How To Choose Great Wedding Photographers
Synka | Aug 25, 2009 | 0 comments
Picking the right wedding photographer in Hampshire is essential to a successful wedding. These photographs will last forever, even once the leftover cake has been eaten and the flowers have been pressed. Have a list of what you are looking for before you meet the wedding photographer. These guidelines will help you know if a wedding photographer is a good pick for you.
Before booking a wedding photographer set up a meeting with them and look at their portfolio; never book on the phone. The portfolio will help you see what kind of work they do compared to what you want. Talking with them will help them know what you want and help you understand what kind of work they do. It might be helpful to invite another friend or family member to meet the wedding photographer as well. Talk to them about what you are looking for and they can help you see anything you might be missing. Do you want formal photographs or casual ones? Maybe you want a mix of both, but you must have an idea before the meeting. Know the groups you want photographed, including photographs that might not include the wedding party or family. Are all your old work friends coming who you haven’t seen since you left? Do you want a photograph of only your cousins together? These are all pictures to keep in mind.
When looking at the photos, try to imagine yourself in the photographs. If these were one your wall, would you be happy? Variety is key. Look for shots far away and close up. Are all the photos far away? Check the edges and background in the photographs and make sure the set ups are clean even. Take in examples of photographs you like and talk to the photographer about their ideas.
Ask the wedding photographer for their credentials and how long the have been doing wedding photography. Find out if the wedding photographer is professionally qualified by looking for the letters LBIPP, ABIPP or FBIPP after their name. Ask about the unexpected. How will they handle your photographs if it snows? Are you okay with their ideas? Check to see if your wedding photographer has Professional Indemnity insurance cover in the event that your photos need to be retaken.
