GETTING STARTED WITH CHOOSING YOUR UTAH

WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER

Having recently just been married myself in Salt Lake City, I know the stress and frustration many brides-to-be often

experience when seeking the perfect photographer for their Utah wedding.

Selecting a photographer to capture your wedding day is probably one of the most important hires you will ever make,

so it is vital that you take the necessary time and effort to find just the right one.

First, know your style.

visually that is.

Determine what effects you may want, such as sepia-toned or photos printed on watercolor

paper.

How about the black and white pictures versus color photographs ratio? Many brides opt for a photographer that

offers a well-balanced mix of traditional photographs and journalistic candid shots.

Second, begin your actual search through referrals.

Family and recently married friends are usually the best place to start.

You can also get credible recommendations from other wedding professionals you are employing

such as your planner, caterer, or florist.

Third, prepare yourself for several meet and greets.

Many couples, with the exception of a lucky few, will have to go through more than a couple

of photographers.

Experienced photographers will have a portfolio of their best work to show potential clients, which should be one of

the biggest factors when deciding on the right one.

You should not commit to a photographer (even verbally) before you have had the chance to

review their portfolio.

Careful attention to the portfolio will help give you the best overall sense and impression of the

photographer and their personal style.

Last but certainly not least when it comes to choosing the perfect Utah wedding photographer, is not underestimating the significance of a good working relationship (if not friendship).

Many of the best and most important shots of your wedding album will be intimate shots and

photos taken behind the scene.

You want an amiable photographer that you and your guests will be comfortable with which will

enable beautiful and genuine photographs.
