Things that you should have in mind before hiring a photographer for your special days:
- Photographers have all different in styles. Make sure to do a research first by requesting or checking out their portfolios online before hiring;
- The photographer is not your wedding planner - The point here is, don’t try to micromanage his work during D-day. However, don’t be shy to tell him/her what kind of pictures you would like to make sure that he takes as, in the end, it is your photo album and memories you want to capture. You can also check on Pinterest some shots and ideas to give him/her instead of expecting him or her to read your mind;
- The wedding photographer should be respected - Don't ignore the wedding photographer’s schedule, don't forget to make sure that as a member of your staff, he is also fed. If you wish, you can even decide to plan a seat for them at both the ceremony and reception as they will not be in a different room while things are happening without being captured;
- Trust the photographers when they talk about the lightning, special effects and other photography details. If you want amazing pictures, schedule the most appropriate time for the ceremony and the reception, particularly if you wish for an outdoor wedding. It will make an entire difference in the quality of the pictures. Unless your aim is to have all of your pictures retouched with photoshop effects!
- Relax, Breathe, and Have Fun - the photographer won't do miracles as he can not put a beautiful smile in your face. Enjoy your party and have fun. Forget that the photographer is there and enjoy your day. You will discover that the pictures will be amazingly beautiful, genuine and will reflect the joy of the day.
