Choosing the right photographer

So for many of you finding the right photographer, deciding what to wear for a session, etc can be a challenge. So I’m here to help!

Over the next 5 weeks, I’ll be sharing tips with you to make this process from the beginning to the end so much easier. Make sure you follow along to catch them all!

Let’s jump straight in with tip #1:

CHOOSING THE RIGHT PHOTOGRAPHER

1 – Look at their portfolio, make sure you like their style

Have a look at the photographer’s portfolio and ask yourself if you’d be happy with similar photographs? If the answer is yes then bookmark their page, get in touch with them.

2- Print or File

Do you need printed photographs or digital files of the end product? Not every photographer is providing all. If you`d like digitals then make sure the photographer offers that, otherwise you have the wrong photographer.

3 – Meet them

A meeting is a completely different experience to having an email conversation, it’s a much more personal experience and usually involves a nice cuppa tea, or coffee, ask questions, go through their portfolio and see how you feel with them. Do they put you at ease? Do you feel they understand what you want? The more relaxed you are around your photographer, the more natural and at ease your photos will be.

4 – Make sure you connect

The reason this is so important is because photographers are there to capture some of the most important moments of your life you need to feel comfortable being around them so they can achieve the most natural images that portray you in the best way.

5 – Could you put your trust in them capturing one of the most important days of your life?

If the answer is no, ask yourself why? Asking yourself this will help you on your journey in finding the right photographer for you. Trust is a huge part when hiring someone as your photographer.

I hope these tips help you find the right photographer!
