Tips For Choosing Your Photographer

Choosing your photographer is one of the most important

Aspects of your wedding planning. You will be relying on him or

Her to capture the entire atmosphere and all the many details of

Your wedding – a day which can never be repeated.

Reputation

Ask friends and family, particularly newly-weds for

Recommendations. A photographer’s reputation for delivery is

Usually a good indication of ability.

Advertising

Research websites to find your photographer.

Photographers with a higher profile will have their work

Displayed in a Professional Website.

Cost

As with most things, you get what you pay for. Beware of

Packages that seem too attractive. Digital photography has

Increased the number of dubious photographers offering cheap

Packages. More often than not this ends in disaster. A good

Indication on how much money you should be spending on your

Photographer is 15% of your total wedding budget.

Your instinct

Contact the photographer and set up a meeting or chat on the

Phone. You will be spending a lot of time with him or her on your

Wedding day and you will need to feel confident in their abilities,

As well as feeling relaxed with their personalities.

Delivery of Products

One Day, One function Weddings Will be delivered in +- 3 Months. Busier Months, when Multiple weddings are booked in the same Callender month delivery time could be extend. Please speak to the office for more information. Two- and three-day weddings may also have extended delivery times. If Albums are ordered with a wedding function, please note that you will receive your Digital Album prior to receiving your printed album. Printed Albums delivery time is approximately 4 – 6 weeks after as they are printed in Midrand Gauteng.
