When I started in photography, I priced myself cheaper to get more experience. We all have to start somewhere! BUT, if the photography is THE most important to you on your wedding day, you might want to keep in mind that cheap photography could bring on the following: .
The photos are not exactly your style because the photographer is focused on their portfolio rather than your story (resulting in cell phone photos being more meaningful to you than the professionals). .
The quality of your photos, which is influenced by our gear, which is PRICEY (ONE of my lenses is $3000) and it’s why when you buy a professional camera from the store for $1200 the images don’t look exactly the same as your photographers (grainy, a little blurry, color is weird). .
You may lose some or ALL of your photos. When I was first starting out, my inexperience and lack of equipment lost me half of the images of a wedding. I had to call the bride crying and refund her all the money. Five years later, it happened again but I had the images backed up and a recovery system so know one was the wiser and no one was missing their photos.
