Weddings are busy, beautiful company, even stressful events. And in the hubbub of all things which makes a marriage, well, a marriage, it's not hard to imagine that something might get missed. That's understandable, however, you want to make certain 'something' doesn't come under the course of missed photographs. That is why probably the most main reasons of wedding ceremony planning must be picking a your photographer. Remember... long afterwards the cake continues to be eaten and the wedding dress is pushed towards the back from the attic, you'll still be looking at the wedding pictures and remembering the joy of your special day.

Most professional wedding photographers possess a check-list they go by; one the bride and groom are usually asked to complete before the wedding. If not, make sure you provide the photographer with a listing of what photos you want taken. If you are unsure of what you need to include in that list, you can find photo check lists in bridal magazines and websites for example shutterfly.com or knotforlife.com. Not utilizing a checklist is requesting trouble... and missed photo ops you may never have again. To avert this unfortunate mishap, make sure to select someone (the bride's mom, a popular aunt or sister in-law) who definitely are accountable for dealing with the photographer; a checks and balances system, you might say.

Owen and Melissa would have benefited greatly from doing this; things got so hectic they ended up without a single shot of just the a couple of them! Thank goodness for cropping tools on photo sites!

Other ideas to bear in mind when hiring your wedding photographer include:

   Examining their portfolio. Do you similar to their work? Could they be creative? May be the lighting and exposure up to par?
   Ask for references-and follow up by contacting one or two of these.
   Remember that not all wedding photographers need to be 'professionals'. There are plenty of hobby photographers whose jobs are top quality and definitely wedding-worthy. Ask friends and family for suggestions, contact your local photography club or even the photo-journalism department of a nearby college or university.
   Make sure the photographer fully explains what you are getting for your money. Are you getting full rights towards the photos? How much time is roofed within the price? Just how long will it be before you receive your photos?
   Get it on paper. Including receipts for payments made and a 'contract' for what you are receiving to acquire your payment.
   Feel confident with the photographer. Do they listen to what you would like?

Your wedding photographer will most likely take up a fair amount of the wedding budget. This is exactly why you should get as much for the money as you possibly can without compromising the quality of your photos.
