Choose a Wedding Photographer The photos taken at your wedding will be cherished beyond your lifetime and will be part of the great heritage of your children and their children. One of the many important investments you will make for your wedding day will be the wedding photography. Most brides choose to use a professional photographer to take the pictures of their wedding day. Choosing that person carefully will make a big difference in the end result. Make sure that the person who will be creating your photos is a person who can relate well to you and your unique personality. He or she should be interested in the groom and his family, as well, and be flexible to work with the different family situations that may arise. Visit several photographers to determine Take note • The most treasured photos are always the candid shots, so choose a photographer who enjoys a good wedding and can help you enjoy the moment. • Once you have selected your photographer, communicate, communicate, and communicate. • Whether your hair is elegantly swept up or flowing casually, make sure you are looking your best. • Pay special attention to your make-up, but keep colors soft. • Enjoy! It’s your Wedding.

the one who seems to mesh best with you and your groom‘s ideas and personalities. Cost is always a consideration in any wedding. A good professional photographer will be very open about basic costs, package prices, what the package will cover, and how much any extras cost. Take your notebook, and write the prices down for each photographer‘s work. Then, you can compare your findings at a later date. Talk to friends who have used the photographer before, and ask if they would recommend him or her. It is a good idea to see a complete set
of sample bridal pictures made by the photographer you are considering. This way, you are not just seeing the best shots of many different weddings, but instead are seeing the entire set of shots — both posed and candid. Think the wedding budget is too tight to allow for professional photographs? Cut down the amounts budgeted for some other area to make way for the photos; this is a decision that will never be regretted. Many a bride has been disappointed because a particular photo opportunity has been missed. By keeping the channels of communication open between you and your photographer, you will be assured of getting the photos that you want. Discuss in detail, prior to the wedding, the specific photographs you want, and be certain to listen and consider suggestions from the photographer for shots you may wish to add. Discuss posed as well
Check list for perfect wedding photos • The person who will be creating your photos should be a person who can relate well to both you and your groom. • Visit several photographers before selecting one. as candid photo opportunities, and this is the best time to ask to what extent he or she is willing to take extra shots, such as Cousin Ben and his daughters from New York. Remember, flexibility is important. The best photographs are taken of people when they are relaxed, happy, and having a good time. If your photographer is comfortable with weddings and is enjoying being there, the spirit of enjoyment will spill over to you and your groom. Your expressions will be happy and relaxed, and you will look more like yourself than if you are stiff, posed, and hurrying to quickly get it done. The key here is to enjoy your day!! Enjoy the people at your wedding! Have fun while your pictures are being taken, and they will have great expression! They will become those fun photos that you love looking at for many years, over and over. Be sure to set aside time enough for the official photographs to be taken, and make every effort to be on time. The one thing that even the best of photographers cannot control is your time, and it can make or break your photos if there is not enough time for taking the best shots. It is also difficult to create wonderful photos of you and your wedding party if it is done at the same time as the reception or the dinner. Your guests will expect you (and justifiably so) to spend that time enjoying their company, as they have made the effort to honor you with their presence. Many brides and grooms choose
to have the wedding party photos taken before the wedding to help cut down on time allowed to get to the reception. A good photographer will arrange to have only the bride and groom photographed first and privately so the look of the groom‘s face when he sees his bride in her wedding gown for the first time can be captured. Along with the traditional wedding shots taken at the reception, a photographer will schedule candid photos during the reception and the dinner. (You know those fun snapshots that illustrate what is really happening!)
• Look at each photographer’s full wedding photo sessions rather than just a few best picks. • Ask those you trust for recommendations. • A photographer should be open about all costs. • Remember that talent, style, and dependability are the bottom line.
Your wedding day will not be an ordinary day; it calls for some extraordinary measures to insure its success and enjoyment. Hairstyles are definitely a personal choice, but be sure to have your hair looking its very best. You might choose to pull it up for an elegant look. Or, perhaps you will choose to wear it loose and more casual. For exceptional photos, good make-up is essential. For even the bride with simple tastes, a good make-up base will even out the skin tones and smooth any facial blemishes. A bit of special attention to eyes and lips will also show up well in photographs. Just remember — soft colors, not harsh. Whatever your colors, whatever your style, wherever you have your wedding celebration, you can always remember your wedding day with wonderful photographs to chronicle the very special memories.
