You’ll want to look back on the images with pride and treasure them for years to come, so finding a supplier you trust to showcase your day in the best possible way is essential. After settling on your budget, it’s time to consider what type of style and package you’re after. Every supplier will have a preferred photography style, and it’s important to discover your preferences. If you’re camera shy, it’s best to opt for someone with a documentary style who can blend into the background to capture natural and relaxed shots. An editorial style would be perfect for chic and contemporary couples to capture quirky shots full of character. Think unusual angles, fun lighting, bold backdrops and magazine vibes! Traditional photography is ideal for those after romantic photos that will stand the test of time. The dark and moody style offers dramatic shots with distinctive use of light and shadow to create added emotion. Fine art photography focuses on clean, soft and delicate images that are light and airy. Once you settle on a style you love, it’s time to search online for local companies to keep travel costs down. Head to websites and social media pages to get an idea of each photographer’s work and read reviews to find out what other couples thought of the team and the service offered throughout the whole experience from start to finish. Look at the packages on offer and prices to see if the team would work for your requirements. Are you after a full-day package to capture the whole day, a half-day or less? Once you settle on a few companies, ask to see a few of their recent wedding galleries to see their work throughout events and not just the highlights to help narrow down your search. If possible, arrange to meet photographers in person to discuss your wedding in more detail and gauge the team. You must feel comfortable with the supplier, as you’ll be sending most of the special day in their presence. If meeting in person isn’t possible, a Zoom meeting will be beneficial. For those nervous about having their photos taken, we suggest booking an engagement shoot to get used to being in front of the camera. This is a perfect opportunity to meet the team, practice shots, and glimpse what your wedding images will be like. It’s the ideal warm-up before the big day. To help inspire, we’ve gathered local suppliers to showcase the very best photographers for all types of weddings.
