Vintage Wedding? It seems to be a key trend to go back to the old, embracing quality and good value. 'You get what you pay for'...type of Ikea mentality.
Better to invest in a sturdy piece of wooden furniture, and breath into it a new lease of life...!?
Where am I going with this?
Well, it also applies to my industry. It seems, or so both myself & my colleagues are hearing from our customers, that perhaps the cheaper, free Cd providing photographers, are somewhat lacking in the ability, or experience, to provide the basic groups and planning that hold a wedding shoot together, and only concentrating on the 'reportage' element.
Fine if you or your groomsmen know how to organize a crowd in a friendly manner, or choose the best location for light and background to make your couple look stunning, but isn't that what you pay us professionals to do?
It seems that there is a growing knowledge that yes, anyone with a decent SLR can get good shots at a wedding, but that after all is only a small part of what a good wedding photographer needs to be able to do.
Make sure your photographer has the confidence and experience to organize, anticipate and plan, or it may well ruin your glamorous dreams...
