Are you in the middle of planning for your wedding day? If so, then you are probably up to your eyeballs in bridal magazines, invoices from venues, florists and caterers and phone calls from the bridal party about their outfits and accessories. Therefore, we totally get it if you are just now getting around to figuring out how to find a professional photographer that will not break your budget.
If it seems like an impossible task, it’s not. As a matter of fact, we have five tips that will not only assist you in getting the wedding photographer of your dreams, but one that you can afford as well.
Ask around. The great thing about knowing married people is that they’ve already been where you are, especially when it comes to wedding planning. If you know a few newlyweds or you’ve looked through some couple’s wedding books and their pictures really stood out to you, don’t hesitate to ask them for some referrals. They can probably connect you with some people who are both good and inexpensive.
Get a package deal. As you were doing some research on honeymoons, you probably noticed that all-inclusive vacation packages can save you quite a bit of money. The same is true when it comes to getting a photographer. If you opt to purchase a package that comes with both a photographer as well as a videographer, you can usually get a really great discount rate. Oh, and if you find ones who do contract work rather than are employed through a commercial company, you can save just that much more.
