Choosing a wedding photographer

Use Your Eyes and Ears

Examine the photographer's work carefully. Here are some of the things to look for:

 

  • Are the specimen albums each made up of a single wedding and not just a selection of "best pictures" put together for the purpose?
  • Has the photographer a recent wedding to show you?
  • Does the album tell the story of the wedding day fully, or does it just contain a series of similar pictures?
  • Is there a good mix of portraits, groups and story-telling pictures?
  • Are the groups tidy, with everybody looking happily at the camera?
  • Do the prints show detail in the faces and dresses, and has the photographer avoided showing distracting background details? 

Remember to examine all the pictures!
