Finding The Right Wedding Photographer Is Similar To Rhythmic Breathing

By Scott Murray


They say a picture is worth a thousand words and this is especially true for capturing moments on your big day. Good wedding photography will ensure that those who were not able to attend your wedding will be able to experience the special moments from this day as though they were there. Also, that you will be able to remember, what is arguably the most important day of your life, for years to come and so now is the time for rhythmic breathing.

Before deciding on a photographer, do some research, take a look at example, see what you like and decide if you want your photos to match the theme of your wedding (if you have one). Perhaps you would like the services of a videographer to create movie magic of your special day.

Now that you know what you would like, it is imperative that you make an informed decision be aware of average costs and packages on offer. Do not be shy to use your community, ask friends, have a look on social media. You do not want to make any hasty decisions with this one.

Now the real work can be begin, send out emails get in touch with some prospects. Meeting with the photographer is important. You must hire someone with a good eye, make a request to see a portfolio, focus on what you expect to feel and see when looking at your photos. The customer is the king in this in this instance as they need to be happy at all times.

The interview process is important in that you get to know the photographer an see if you get along. It has been proven that photographers perform better when there is a positive relationship between them and the subject. Keep this in mind throughout the entire process. The occasion is already extremely expensive so no need to add to it by adding stress.

Once you have decided on a photographer, take a look at what they have on offer. In essence what each package includes. Compare these to your budget and what you want for your special day. Consider when your wedding celebrations commence, most packages often cover pre-ceremony events as well as the reception.

Make sure you are aware of what you are signing up for. Often signing a contract with a photographer means you sign away the rights of those photographs over to them. Meaning it them will become their intellectual property which they can use as they see fit. There may be other legal restrictions on those photographs such as being unable to share those images on social media.

Then, before you sign any deal, check your rights. Most contracts state that the digital cameraman owns the rights to all the photos taken at the wedding. These include the ones taken of you. This means that the cameraman can use them in a promotional way and even in ads. Legal restrictions might also mean that you cannot just post the digital proofs the photographer sends to you onto media sharing platforms. Once you have settled this vital aspect of your wedding planning, you can breathe a sigh of relief knowing all of the other facets of the wedding which you have worked so hard to coordinate, will be captured with style and finesse and the money spent on your big day will be money well spent.
