The first step in working with a wedding photographer is to schedule a consultation. During this meeting, you’ll discuss your vision for your wedding day, the style of photography you prefer, and any specific shots or locations you want captured. The photographer will also provide you with a pricing package and contract to review.
Many wedding photographers offer a pre-wedding shoot, also known as an engagement session. This is an opportunity to get comfortable in front of the camera, practice poses, and capture some beautiful photos of the two of you together. It’s also a chance for the photographer to get to know you better and understand your personalities.
On your wedding day, the photographer will arrive early to scout out the best locations for photos and ensure that everything is set up and ready to go. They’ll work with your wedding planner and vendors to coordinate timing and ensure that all the important shots are captured. Throughout the day, they’ll capture candid moments, formal portraits, and everything in between.
After the wedding, the photographer will edit and deliver your photos to you in a timely manner. This may include digital files, prints, or albums, depending on the package you selected. They’ll also provide you with a slideshow or video montage of your wedding day highlights.
It’s important to review your photos carefully and communicate any issues with the photographer promptly so they can be addressed in a timely manner.
