Tip Tuesday

So on Tuesdays on the blog I am going to be giving you a tip or trick that may help with your wedding planning.

Today's tip is all about wedding photography.  I would say that this is an area I am passionate about even though I am not a photographer at all.  This is because the photographer is so essential to the wedding day.  After all, it's the only thing you have to show for that special day.  So choose carefully.  Nothing makes me more nervous than when a bride says, oh we're having our friend take the pictures.  (unless of course that friend is a professional photographer).  It's very crucial that you have someone who can capture your day and who has experience doing so.  So meet with photographers and ask to see their work.  Ask them for past brides emails and get their recommendations.  Do not try to save by hiring a friend, or getting a cheap photographer.  A good photographer will cost good money, but it's an investment really.  Remember, not only is your photographer giving you that entire day, they will spend hours editing your photos.

After you've decided on your photographer, type up a list of important people and pictures you have to have that day.  Then go over it with your photographer.  Giving them a list of parents, grandparents, wedding party, etc names will help them connect and speed the process.

This is a picture from our wedding, three and a half years ago.  I love the pictures and look through them constantly.

There are lots of good photographers right here in Strathroy.  Here are a couple of ladies that I would strongly recommend.
