  • Résumé: "Honeymoon tour means nothing without photography" After viewing Wedding Through Camera Eyes, one has the sense that Korean weddings are held in order for the couples involved to create a fantasy of their relationship in video and in carefully constructed photo albums. Korean visual anthropologist, Kijung Lee, talks with three different couples and their professional wedding photographers, using the visual documentation of the event as a vehicle to facilitate the discussion. There are three stages to creating the complete wedding album. The first stage is the "pre-wedding" documentation which allows the couple, with the help of the photographer's "Tricks - of - the - trade", to stage a story-book relationship with all the romance of a television soap opera. Emotions are staged as well as the scene. The photographer is eager to share his knowledge and how hemanipulates the photos and his subjects in order to get the desired effects. The second phase is the actual wedding which is also elaborately documented with the photographer acting as stage director. In the case of the wedding we see here, there were 2 ceremonies, a traditional Korean style event followed by a westernized version with the bride in a flowing white gown. Lastly is the honeymoon. Couples pile into tour buses and for 2 days they are photographed as the bus lets the couples out at predetermined sites known for their popularity as back drops for staging the honeymoon couples relationship. In interviews it is clear how important the creation of these visual records are to the couples involved. With the collaboration of the professional wedding photographers, ordinary people turn themselves into the heroes and heroines they imagine themselves to be.
