At your wedding you would expect a professional chef to cook your meal, a trained musician to entertain you, and a competent baker to create you your wedding cake. Photographers too must be professional, and have years of experience in shooting events, Bat-Mitzvahs, quinces, confirmations, anniversaries, corporate parties, and most importantly weddings. The reason for this is because photographing weddings is hard, and takes years to perfect. From choosing the rights angles to following the natural flow of the event, from staying out of the way to getting the “must” shots done, from dealing with stressed out clients to dealing with malfunctioning equipment, and much more. It is a tough job, but we truly love it. There is nothing else we would rather do.
A professional photographer must have if not hundreds then at least dozens of weddings that he or she shot as a lead photographer, a handful of references, and a personality and the vision that agrees with you. In addition to that a true pro will have all the right photo and video equipment with just-in-case backups, and procedures in place that will properly record, transmit and safeguard your photographs. It pays to go with an accomplished photographer and know that you are in the hands of a professional.
As long as we all agree that having a skilled photographer or/and videographer at your wedding is as important of a decision as picking the perfect wedding dress or selecting the right menu, let us talk about money. You are paying not only for the hours that the photographer spends shooting the wedding, but mostly for many many hours the photographer spends editing the pictures after the event. “Cheap” and “budget” wedding photographers will not spend the amount of hours needed to make the photographs look their best. Good photographers will – their reputation is at stake with every single wedding. We have to defend our medium-to-high prices.
Let us help you determine the right amount of coverage hours, most optimal combination of photographers, videographers, travels involved and many other factors that will help you plan your budget and save you some headache. Talk to us today about your event.
