Selecting the Right Wedding Photographer

By Shawn Smith


Think about this, your big day is approaching. One that you have spent numerous months, maybe even years counting down. Your partner and you have been diligent in your planning. You've got the best spot in town for the celebration, the best caterer and even the best cake designer in the area. One area that you and your partner are fretting about is the selection of your wedding photographer.

How important is the photographer to your marriage? I suggest to you that it is critical. The job the wedding photographer plays is essential in capturing the moment and essence of that special day. Because of this, selecting the proper wedding photographer is critical. There are numerous aspects that you must consider before going on to make that final choice.

Price

Obviously this is a major factor. The amount a photographer can charge can vary enormously. Some who've been in the game long enough can charge above $10,000 for your wedding day and subsequent wedding album. So you really need to communicate and meet with a considerable number of photographers to ensure you get a rough indication of what you will need to pay. The cheapest will never be the best, however the costliest may not be the absolute best. So just get the range of costs first.

Style

I think this aspect is a very critical one and should dictate what price you're content to pay. The style, color, the atmosphere captured really needs to reflect you as a couple. There is no point paying a lot if the photos you receive don't reflect who you are as a couple. Your personality needs to come thru. If you are a fun loving couple, this should be reflected in the kinds of shots that are being used.

So in the end, combine both price and style to find the best professional photographer that will give you the most value.
