Ask the Photographer: Will you be shooting my wedding?

1 Comment

We have had the pleasure of meeting with couples that whip out the old “What to ask your photographer” lists found on line. But what we find time and time again is that 90% of the time, the couple will ask the lists questions, but not know the answers.

Many couples, to some degree have been affected by the ongoing economic turbulence. However, preserving your wedding memories does not have to be an afterthought because of budgetary constraints. You can have a wedding photographed without spending a fortune. You also do not have to settle for a “weekend warrior” or a less than reputable company to capture your wedding memories. If your budget does not allow for a full photography package, my initial advice is to secure a photographer or a studio which offers just full day coverage with a proof CD or High Resolution DVD of all the images.
