Different Ways Of Selecting A Resort Photographer

By Joseph Hill


The time to change the picture in your resort website is here or you have just completed building and you have no idea on how to go about this task. The answer is to look for a qualified resort photographer to take the picture for you. However, it is important to carry out some research and have ideas on the best photographer.

You should first take into account what quality and number of pictures you want. This should be decided on both interior and exterior parts of the hotel. Go for the one who has a reputable profile on hotel picture taking. This ensures the image quality is admirable and attracts everyone who sees it to visit your hotel.

The other step you should take is enquiring for ideas on the best professional who have experience in this task from other business who have gone through this task. There are also websites which provides information on photographers with details and sample pictures they have taken. From here, you can be able to assess their capability to deliver the quality needed from their portfolios. Select 3 or 4 photographers and invite them for interviews and during the interviews ask the following questions.

You should know the exact date and time you want the shots taken hence ask the professional will be available on that date. This will help in making sure everything will go on as planned and will not delay your plans.

It is advisable to ask if the expert is the one to take pictures or there will be another person sent to perform the work. A qualified expert is one who takes the shots and not the one who sends other peoples and the employees or their assistance to curry out the task. Be clear you want no one unknown to you should come and start the task.

Negotiate about the price charge after the photographer understands the quality and number of images you want. You also need to be enlightened on whether the charges are priced per photo, per day and any other charges included in the amount. It is good to know if you will be the one providing for lodgings, food, and transport and editing charges. The copyright of the pictures should be discussed to understand to which level you own the photographs.

Beware not to accept services from personnel who have a lot of crews as this will increase the expenses hence charging you high amount of money. Consider the days they will spend in the hotel and the number of pictures they can take in a day. If the photographer gives a number between 6 and 10, then, the service can be hired but if more, watch out not to get poor quality images. One shot should consume between 45 and 60 minutes.

The staff photo should also be discussed on whether to use your model staffs or for the expert to bring models. They arrive in the resort two or three days earlier for preparations. Before the interview ends, ask which channel is to be used to send you the photos and when they are going to be ready.
