Our current focus is on photography, videography and capturing the moments we want to remember.
This is one area where this DIY bride is torn. As an events person, I understand the importance of having a talented photographer group people together, anticipate memorable moments, and take quality frames in all lighting scenarios. This is an element that cannot be rushed.
This week we are meeting with a few potential photographers that fit into our budget and I want to be prepared with the right questions.
Concerns I have:- I don't want to feel like my wedding day is one long photoshoot
- I'd like our pictures to look natural, no crazy poses
- Capturing the details of the day, group family photos and candid shots are important to us
- Is a 2nd photographer necessary when everyone brings their own digital cameras?
- What should we hire the videographer for? the whole day?
- Photography packages really start to add up, what is really necessary?
- Should we do an engagement photoshoot?
For all the brides out there, I would love some feedback.
hi pam!! i have a thought!! i went to a friend's wedding and they had a 'photobooth' where you could go get your picture taken, printed, and then they put all the pix up on a site. it was great fun for us guests and then the couple got to see everyone having fun! not sure what the cost was. http://weddingsbytwo.smugmug.com/gallery/8724707_2WW6m#576811639_foGuA
