Say Yes: 8 Things to Consider when Hiring a Wedding Photographer



The wedding day is the time of the year for all couples longing for unity with blessing. A lot of preparations are done starting from choosing the location, motif, wedding gowns and suits, people involved, budget, receptions, and most importantly the wedding photographer.

Choosing the right photographer for your wedding doesn’t need to be complicated, but all the time it is a complicated process. You need to make sure that your standards and criteria set for every photo taken will record the best moments of your wedding.

So, to make your anticipated day more beautiful and memorable, you may go through with the things listed below on how you can choose the best wedding photographer where photos are of best angles, right emotions, perfect moments.

Ideology
Photography is described as an art of practice in processing and taking photographs. Philosophy is described as beliefs or values. Hence, philosophy in photography is defined as the ideas and views that revolves around when processing photographs.

That said, when you choose a photographer for your momentous event, select someone who is passionate about what he or she is doing. Someone who believes that every moment is valuable and worth saving. A photographer with good philosophy or ideology can quickly take pictures with best emotions and angles leaving you with no regrets.

Comfort
In a series of choosing a pool of possible photographers that you may consider, narrow down your list to people who are familiar to you. Choose the person with great ideology about photography and someone you feel you are most comfortable with.

Once you have narrowed down your choices, try to set up a meeting with them in person then scrutinize them properly. Out of this set of photographers that you have chosen, you should pick the best whom you like the most.

You should also look for a photographer that has a vision about your style and the wedding’s motif. For example, if you fancy wearing a skeleton watch during your photoshoots, your photographer should have no objections to it. Another example is when your photographer is enthusiastic about your motifs by giving out ideas and suggestions to you.

Lighting Situation
The most critical element to produce the best photograph is the use and presence of proper lighting. It is the main ingredient in delivering high-quality images that you will surely like and keep forever.

The easiest way to shoot a wedding is when it is daytime with the rites happening outdoors which produces natural light. Your photographer will surely embrace the lighting that nature has given which can lead to an excellent capture.

On the other hand, if your wedding and reception happens at night, then you have to make sure that your photographer is skilled in lighting. Ask them how they would handle the lights in that situation similar to their portfolio if they have experienced the same shoot before.

Recommendations and Reviews
Whoever you are regardless of your chosen field of endeavor, everyone has its strengths and weaknesses so as photographers. Professional photographers even get lowlights when it comes to their outputs.

The best way to decide if that photographer is the best is to check and ask about their weakness. Of course, you expect that they will be producing high-quality outputs, but it is also best if you wonder about their weaknesses and reflect if you can live with them.

You can chat with their previous clients to ask how they are working when they also shoot their wedding or ask their peers. All the time choosing a photographer that can deliver late photos but amazingly done and suits your taste is better than early and on time yet does not meet your expectations.

Photographer’s Price and Offer
Always be careful in choosing a photographer’s package. Avoid any extended shoots as they may charge you with extra fees. Things that will be used later on like for post-processing can be bought after.

Post-process
To come up with the desired photos and cope with modern photography, most of these happen in post-processing. Make sure that by the time you review the photographer’s portfolio, images should not come out in actual the way you see them in pictures.

Pictures that had undergone the post-process period should include cleanliness that means it’s true to life. Light and airy which includes the right amount of light and film emulation mean to mimic the feel of the film and the look of the image.

Observe a full Wedding
No matter how thoroughly you scrutinize every photographer’s portfolio, it is always evident that they will only give you their best shots.

It is a must that you attend and observe a full wedding, so you have an idea of how photographers work and capture images while the subjects are in motion. It will help you discover the quality of their work and influence you of your choice.

Delivery timeframe
Don’t forget to ask the delivery timeframe of how fast can your photographer accomplish their job. Mostly, a full gallery, including photos and videos, and even the raw stills should be ready within 3 weeks or even longer, if it’s peak season. Of course, legit photographers and studios will always try to contact their customers as soon as the gallery is ready.

Takeaway
A wedding is one of the happiest events a person can ever experience in their whole life. These events often have great memories, which is why it’s important to get a photographer that’s on page with what you like. It’s a wonderful idea that you get comfortable with each other and build rapport. Trial shoots are also a great idea so you can come up with the best plans and everything will go smoothly.

Remember, weddings should be events that should be cherished for all the right reasons. Such an event calls for a perfect celebration. Avoid any mishaps by not hiring amateurs. Instead, go for professional photographers and legitimate photo studios who can and will deliver their promises to you.
