Choosing a wedding photographer can be one of the toughest choices you need to make in regards to your wedding. These will be the remaining, tangible memories you will have from your wedding day. These will be what you sit down and show your grand children one day. So how do you ensure you choose the right photographer?
Many times over, price seems to be the deciding factor in whether or not the photographer is right for you, but this is not always the best factor to base your decision on. Your wedding memories will be captured through the eyes, heart and talent of your wedding photographer… so remember the old adage, "You get what you pay for".
A wedding is one of the most intimate things you will ever go through in life, so intimacy can be an important factor in choosing your photographer. Are you comfortable having them with you all day in your intimate space? Does their personality gel with yours?
It is also important you are getting someone with experience who can handle anything that is thrown at them on the day. No two weddings are the same, so your photographer needs to be confident enough not to faulter if something unexpected happens. Will they be able to capture every moment? Weddings are so fast paced it is not always possible to restate something if they miss a moment.
What products do they offer? Do they offer professional quality albums, prints on archival papers, canvases? Its not always easy to judge a photographer's work on a website or Facebook, so be sure to go to their studio and view their albums and products, so you can see the finished product you will be receiving.
Another important factor, does their style work with yours? Not all photographer's work is the same. Many will have different processing styles and different shooting styles. So see as much of their work as possible to see how you feel about their style.
And lastly, have fun with your photographer! When you've picked the right one, it will be a rewarding and enjoyable experience for everyone!.
