Here is a very important area of your wedding planning, your wedding photographer.
 
You need to have your questions ready before you go to see the photographer.  You may have one already chosen because they did such a good job of a friend’s or close family member’s wedding.  Always make your own choice, what suited them may not suit you.
 
Most expensive is not always best and cheapest is not always worst.
 
If you visit a company that have several wedding photographers, then make sure you speak to the one who will be assigned to your wedding.  While you may get along fine with the person you see at the studio, this may not be so with the actual photographer.  Feeling comfortable with your photographer and having trust that they will provide you with wonderful memories is so very important, so choose carefully.
 
You should decide firstly what type of wedding memories you want your photographs to provide.
These are questions you should ask yourself
Do you want
 
  • Color
  • Black & White
  • A mixture
  • Sepia
  • Formal poses
  • Outside/inside settings
  • Formal Album
  • Just the proofs
  • Negatives
  • A video
 
Now here are a few questions you should ask the photographer
 
  • What type of photos color, black & white, sepia?
  • Do they do a mixture of formal and candid?
  • Is there an album and scanning to CD Rom?
  • Do they have a standard wedding package and what is included?
  • Do they have other packages and what do you get with each package?
  • Can you see their portfolio?
  • Is it possible to see some actual proofs of weddings they have done?
  • Can you meet with the person who will be taking your photos?
  • Do they have references?
  • What type of cameras and equipment and do they have back up equipment?
  • Do they do retouching of the photos for blemishes?
  • Are the proofs included in the package or do they offer purchase of the proofs?
  • How long will the photographer be at the ceremony and reception and is a meal required?
  • Is there a contract provided with all the details, including if the photographer assigned is not able to attend what happens and who will notify you about the new arrangements?
  • What forms and timing of payments are required?
  • Do they have a dress code for their photographers?
 
 
You will be sure to think of other questions, add them to your list.
 
If you would like to have a video of your special day, then while you are asking the questions, find out if they have a wedding videographer or have one they work with. 
 
This is a specialized field too so you will need to find an expert.
 
Your wedding photographer is such a very important part of your day, they will be responsible for your wonderful memories .
