Every couple is unique – so it’s completely natural that every wedding is special in its own way. From the flowers to the colors and to the wedding menu, every single element of the Big Day is supposed to mirror you, your relationship, and the things you like.

Your wedding photographer should not only do this, but they should also be able to capture the things that represent you the most.

How do you choose the right photographer for your particular needs? We have some tips for you – so read on and find out more.

Analyze the different photography styles out there. Wedding photography is so diverse and varied these days! From the classic photos to photo-journalistic, artistic, and even high-fashion styles, there’s something for every couple and every wedding. Getting familiar with these styles will allow you to find someone who’s really on the same aesthetic page as you are. Even more, it will allow you to speak the same language as your photographer – which will eventually help you communicate better with them.

Read the reviews, but keep in mind that everyone’s different. There’s no such thing as a “one size fits all” photographer. Read reviews to get a clear idea of who your photographer is and how they work, as well as the how they leave an impression on the people they work with. But don’t hire someone just because everyone else Your wedding is yours, and trends shouldn’t necessarily dictate everything about this special event in your life.

Talk about the technicalities. How many photos will they shoot? Will they edit the photos – and, if so, how many of them will be edited? What happens if they fall sick on your wedding day? Yes, your contract with your wedding photographer may not be the most interesting morning read – but it is extremely important that you know all the details and ask all the questions before you sign on the dotted line. This way, you will not have to face any kind of (unpleasant) surprises on your wedding day!
