Choosing an Actual Day Photographer

Start early

Good actual day wedding photographers are hard to come by and they are usually booked months or one year in advance. You can start searching by asking your friends for recommendation. You can also call up the photographers listed in Singapore Brides forum.

First of all, check out their online portfolio. If they don't have a website, arrange for an appointment with the photographers to view at their portfolio.

Things to look out

When you look at the photographer's portfolio, check the sharpness, colour tones and whether the photos were well-lit. See if you like the style of the photographer by looking at the photos of indoor, outdoor, tea ceremony, solemnisation and wedding banquet.

Years of experience

Five or more years of experience in wedding photography is best. An experienced photographer can even help advise you on your schedule and help you plan. However, an experienced photographer will usually cost more. Get a less experienced photographer if you are budget conscious and you also need to like the portfolio.

People skills

Talk to the photographer. It is important that he has good people skills as he'll be with you the whole day. He'll also be taking pictures of your friends, relatives and guests. You don't want to have an extra headache on your wedding day.

Work with the photographer
As it is necessary to budget time for taking a variety of photos, discuss wedding coverage together to plan timings. Convey expectations clearly, whether you want a certain pose or more candid shots.

Know the package

There isn't a standard way of charging by the photographers. Photographer will charge you on the number of hours they work, number of photos taken on that day, number of photos to be printed, etc. Ask if you are unsure of the package.

Before you book the photographer

* Check the rate
* Ask about the camera and lens
* How is the digital photos developed? By professional labs?
* Are all the soft copies be returned?
* Are complimentary wedding albums provided and will the photos be arranged for you?
