The key to finding a wedding photographer you love? Interviewing them before you sign the contract! You\u2019ll be spending almost the entire day with the photographer you choose, so in addition to loving their style, having an in-person interview is a great way to make sure you\u2019ll be happy to have them around. Not sure where to start when it comes to interviewing your wedding photographer of choice? We have a list of questions to ask your photographer to help you find the perfect photographer for your wedding day.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>How would you describe your style?
\n<\/strong>Most shooters use a blend of several different styles of photography. If portraits are important to you, for example, you’ll want to make sure they shoot portraits. Going with the\u00a0style\u00a0a photographer likes to shoot best and has the most experience shooting will give you the best results. Just make sure it\u2019s the style you\u2019re<\/em> going for.<\/p>\n

Have you ever photographed a wedding at our venue before?
\n<\/strong>If the answer is yes, ask to see the images that were shot to make sure they mesh with your vision. If the answer is no, it\u2019s certainly not a deal-breaker. See if the photographer would be willing to check out your location in advance of the wedding to pick backdrops, etc.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nHow many weddings have you shot, and have you shot ones similar to ours?<\/strong>
\nThis is a great question to get an idea of how much experience your photographer has in general. Years are not a good gauge of experience since some wedding photographers may work part time, and only shoot five weddings a year.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nWill there be a second shooter?<\/strong>
\nA second shooter will be a second photographer who will often be positioned at another angle with their camera<\/a> from Buydig.com to get the most from your photos. They can cover more ground and can give you two perspectives on major moments. For instance, one can shoot the groom’s face when he first sees his bride and the other can photograph the bride as she walks down the aisle. But this may cost you extra.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nWhat happens if the photographer is ill?<\/strong>
\nUnfortunately there are things that can happen that are outside of your control. A professional will almost always have a backup plan in the case of an illness or emergency.<\/p>\n

What will you wear on our wedding day? <\/strong>
\nJeans and t-shirts may not be ideal if you\u2019re hosting a black-tie event. The more you ask, the less \u201cunexpected\u201d happenings can occur on your wedding day.<\/p>\n

How and when will we see our proofs?<\/strong>
\nMany photographers do early sneak peeks that they post to Facebook or Instagram to view on your laptop<\/a> or tablet<\/a> from Buydig.com. But it\u2019s best to know beforehand approximately how long you can expect to wait before seeing the bulk of your photos.\"\"<\/a>
\nYou’ve put so much time and effort into planning your wedding you’ll want every special moment captured in photos. You want to use these questions to ensure that the photographer you ultimately choose is a good fit for you and your wedding.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
