The 4C's of Choosing Your Wedding Photographer
Congratulations on your upcoming wedding! You've probably dreamed of this day for years but how will you remember it when it's over? Hiring just any photographer could be one of the worst mistakes you'll ever make. Not all photographers are created equal, some have more experience than others, some have better equipment than others and some have more training than others. Interviewing and selecting the best one for you is difficult but we've created the "4C's of Choosing Your Wedding Photographer" to help guide you through this process.
The first "C" is clarity. When looking through portfolios and albums, check to see how clear the expressions are. Are you able to see details in the photograph? Can you clearly see what emotion the image conveys? Only professional grade lenses will capture the highest clarity for your precious wedding images.
The second "C" is composition. A well-trained eye can capture images that are beautifully composed. Look for signs that the photographer is capable of composing your story in the way in which you've envisioned. Are there feet & arms cut off in the sample books? Too much floor or ceiling space in the samples? Many times what you see in the books is what you get in your album so make sure you're certain this person can compose not only beautiful photographs but also interesting angles, points of emphasis and soft lighting techniques to provide you with the best possible photographs.
The third "C" is creativity. Are the images creative and different from the traditional posed images seen in your parents and grandparents albums? Do they show an element of art and design like magazine ads? Are there options to add bordered prints, sepia prints or hand-coloring into your package? Look for someone who is fun and creative to capture your day in a way that will stand apart from all of your friends albums.
The last "C" is caring. Is your photographer friendly and considerate of you and your fiancés wishes to not see each other before the wedding? Will he or she get along with your friends and family on the wedding day? You'll want to make sure you build rapport with your photographer because many times, the photographer is the one wedding professional you'll spend your entire day with. During your wedding, he or she will be present at your most private moments. In addition to having experience and knowing what to expect, a caring professional will seek to guide you through your special occasion without running your entire day.
