Finding the Right Wedding Photographer for Your Special Day

Planning your big day is a big deal and finding the right person to document your big day should also be a big deal. Getting married is an event that every bride and groom will cherish for the rest of his or her life. There is a lot of preparation and details that go into planning a wedding including finding the right photographer to capture your day. The memories you take with you from your wedding day can be looked at over and over again through the photographs. As a Vancouver wedding photographer from Purple Rose Photography I have comprised some helpful tips to follow while looking for a wedding photographer or even a portrait photographer.

First, make sure the photographer is willing to meet you at no charge. The consultation is a great way to see if you connect with your photographer. You want to ensure you feel relaxed with your photographer, as the last thing you want is to be uncomfortable having your pictures taken on your big day.

Second, ask your wedding photographer to see their portfolio, this will show you their level of experience and also the main style they use while photographing weddings. Every photographer has their own unique style and you want to make sure you love the photographs they take. You should find out if the wedding photographer is open to suggestion and is willing to take the photographs that you request.

Third, many Vancouver wedding photographers are switching to digital cameras; you should ask your wedding photographer if they will be shooting with film or digital. If film, will you get to keep the negatives? If digital will you get a CD or DVD with digital negatives? A large benefit to having a wedding photographer that will shoot digital is that not only can the photographer easily make touch ups to the photographs, they can also add a variety of effects.

Fourth, do not consider price to be a judgement of the photographer. Just because the photographer is expensive doesn’t necessarily mean that their work is superior to the rest or vice-versa; this is where viewing the photographers portfolio can determine the quality.

As you can see on my site Purple Rose Photography not only do I display some of my work I also have an FAQ, which can help answer some questions even before meeting me. Feel free to use these questions as well, when searching for a wedding photographer. I hope you can use these tips as a foundation to finding the right Vancouver wedding photographer. If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to send me an email or call. Happy planning!
