Wedding Photo and Video
When planning a wedding, there are many details to plan and choosing a
wedding photo and video service is one of the most important. You want
your memories to last a lifetime and you want them to reflect the once
in a lifetime event in a way you want it remembered.
Choosing a Wedding Photographer
First, start planning early. A popular photographer can be booked a
year or two in advance, especially in prime wedding months. Ask friends
and family for recommendations and search local magazines and
newspapers for ads. For the budget minded, check Craigslist ads and
contact local photography schools for advanced students.
Personality and Style
When interviewing, keep in mind a couple key items when choosing a
wedding service. First, does the wedding photographer make you feel
comfortable? Remember, you may be very stressed on your big day and you
want a person who will be confident and calm in the midst of it all.
Ask to see a portfolio and discuss the style of photography you have in
mind. Choosing a wedding photographer whose style matches your
personality is key. Would you like all formal portraits or someone who
gets in the middle of the dance floor and takes grainy snapshots and
candids? Look at their past wedding albums and let them know which ones
that speak to you most.
Film or Digital
When choosing a wedding photo service, you may want to consider whether
the photographer uses film or digital. The two points where it will
make a difference is whether you would like extremely large prints and
if you think ten years from now someone may want more prints. If you
think you might want prints larger than 16"x20", you should choose a
wedding photographer shooting film for the quality. If you think that
someone may want prints later, you may want someone shooting digital,
as they will be more likely to have the files around longer than they
would keep your negatives. Remember, you are paying for the
photographer's time and a certain number of prints. They generally own
the negatives or files unless you work someone different out.
Video
To get all of the moments, you may want to have a videographer. While
your wedding photographs will capture most moments, wedding videos
often capture the ceremony better as camera flashes are not generally
allowed in churches. When choosing a wedding video service, follow the
same rules in regards to personality and also ask to see samples. The
expense question usually comes down to whether you would like the video
edited after being shoot. The more editing, the more expensive it will
be.
Last, remember it is your day and should be captured how you would like
to remember it. Good luck choosing the perfect wedding photo and video
service.
