I like to walk around and take wedding photos. Could I consider

this a "street" photo?

You can consider it Cartie-Brusson style photo.

Thanks for all of the above comments!! It is fun when you throw something up on the wall and it sticks.

This is a great capture and I don't see why it couldn't be called street photography. The high contrast and geometric elements really hold my attention and are well tied in with the people. I particularly like the balance of the white triangle opposite the man's silouette. I'm not sure about the pink area in the sky, and would have liked to see the man's right shoulder better outlined, but these are minor drawbacks in a charming image.

Interesting, I would call this just wedding photography, even if you were out there hunting images, and this scene "crossed" your walking...

 

I'm not sure about the strong sillhouette on the foreground, but for sure its an original composition. I would also like to see the whole dress of the bride. On the other hand, the high contrast is a plus for the aesthetic result.

It hardly looks 'street' since the architectural composition seems to be on equal footing with the pose and character of the figures. Overall it seems as carefully composed as your more consciously 'crafted' images rather than the capture of an instant - after all, the guy in front right doesn't seem to be zooming out of frame (which would be typical) but a weighted harmonic counter to the steel structure. I'm not saying this to diminish the impact of this shot (let alone to challenge you on how you took it) because as a wedding shot this is a dozen times more interesting than the bulk out there. And as a surreal composition, the architecture, the poses, and the bowler hats, make for an intriguing and balanced image with great light and tone. Your other wedding shot "On the outside looking in" has more of a reportage (Bruno Barbey?) feel to it.

This is by far one of the best wedding photo's I've ever seen. There's not one thing I would change. I wish you could be the photographer on for my wedding.

 

No offense to the Picture of the Week now but this should have been.
