 Memories are made to last a lifetime and photographs
are made to last even longer, especially
with today's digital technology. Photos
and videos of your wedding are priceless reminders of
the beauty of the day and the love that you and your
husband share with family and friends, so consider it a
wise investment if you take the time and energy to find
the perfect professional.
Here are some things to consider before you're
ready for your close-up:
Be sure the photographer has done your kind of
wedding before. If your wedding will be held outdoors,
make sure the photographer has done an outdoor
wedding and knows how to adapt to changing
light conditions.
Be sure they can work your site. Some photographers
will not do beach weddings because of the
potential damage to their equipment.
Discuss what they will wear. If you're not having a
formal wedding, where the standard tuxedo would be
worn, talk to the professional about your wishes for his
or her wardrobe.
Ask about the photographer's transportation
needs. Inform them of any travel needs for the wedding
day, such as ceremony and reception sites at
long, difficult distances from each other.
 Be sure to get a cell phone number for contact on
your wedding day - or in case they get lost on that
long difficult ride from ceremony to reception site!
Specify times you'll need them and when and
where they should show up on the morning on the
wedding.
Find out how long it will take to get your proofs
and albums back. A good photographer has a fast
turnaround time, depending on the type of film you've
used.
Be sure they are open to your personal suggestions
and instructions and are not set in their way of
doing things.
Very important: specify the amount of time they
have to take post-ceremony photos. You don't want to
miss half your reception because you're taking an endless
line-up of shots.
