Selecting Your Wedding Photographer

Wedding photography is one of the most demanding areas of professional photography, we recommend
you thoroughly investigate the photographers style, their personality and their packages before
you trust your wedding day to anyone. Never, ever get a friend to do them. Ensure you meet your
wedding photographer before making your final decision, as you don't want to get to your big
day and be worrying about a personality clash between your wedding party and your wedding
photographer. Every wedding photographer has a unique style, and you should also closely examine different styles and decide on photography styles you like and ones you don't.

The best place to start is the internet. Take a look at their web site and make a short list of no more than 5 to consider. The photos on their web site should be their best work, so if you are not impressed, move on. Are they up front about their prices? Is the site more flash than substance? A web site speak volumes about the business.

A good photographer should cost at least $1500 and up to $5000. Outside this range you are probably getting either a beginner or someone who has too much tied up in their studio decor and needs you to help pay for it.

Some good questions to ask your photographer are:

Are we looking at photos that you personally took
How many weddings have you photographed
Do we get to keep the hi-resolution images on CD
Wedding Planning:

The excitement of getting engaged is often replaced by panic and confusion when the time comes to actually plan and co-ordinate the wedding. There is so much to do. Decide up front whether you have time to do it yourself or whether you should seek help from a professional wedding coordinator. Many reception venues will also help you a lot with arranging many other parts of your wedding.

The cost of a professional coordinator is not expensive compared to your overall wedding costs and in many ways they can save you money because they know who are the best suppliers around. If you do decide to do it yourself, then make yourself a list of everything you need to do and when to do it. You are welcome to download the free wedding planner from www.poshphotos.com.au .

Getting the best wedding shot:

Wedding photography is not like other photography. The subject is almost always moving, there are other people buzzing in and around your subject and a very important event is unfolding as you work. Its a mix of portrait, journalistic and action photography, with a generous amount of people management thrown in. How then does Posh Photography get the best wedding shot time after time? I guess experience is a key factor. We can anticipate what is going to happen next. When its a candid photo we usually saw something special about to happen and captured the image at the right time. When its a set up photo, we know where to have people stand for the best light and how to make them feel relaxed. If you are not relaxed, it shows in the photo. When you have a really good photographer directing the day, the photos always look natural and fun.

Good equipment is important, but to be honest its better to have an average camera that you know well then the biggest and best that you haven't figured out. Understanding light and how a camera reacts to light is very important. A camera is much less sophisticated than the human eye so what might look great to people, can turn out bad when photographed. Dealing with harsh sun, random shadows, low light and human emotions all require real skill.
