Choosing the perfect photographer for you…
Photographs are an investment that last a lifetime. You will be sharing these images, hanging them in your home, and looking at them for years to come. That’s why it is so important to choose the right photographer for you. In an oversaturated industry this can be a difficult and daunting task, but it shouldn’t be. Here are some questions you should ask yourself when determining who would be the perfect fit.
First, does the photographer even photograph what it is you’re looking for? You wouldn’t want to hire a sports photographer to take your family Christmas photos. Not because they couldn’t do a great job, but because this isn’t what they are normally used to, or specialize in. There are an endless amount of photographers out there to work with, choose one who regularly photographs what it is you are looking for.
Second, do they match your style? With today’s technology there are a million different ways to make a photo look unique. From lighting, to angles, and editing, every photographer has their own style. It’s important you choose a photographer whose style feels like you. When deciding on a photographer, look at their social media or website to see if their style is a good fit for you.
Third, do you vibe with them? It’s important you choose someone who has similar beliefs and passions as you. You don’t have to necessarily agree on worldly issues, but you wouldn’t want to hire someone who doesn’t believe in marriage to photograph your wedding. They’re capable of it, but you can see passion in a photographer's work when they believe in what they are photographing.
Photographers are responsible for capturing the most important moments of your life. These photos last a lifetime, be sure you’re going to like looking at them.
