10 Important Questions to Ask Your Wedding Photographer

To find the best wedding photographer for your big day, interview them before you sign the contract. Since you will spend almost an entire day with the photographer, an in-person or phone interview will assure you that in addition to loving their style, they are pleasant and focused on your desires.

Here are 10 important questions to ask your wedding photographer:

  1. What is your style of photography, describe your shooting style? 

  2. How long have you been photographing weddings?

  3. May we see some of your previous work?

  4. What is included in your package?

  5. Do you have a refund policy or liability insurance?

  6. Are you available on our wedding date?

  7. How long will it take you to deliver our photos?

  8. Do you have any promotions or discounts currently available?

  9. Do you have a backup plan in place?

  10. How would you describe your customer service?

Hidden Wedding Costs and How to Avoid Them

Assistant
Photographer

Some photographers always work with an assistant. Adding an assistant to your contract will most likely incur an additional fee.

When deciding whether or not to add an assistant photographer to your wedding plans, consider the size of your event and the number of guests attending. If you have a large wedding with hundreds of guests, it may be worth the extra expense to ensure that all of your memories are captured. On the other hand, if you’re having a smaller, more intimate wedding, you may not need an assistant photographer.

Professional Editing and High-Resolution Images

Professional photo editing can take your wedding photos from good to amazing. But, this also means that you will pay for the photographer’s time and expertise in editing those photos to create a beautiful and unique wedding album.

Also, your wedding photographer owns the exclusive rights to your wedding photos. So make sure that your photographer offers a print release that includes high-resolution versions as well.

Overtime Fees

Most wedding photographers and videographers are booked for a certain amount of time, so if your wedding runs a little longer than you expected, they’ll charge per hour after the time specified in the contract has expired. To avoid any surprises on your wedding day, be sure to ask your photographer or videographer about their overtime policy before you sign a contract. That way, you’ll know exactly how much it will cost if your wedding runs a little longer than planned.

Bride Tips

A. Wedding receptions typically last around four hours. Take into account additional time for getting dressed and taking photos. This way, you can book your photographer for a more realistic time frame.

B. Get overtime costs in writing (according to regulations, overtime fees shouldn’t be more than 50% more per hour than the regular rate), in case you decide to keep the party going.

To avoid any surprises on your wedding day, be sure to ask your photographer or videographer about their overtime policy before you sign a contract. That way, you’ll know exactly how much it will cost if your wedding runs a little longer than planned.
