When it comes to wedding photography, many Brides have a hard time knowing where to start. After all, there is a lot to consider when deciding how to document your wedding day. Do you want full or partial coverage? What style of photography are you looking for? Do you want just prints, digital images or a wedding album from your wedding day?
Our job as photographers is to answer all of the questions that you may have and then explain everything we can offer you and finally make everything as easy as possible for you to understand and to make informed decisions about.
To help you get started, we developed a list of a few things to help you with “Choosing your Wedding Photographer”. I hope that this helps take a little of the stress out of your decision making!
Choosing your Photographer
- When meeting with your prospective wedding photographer, ask to view their portfolio not just the online stuff ask to see some albums.
- I suggest meeting with your photographer at least twice before your wedding day. First at an initial consultation to see who they are, what they have to offer, pricing/packages and answer any other questions that you may have. You will be able to tell right away if this person will be a good fit for you and your family and if you’re comfortable working and talking with them. The second meeting should be an engagement session. This everyone gets more familiar with one another and you will an idea of how they work and they will get an idea of how to make you comfortable. As a Bride and Groom on your wedding day, you will be more relaxed in front of the camera if you both know what the other is expecting to happen.
- Does the photographer’s style match the vision of how you would like your wedding portraits to look?
- Do not compromise when it comes to your wedding photography. You work so hard, spend so much time and effort to make your wedding look and feel exactly the way you want it. It’s not worth it to go cheap on photography, remember there are no do over’s!
Now look over our portfolio and decide if we may be a good fit to set up a consultation so we can chat about your wedding day. If you think so, give us a call at 812-626-1186.
