While booking on every minute details for your perfect D-Day, not to forget to book on a perfect photographer who can make your wedding picture album as memorable as your wedding! Keep in mind these things you need to confirm before confirming the one.

Style of wedding: Decide what type of wedding you prefer. Do you want to go in for a traditional one or you prefer just candid shots. Also if you are looking for glam photography or fashion style photography.  Once you are done with that, take the next step.

Decide on the kind of services you want: Some couples prefer posed photographs, while few would love to go for candid moments too. First confirm your style. There are few who are good with posed photos while others are good with candid and posed. Once you are confirmed with the style you want, half of your picture is done.

Decide the amount of time you want to spend: Some couples love to go in for a complete movie type three hour shoot, while some may prefer just short clicks. If you don’t want your wedding pictures to be a long one, look for such a photographer, who shall be as per your needs.

Usage of your pictures: Confirm first how you want to use your pictures. Do you want to make it into an album or just want large framed photos? How are you going to use your wedding photos is also one of the necessary thing. If you want to gift your relatives the selected photos by getting them printed on the mugs, jars or any stationary for that matter, make sure you tell your photographer this beforehand.

Interview them:  Ask them about their license ability, insurance, sales tax and also if they keep a back up. Ask any and every question that strikes to your mind. Check on their availability too. Also see if they shoot only weddings or even pre wedding events as well. And do they charge extra, if they do so. See for any discounts or any mixed packages they might offer you.

Communicate: Communication between the two is really important. It should be two sided. After you have finalized the professional, talk to them over the phone. Tell them your imaginations and if possible ask them to sketch out the event.  Ask them if they think that the given idea can work, or do they have anything other in their mind? This can help you understand their mood, their attitude, and also if you have taken the right decision.

Penn it down: Make sure, no matter how much you may feel like trusting them, it’s always better to get things written down. Make an agreement after confirming the photographer. It’s not only safe, but also professional.

Well, that’s all for now. I hope you got the tips on what to look in for while hiring a photographer for any event.

See you soon…

Happy clicking!!!
