wedding is full of real, unscripted moments: the first look, the way your partner’s face lights up as you walk down the aisle, the laughter during the speeches. True-to-color editing enhances those moments without overshadowing them. When you look back at your photos in 10, 20, or even 50 years, you’ll feel the same joy because the images remain authentic.

2. It Matches Every Season and Style

Whether you’re getting married in a lush summer garden, against the moody backdrop of a fall mountain range, or under sparkling winter lights, true-to-color editing complements every setting. It brings out the rich hues of seasonal flowers, the glow of natural light, and the crisp detail of your surroundings.

3. It Withstands Fads and Trends

Just like shoulder pads and neon leotards have their moment in fashion (and then fade away), heavily stylized photo edits can feel dated over time. True-to-color photography offers a timeless aesthetic that never feels out of place. It’s a classic choice for couples who want their photos to look stunning for generations.

True-to-Color Meets Film Nostalgia

At Jared and Quinn, we’ve taken true-to-color editing a step further by incorporating a subtle nod to vintage film photography. This slight film-inspired touch adds a soft, nostalgic warmth to your images, giving them an artistic edge while still feeling modern. It’s the perfect blend of timeless and unique.

Why It Matters to Us (and You!)

We’ve worked with countless couples who tell us their biggest fear is that their photos won’t feel like them. Maybe they’ve seen wedding albums with overly dark or washed-out tones that feel impersonal, or photos where the editing distracts from the moment itself. True-to-color editing puts your story front and center.

It’s not just about how the photos look; it’s about how they make you feel. When your photos reflect the true colors of your day, you’re transported back to the sounds, smells, and emotions of those moments. You can see the exact green of the bouquet your florist perfected, the rosy glow of your cheeks after dancing, and the golden light as the sun set on your vows.

What to Consider When Choosing a Wedding Photographer

When deciding on a photography style, it’s important to ask yourself a few key questions:

• Do you want your photos to feel like a true representation of your day?
• Are you drawn to timeless aesthetics over fleeting trends?
• Do you prefer natural tones that highlight genuine emotion?

If the answer is yes, true-to-color editing might be exactly what you’re looking for.
