Today, we feature my take on photographers. For me, this net can be cast wide open, there are so many styles and differences that each photographer brings to the table. From fashion forward, photo journalistic approaches, to traditional styles where do you begin?
First off, look at the their website and blog. For example, Blue Dandelion Photography shares sneeky peaks of a variety of their photos. When I met with Doug, he told me he does not specifically adhere to timelines. He does this because he learns how his clients feel, maybe they need a break from shooting.... He does more candid, rather than posed shots. Courtney does all the editing, she sees it from her perspective, if Doug did the editing, he'd likely see it from a different perspective. To them, consistency is key and the relationship that is formed with a couple is extremely important to them.
Send an email, make a phone call, see if the photographer responds. mmm, no response? Move on to someone else. Their response time gives you an idea as to how they present themselves professionally. Do you want to work with someone that you repeatedly have to follow-up with?
Get references and call them. Ask questions, what did you like, what didn't you like? Where they on time, how did your photos turn out?
We have many excellent photographers in the greater Madison area. Let us help you with selecting one that is right for you. We'll even go to the appointment with you.
