Tip 1:

Look at what your wedding budget is before you even start looking for a photographer. Having a number in mind with how much money you can spend is super important when searching for your wedding photographer. There are tons of photographers out there for all different kinds of budgets and styles. A huge factor in the price of the photographer is the amount of time you want captured. Some photographers offer different package pricing that covers up to a certain amount of time. Other wedding photographers only offer one package that covers your entire day. If you find a wedding photographer you like then talk to them about ways you can fit them into your budget. Consider cutting time off of the reception or when your getting ready.

Tip 2:

Know what type of style you want. With so many different photographers out there means tons of different photo styles. We recommend that you put together a mood or inspiration board of some photos and styles that you enjoy.
