Picking a photographer can be a tricky task. Unlike most things on your list of to-do’s, selecting a photographer requires much faith. It’s not like selecting a menu or a cake designer where you can rely on your senses to carry you through. Picking the right person requires a lot of research because let’s face it, you won’t know what you’re going to get until you see the final product!

Some questions you need to ask yourself before you zero down on a photographer-
- What do you want out of the day?
- Do you want someone who will shoot more in a documentary style, capturing moments as they happen?
- A family portrait is more important or a shot that captures the magical moment of you two in a particular light?

Next, is to sort out a budget. Now that you have a style in mind, you can do your research and see who fits the bill. Compare packages and see what’s included. Does the photographer come with a second shooter? How many hours does it include and what are the fees for any extras? Also consider how long it takes for you to get your prints or digital copies back

You always want to know the post production details. Can you get prints or albums made on your own or will you need to buy the rights? Pay very close attention to the contract terms relating to post productions and retaining of rights. So once the cost and other research is done, next thing you need to know is if you want a pre-wedding shoot from the same guys you are hiring for your wedding, or the best, discuss a package that includes a pre wedding shoot, capturing moments of the couple in outdoor locations that also describes your love best.
