When most couples plan their wedding day they take a lot of things into consideration. They think about vacation times when trying to coordinate. Or they plan the day according to the best time for family to come into town. Or they plan it based upon maybe available venues, like the church or the restaurant.
But one of the biggest things they fail to plan for on the wedding day is the photographer. This is no small issue. And I am not just saying it because I am a wedding photographer.
No planning the wedding day with the wedding photographer in mind could mean all the difference in the world. Especially when you realize that the photos are what are going to last a lifetime.
What are the things to think about when making plans with the photographer in mind. The time and the date.
Let’s begin talking about time. How many people do you think would want their photographer to rush taking the photos? I am pretty confident most couples will not agree to that.
Well without even thinking about your photographer, a lot of times couples will do just that. They will force the photographer to rush his shots.
How so you say? A good amount of times, for instance, a couple will have a time let’s say 1-2 pm. With the reception beginning at 2:30. How many shots do you think the photographer can realistically get in with only half an hour to work with? Not many.
Worse yet, what if he does get all the shots? Do you think they are going to take good quality shots when they are rushed? No way.
So plan the times for the wedding and the reception with enough space in between to take all the photos.
The second factor to consider when planning is to check your photographer’s availability.
Most probably don’t realize this, but most good photographers will be booked months in advance. And if you are dealing with let’s say a large photography company, they may have several photographers.
Well making wedding plans without thinking about the availability of the photographer could be a nightmare. Because when you reserve that special day, without making sure your photographer is available, come wedding day you might get a shock when you find somebody totally different.
This can happen when dealing with a large photographer company. You might not realize they have plenty of photographers on staff, and if the photographer you fell in love with is booked, unless you specifically ask, the company might not tell you. When your wedding day comes, they might just outsource their work or a second rate photographer might show up.
So be ready by not letting this happen. Planning that special wedding day can be truly wonderful. Make sure that your plan has the wedding photographer in mind as well.
