Your wedding day:  The one day of your life on which you want no regrets. The best advisers on how to accomplish this are people who deal with weddings all the time, wedding photographers.  Here are some tips on making choices to ensure your special day is smooth sailing and full of fond, happy memories.

–You get what you pay for. We have had a few people come back to us that hired other, less expensive photographers and regretted every moment of it. You are not just paying for pretty photos. You are paying for experience, skill, creativity and professionalism. You are paying for the one thing you get to hold onto and return to anytime you want to revisit your wedding day. Hiring the right photographer – priceless.

–Over-scheduling your day. Because there are so many people relying on you to keep your day on time, if you get behind your photography is the portion of your day which will suffer. Photographers do not have the option to keep you out later than planned because reception venues, caterers, bands, DJs and guests are counting on your being on time. It is our responsibility as photographers to manage your time efficiently. So if your day runs behind it is typically the portrait time in between the ceremony and reception that will suffer.
