Selecting Your Wedding Photographer
Weekly Wedding Tip
brought to you by bridalguide.com
"When picking a photographer, be sure to view complete albums of several weddings that he shot and assembled. That will help you judge the consistency of his work, as well as his ability to tell the complete story of the wedding."
In addition to seeing the complete wedding album - you will also want to look at the album style as each photographer has their own unique way of presenting the photos to showcase the wedding. I recently wrote an article on How to Find the Right Wedding Photographer For You after attending the NJ Wedding Salon that mentioned this. Below is an excerpt from the article and you can see the entire article here.
View the Album Styles
At the show, each photographer had albums on display to give you an idea of how they look when finished. It's great to be able to see all the different options as you visit each photographers booth. There are many different album styles out there, but one that stood out to me at the NJ Wedding Salon was from Romeo Creations. They offer the option to have a one of a kind wedding album that features a handmade metal cover. The album cover images range from landscape to floral to the abstract. An absolutely stunning presentation.

cool link, thanks for sharing with us.
It's so really important to view a wedding photographer's work over several weddings to get a real sense of consistency in style. As a wedding photographer myself, I always show multiple weddings to my clients so give them a sense of my style and my ability to give the same quality consistently. So brides, make sure you don't only review their favorite photos, look at all of them! The good photographers will always shine in this way!
It is really important to have a great photographer...a photo will keep your wedding memories forever so it better be just great shots.
Wedding Photography is a very important part of any wedding so it should be planned out well. After all, you want to have a good wedding photographer for your wedding day.
I agree that the photographer is one of the most important choices a bride and groom have to make. After all, once the big day is over, it is really all that is left, so it is so important to capture those special moments. My sister got married a month ago and used Craig Paulson as her photographer. His website is cpaulson.com and I would recommend him to anyone! He was so great and so relaxed and so confident and friendly, and to top it off, his work is truly incredible. I didn't even notice he was taking our pictures and he took so many amazing shots!
We booked with Warwick Studios. The album was simply amazing and we got it really fast. I'm really glad I put extra money in the photography budget, so worth it. The normal photos were way better than our wedding video.
