Journalistic photos?

Could someone give me some examples of this, or point me to the thread if there already is one. I think I kind of understand what it is...but I wanted to see some examples of it.
Is it for example, close ups of details of the wedding, or an expression on someone's face....please help me

basically most of the pics are candid...they are basically documenting your wedding and telling a story with the pics. Most are spontaneous moments they captured. They will do pics of bp and family but again it wont be the typical standing there perfectly smiling for the camera

Denise Chastain--www.modwedphoto.com

She mostly does photojournalism pics, but she'll also do 'natural' portraits.
AMJA recently used her and her pics were gorgeous.

ETA: She's changed the website (though the old address will get you there) to http://www.modernweddingphotography.tv/
There's a few LIWeddings brides in her portfolio.

Yep thats what it is... I love it because it captures real emotion...people laughing, crying, being silly, etc. And since the day goes by so fast (so I've heard) its nice to be able to relive those special moments every time you look at the pictures. I just think they are so much more full of life than the shots of generic poses.
