Questions For Potential Wedding Photographers

By Dawn Williams


Utah wedding photographers are a common fixture in receptions and ceremonies when couples are tying the knot. They are in charge of documenting the whole event. Not all will be good at what they do so you have to be selective if you want great photos. Here are some questions to ask when you are interviewing a candidate.

It takes skill to be able to produce a good photo. Equipment, environment, and other such factors will have to be considered. This is why it would be advantageous to hire someone who is experienced. Find out how long your candidate has been taking pictures. Ask about his past projects and consider if these have a similar concept to yours.

Request your prospect to let you view his portfolio. If you have questions about the shots, then do not hesitate to ask. Looking at his portfolio is an opportunity to discover what his style is like and what kind of shots he is really good at. Observe if his images have a consistent quality. If you like what he has done, then evaluate him further.

Choose the one who has all his bases covered. Anything can happen before or during the event. One of the cameras could break down or the artist could get sick. What is important is that the professional has a plan if any of these should occur. Ask him how he will ensure that everything will proceed as planned.

Determine what kind of packages are being offered. Some will be quite comprehensive while others may only include the basics. Clarify what is included and what is not. Determine what kind of shots will be taken and make sure that this is a level of coverage that you want. Moreover, ask how many hours he will be there to shoot.

Note how much these packages will cost. Aside from the total, you also have to be on the lookout for things that can mean additional fees. Ask what kind of rates will apply if you want him to stay longer. Determine what the extra charges are for traveling, editing, going to another venue, and so on.

You may have something very specific in mind. If this is the case, then find out if there are customization options for you. Since this is your big day, you will naturally want to record the most significant moments. Determine if he is willing to obtain the images you want to include in the album.

The question of what the output would be and when you will be getting it is something that should also be answered. You may want to get digital copies in a particular format or get a number of prints. Ask him if you get to select the shots that go into the final collection and when you will be able to view the images.

With so many Utah wedding photographers to choose from, it is important that you are thorough in your research. Do not be shy about asking questions. You need to do this if you want to determine how good he is. Moreover, clarify what is included in the offer and determine what kind of copies you will be receiving.
