How to choose a good Wedding Photographer

2012-01-12T03:35:00.000-08:00

Where to begin?

When planning a Wedding it’s all to easy to get wrapped up in the fun details that the guests will see, the Wedding dress, the decor, the Wedding cake etc. Many couples don’t consider the Photographer until it’s too late. However the Photographer you choose to capture the moments and the story is one of the most important decisions you can make for your Wedding day. After the flowers have wilted, the cake eaten and the champagne drunk, all that will remain are memories and photographs. You only get one chance to get the photo’s right so be sure you invest in the services of a first class photographer. This is certainly not going to happen if you are relying on friends or family.

Start looking

It can be overwhelming at first. The photographers online, in the book, at Wedding fairs, recommendations. Try to visit as many photographers as possible. It’s all very well having a few good images on line but you need meet and view a photographers albums to get a real essence of their work. Look at their style of work. Is it consistent? Do the pictures tell a story a real story?Does the work capture the emotions of the day?

The photographs shouldn’t be static or lifeless, too contrived or fake. The images should move you in some way. Keep looking for a photographer who speaks to you through their work. How much experience does your photographer have? How do they conduct themselves? A good Wedding photographer will know how to position themselves without been to much of a distraction to the guests. A good Wedding photographer will put you and your guests at ease. He will be able to keep up with the pace of the day. Capturing movement, special moments, using light and composition.

Once you have viewed a few photographers, go with the photographer you really want rather than the one you can afford. If your on a tight budget see if you can get a custom package or a discount. It is better to have a small package from a quality photographer. It’s better to have 10 or 20 first class images rather than say 100 mediocre images. The Wedding photographs whether viewed in an album or framed prints will be viewed for many years to come, possibly handed down through the generations. So make sure you get it right.

Good luck in your search and if you need any more advice please don’t hesitate to contact me.

Images from Vietnam

Although I specialise in Wedding and Portrait Photography I also like to get involved in Fine art & travel photography. It gives me a fresh out look and perspective which in turn can be used as inspiration for my Wedding and Portrait work. Here is a selection of images I took on my travels through Vietnam this year. All of these images and more can be purchased on my web site. Just go to my home page and click on fine art down the left hand side. Please feel free to give me some feed back or comments.
