Choosing a Great Wedding Photographer Part 3

You’re getting closer to knowing all the little things that are important in choosing a great wedding photographer. There are just a few more things I think are important, that I wanted to share. When you’re looking at a photographer’s portfolio, notice what they do in correcting and finishing their photos.

In looking at my photographer’s work, I noticed that she took great photos in certain places—such as places with strong architectural backgrounds and simple surroundings. This … Continue reading

Choosing a Great Wedding Photographer Part 2

I previously went over a few things you’ll want to keep in mind as you choose a wedding photographer, and this topic is so important that I thought it would be worth a little more attention.
