Top 5 Questions Every Bride Should Ask Their Wedding Photographer

When it comes to planning a wedding, choosing the right photographer is a crucial decision. After all, photographs capture the cherished memories that will last a lifetime. For brides-to-be, navigating the world of wedding photography can be overwhelming, and filled with questions and uncertainties. To help ease the process, here are the top five questions brides commonly have when searching for a wedding photographer, along with my answers:

What style of photography do you specialize in? My style is described as true to color, with vibrant images that are captured through a warm, unobtrusive, documentary-style approach which brings back the feelings of the authentic and memorable moments from your wedding day. Every photographer has a unique style, whether it's traditional, photojournalistic, artistic, or a blend of various approaches. It's essential to find a photographer whose style aligns with your vision for capturing your special day. Take the time to review their portfolio to ensure their aesthetic matches your preferences.

What is included in your wedding photography packages? I offer three different wedding packages as well as micro weddings and elopements. Every package can be tweaked to fit what you need for your wedding day. You can read a bit more about my starting packages here.

Do you have experience shooting weddings at our venue? Familiarity and experience with the wedding venue can be advantageous for a photographer, but it is not necessary. Most venues are designed with lighting and beauty in mind. I make sure to take plenty of time to scope out the best spots. I can always join you on a walk-through of the venue before the wedding day as well.

What is your approach to capturing candid moments? It’s pretty much my jam. In getting to know you before the wedding I learn all about what is and who is most important to you. After the big moments, I take a step back and just observe and those are when the true candid moments are captured.

Can we see a full wedding gallery? Yes of course! Asking to see a full wedding gallery will give you a more comprehensive understanding of my capabilities and you’ll be able to see a wedding day from start to finish.

By asking these essential questions, you can feel confident in your decision when selecting a photographer to capture the precious moments of your wedding day. Trust your instincts and you will find the perfect match for your special day.
