Mark Skeet is a wedding photographer and shares some tips to consider when you’re selecting the person to cover your wedding.
- Do your research – look at lots of photographers’ work – whose images speak to you?
- Meet 2 or 3 – seek to look at complete albums and galleries, most will only show their best work on the web. Consistently good results are the key.
- Do you like the presentation and design of the albums/art that the photographer shows you?
- Will you have to handle your guests’ orders or does the photographer have capability to handle this direct with those guests who wish to purchase prints?
- Who do you get on with? You will spend most of the most important day of your life around your photographer better make sure you feel you can get on with them. Whose personality gels best with yours?
- What’s your budget? The photographs are your family’s first heirloom and the only thing that remains after the wedding. You should realistically set aside a minimum of 10-15% of your total wedding budget for photography that will do your day justice.
- Do they have insurance? – all professional photographers should have public liability and professional indemnity insurance. If they use anyone to help they are legally required to have employers’ liability insurance.
