You are planning your dream wedding, putting extensive thought and effort into every detail. It is going to be a day to remember for the rest of your life, and before you know it, it will be over. The great thing is that years from the wedding, you will have the moments, emotions, and memories captured by your photo team. Hiring a photographer is at the top of the list for your wedding day. Your wedding photos will be with you forever. They can be brought out anytime to relive your day and of course, your future children will relish looking at their parent’s wedding pictures. If you are getting married at a resort or venue where they offer most everything, they probably have a list of photographers who have worked there in the past. The benefit of hiring a photographer that has worked at your venue is that you can see full weddings captured by that photographer at your venue, the different shots, and places they have taken photos. Your photographer will know the venue, the layout, the best places to go for those intimate shots of just the two of you, they will know where to capture the best shots for any group photos, or when you enter for your reception. If your wedding is taking place at a beach, a house, the woods, etc., you will need to get referrals from friends, check websites, and then check out the work of the photographer. Plan on hiring your photographer at least eight months to one year in advance, especially during these times when postponed weddings are back to planning. Budgeting can run from $1000 to $5000 40
