If you’ve recently gotten engaged, Congratulations! There are probably a thousand things on your mind. One of which is hiring a wedding photographer for your special day.

Since your wedding pictures will be treasured for generations to come, it is important to choose the right photographer

We have put together a few Do’s and Don’ts, to hire the perfect photographer 

Make sure you talk with the actual photographer face to face. Don’t book anybody without meeting them!

It is important to feel comfortable with your photographer. It will go a long way in getting the perfect pictures. You will be spending most of the day with this person, it is important that you vibe with them.

Ask to see your photographers work, a full wedding. Don’t just look at a few pictures.

Photography is an art, look through their previous work for the photographer’s creative composition. Did they capture the unexpected moments? If the photographer is only showing you a few pictures, you are probably seeing the best of their best. You want to get an idea of how they are going to handle the entire day or days

Make sure you look for those ‘In Between’ moments, not just portraits.

We all love those traditional, posed wedding pictures of the happy couple, their family and friends. But the images that tend to be the most meaningful are the ones that captured the ‘In Between’ moments. The personality and love of your guests. Don’t just look at the portraits or posed moments. They can give you a false impression of what your pictures will look like

Look for creativity and quality, don’t be fooled by fancy edits. 

Take your time when you look through a photographers work. Look for interesting lighting and angles, and make sure the love and romance for each other shines through. Look past any trendy filters or edits. Remember this is how your engagement and wedding will be remembered for generations to come.

A professional photographer focuses on each moment with a keen awareness.  The art of observation is key to any type of photography.  In the whirl of activity on the wedding day, the couple might miss many special moments. It’s the small moments, the wedding couple will have and cherish them, forever.  The small moments hold the details.  The details hold the memory of the moment.
