💍 Make the Right Choice for Your Big Day
Booking a wedding photographer is a big decision—it’s about more than just beautiful photos. It's about finding someone who understands your vision, communicates clearly, and captures your story effortlessly.
To help you choose the perfect fit, here are 10 essential questions to ask your photographer before signing the contract.
📝 1. Are You Available on Our Wedding Date?
Start with the basics. No availability? No go.
Pro tip: Always have your date confirmed before reaching out.
🎞️ 2. Can We See Full Galleries from Past Weddings?
Highlight reels are great—but full galleries show consistency.
Ask to see a full wedding day to assess how they capture details, lighting, and emotions from start to finish.
📷 3. What Is Your Photography Style?
Is it a documentary, editorial, traditional, or a mix?Make sure their style aligns with your vision.
👥 4. Will You Be the One Photographing Our Wedding?
Some studios work with multiple photographers.It’s important to know who will actually be there on the day—and if you can meet them in advance.
💡 5. How Do You Handle Low Light or Bad Weather?
Weddings don’t always go according to plan.Ask how they work with dim lighting, rain, or indoor venues. Experience matters here.
🗓️ 6. How Many Hours Are Included in Your Packages?
You want to make sure important parts of the day are covered.Discuss how many hours you’ll get and what’s included—getting ready, ceremony, reception?
🖼️ 7. What’s the Delivery Timeline & Format?
When can you expect your photos?Ask about editing time, delivery method (online gallery, USB), and whether prints or albums are included.
💾 8. Do You Offer Backup Equipment or Contingency Plans?
Professional photographers should always have backup cameras and a plan if they get sick or something goes wrong.
💰 9. What’s the Payment Schedule and Cancellation Policy?
Transparency matters.Ask about deposits, final payments, refund policy, and what happens if you need to reschedule.
