Make Your Wedding Day Photography Amazing

Wedding photography is an essential component to ensure that everything on your special day is captured in its purity. Those moments with your family and friends are precious. It is beautiful to look back at them and hear a different story about what was happening in the image, something you might not be aware of before. While for some, it is a luxury they can’t afford, there are plenty of methods to find an affordable photographer. You can find one who is also experienced and has the necessary equipment to do a stellar job. Although we all have that one friend with an expensive-looking camera, unless they have been trained as a photographer, then shelve the idea of having them as a photographer.

Maximise Your Budget

Many couples would rather spend a large chunk of their wedding budget to choose an excellent photographer and penny-pinch in other areas. To do so is understandable as the pictures will last a lifetime, and they need to be shot by a professional who understands what they are doing. However, other couples might not have enough of a budget to spend on a photographer, but there are ways to save money. A couple can reduce the number of shooting hours, maybe inviting the photographer to take a bride and groom shoot, the ceremony and bridal preparation. The rest of the wedding album can be scheduled for a later stage. One can encourage guests to take pics of the reception and upload them online or to a specially created email address. However, those pictures won’t be the best quality, but it’s a way to get guests involved.

Find A Photography-Friendly Venue

Although finding the perfect venue has little to do with the images you want, it is a rather important point to think about. The light coming through into the venue is an essential aspect of getting beautiful pictures, especially if the event will stretch until the night. It is also the same when getting married in a chapel where natural light is abundant. Ensure that the venue will have lights or hire spotlights that will enhance the colour.

Tips To Look Your Best

Wedding photography is an art, and you want to look your best, not sticking out like a sore thumb. It means hiring a stylist, professional hair and make-up artists that have the experience to make any bride look their best. And be sure to have a hair and make-up trial about a month before the wedding to make clear if they are the right one for the job. With their experience, your hair and make-up should be immaculate and not be smudged while still saying “I Do” but at least lasts until the first round of pictures after the ceremony. Touch-ups will cost extra as the make-up artist needs to remain throughout the entire event to ensure you are still looking your best. A stylish that understands wedding photography and styles a client accordingly. The same requirements should be used when finding a professional hair and make-up artist.

Be Decisive

You have a vision of how you want your pictures to be like, so do tell the photographer that you have hired what you expect from them. It will help the photographer create photographs that will amaze you. If you have a folder of your favourite photo ideas, then send them to your photographer and ask if some of your favourite shots are possible. Do this well ahead of time to give the photographer enough planning and preparation time. Some ideas may be restricted due to location, season and time of day.
